[Verse 1]
E
You're staring at me, the same way you did, when I first met you
A Am
Hallways of cologne and perfume was all I remember
E
Holding our tongues together as if we're both strangers
A Am
But silence wasn't something, I was ever afraid of—
E
But being left with the taste of regret
A Am
Was all I had left to hold on to
 
[Chorus]
E
Cause I took every song I wrote for you
 
And buried them in the ground
A Am
To remind myself whatever we had died when we drowned
E
And I took every song I wrote for you
 
And buried them in the ground
A Am
To remind myself whatever we had died when we drowned
 
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
E
And now I found myself alone again
A Am
Embraced by the cold touch of the rain
E
Forced to come to terms with why you left
A Am
Feelin' so bent out of shape
E
I couldn't recognize my own reflection
A Am
Shipwrecked and sinking to the bottom of the ocean—
E A
I'd come to realize, that you can't save me
Am
No one can
 
[Chorus]
E
Cause I took every song I wrote for you
 
And buried them in the ground
A Am
To remind myself whatever we had died when we drowned
E
And I took every song I wrote for you
 
And buried them in the ground
A Am
To remind myself whatever we had died when we drowned
 
[Bridge]
E
You're so toxic, and I'm so caustic
A
We were just two chemicals that never bonded
E
You're so toxic, and I'm so caustic
A
We were just two chemicals that never bonded
E
You're so toxic, and I'm so caustic
A
We were just two chemicals that never bonded
 
[Outro]
E
You're so toxic
 
(Cause I took every song I wrote for you)
 
And I'm so toxic
 
(And buried them in the ground)
A
We were just two chemicals
 
(To remind myself whatever we had)
 
That never bonded
 
(Died when we drowned and I)
E
You're so toxic
 
(Took every song I wrote for you)
 
And I'm so toxic
 
(And buried them in the ground)
A
We were just two chemicals
 
(To remind myself whatever we had)
 
That never bonded
 
(Died when we drowned)
 
[Outro]
E
