verse 1
D/E D/G
I'm a wreck, I'm out of time, I barely made it out alive
D D/C
I'm not bent, I'm not cracked, I'm just broken
D/E D/G
I watched the fire, burn the sea, I wrapped my car around a tree
D D/C
Hold me up, underneath, this heavy burden
Pre-Chorus 1
E5 C5 G5
There's a halo in the distance
E5 C5 D5
Salvation's barely out of reach
[Refrão]G5
Torn apart like the brokenhearted
F#5
Up in smoke with the fire we started
Em C
Misery loves company, I don't need anyone
G5
Smash it up like there's no tomorrow
F#5
Leave me here with the fear and sorrow
Em C
Misery loves company, I don't need anyone
verse 2
D/E D/G
Tied up to a heart of stone, I screamed into a microphone
D D/C
I burned the bridge, so I won't find my way home
D/E D/G
Lay with me, I can't sleep, misery loves company
D D/C
When I'm bent, when I'm cracked, when I'm broken
Pre-Chorus 2
E5 C5 G5
There's a halo in the distance
E5 C5 D5
Salvation's barely out of reach

Up in smoke with the fire we started

Misery loves company, I don't need anyone

Smash it up like there's no tomorrow

I don't need anyone, I don't need anyone
Bridge
G D Em C
G D
Fifteen times a night, when the sun's gone down
Em
In the dark awake, and you're not around
C
And the closest thought is the edge of oblivion
G D
Fifteen times a day when you check your phone
Em
And it won't be there and you're all alone
C
'Cause we always lived on the edge of oblivion
G D
Left to find our way through a Hitchcock film
Em
In an empty bed with an hour to kill
C
'Cause it's only fun on the edge of oblivion (oblivion)
[Refrão]G5
Torn apart like the brokenhearted
F#5
Up in smoke with the fire we started

Misery loves company, I don't need anyone
G5
I don't need anyone
F#5
I don't need anyone

I don't need anyone
C
I don't need anyone, I don't need anyone
