verse 1:
Dm Am G F E
How did it feel when it came alive and took you
Dm Am G F E
Out of the black? It broke your skin and shook through
Dm Am Bb E
Every part of me, every part of you
[Refrão]Dm F E
You made a fool out of me and took the skin off my back running
Dm F E
So don't breathe when I talk cuz you haven't been spoken to
Dm F E
I've got a gun for a mouth and a bullet with your name on it
Dm F E
But a trigger for a heartbeat and blood for an empty pocket
Break:
Dm Am Bb E
verse 2:
Dm Am G F E
I never knew why and you didn't care when

And I promised you like you promised me
Dm Am Bb E
But those vows we made fucked it up for free
Interlude: riff at the bottom

[Refrão]Dm F E
You made a fool out of me and took the skin off my back running

So don't breathe when I talk cuz you haven't been spoken to

I've got a gun for a mouth and a bullet with your name on it
Dm F E
But a trigger for a heartbeat and blood for an empty pocket
