VERSE
               G
Waking up your neighbors downstairs,
Em7
I've been inside your bedroom a thousand years.
           C9
And as you tie me to the bed for good I say
       G
that I want you in the most unromantic way.

    C9                   Em
Louisiana, you're torturing me with a beautiful face.
             C9
Ana come on, I thought we had a damn good thing.
               G                   E74
A penny in the couch and a diamond ring.

CHORUS
             E            C
So baby stay away from my friends,
         Am7          E74
'cause I need them to carry me.
          E               C
When it's over I'll count back from ten,
            C' (twice) E74              C (once)
and you can list-en to glass hearts shattering.

VERSE
        G
I don't know how you got into me,
             Em7
down my throat and made a home in my veins.
                    C9
They used to be the rivers that would take us away,
                 G
but now you only call me every Christmas and my birthday.
                C9                      A
I still can't believe how you look next to me,
            C9              A (once)           
just like a strip club bedroom scene.

CHORUS
          E            C
Baby stay away from my friends,
         Am7          E74
'cause I need them to carry me.
          E               C
When it's over I'll count back from ten,
            C' (twice) E74                   (break)
and you can list-en to something that you've never heard before.

INTERLUDE
Em C Em C (break)

VERSE
                             G
But you don't know what it's like
                                C9
to wake up in the middle of the night,

scaring the thought of kissing razors.
     G
This blood evacuation is telling me to cave in.
C9
Stay away.

OUTRO
G        C9                  G (once)
        Just stay away from my friends.
