capo on 1st fret
verse 1
Am C
you said take the violin that you hang on your wall
G
stick it under your bed before it crumbles and falls
Am C
just dont open your eyes before counting to ten
G
i can hardly remember, just the smell of your hands
Am C
as they danced on my body, running over my pores
G
with the force of steering wheel crushing my bones
Am C
i said you smell like the devil but you feel like the lord
G
and when i think of perfection you know i’m thinking of your
Am C
voice when you tell me you dont call him your baby
G
because that was the name that you rightfully gave me
Am C
and its foolish to share with someone else
chorus:
Am C G
and my heart goes bum bum bum bum bum
Am C G
bum bum bum bum bum
verse 2:
Am C
but you admit that you're lonely, you're as cold as a statue
G
pleading fuck me on the marble that was used to create you
Am C
i cant stand that you're talking when you shouldn't be living
G
i didn't dodge all your bullets i just denied that they hit me
Am C
so when my body is bleeding i wont admit that this hurts
G
because admitting isn't fixing so then what is it worth
Am C
so to say you're unhappy is like saying you're sorry
G
its nothing that i care to hear
chorus:
Am C G
bum bum bum bum bum
Am C G
bum bum bum bum bum
Am C G
bum bum bum bum bum
verse 3:
Am C
so now the tears in your jeans are the holes in your armor
G
you're the thoughts that i feared, you're the mountain i've conquered
Am C
if i told you i loved you would you reach out and touch me
G
you taste like the ocean and your body’s disgusting
Am C
the only reason you breathe is to sleep through the night
G
the only reason you speak is to tell me i’m fine
Am C
the only reason you breathe is to sleep through the night
G
the only reason you speak is to state that you’re mine
Am C G
and my heart goes bum bum bum bum bum
Am C G
bum bum bum bum bum
