Chords are as follows:

E5 - B5 - C5 - D5 (2x)

      G5      -      D5
You're bad for me I clearly get it 
      C5                  D5 
I don't see how something good could come from loving you 
      G5            D5
The death of me must be your mission 
      C5            D5                              E5
Cause with every hug and kiss you're snatching every bit of strength 
      B5      -      C5            D5
That I'm gon need to fight off the inevitable 
      E5            B5            C5            D5      
And it's a heart breaking situation I'm up in, but I can't control 

[Chorus] 
You're just like poison 
Slowly moving through my system 
Breaking all of my defenses with time 
You're just like poison and I just don't get it 
How can something so deadly feel so right? 
I'm not sure of what to do it's a catch 22 
cause the cure is found in you I don't want it but I do 
You're just like poison 
My affliction, I'm addicted, I can't lie 
Kiss me one more time before I die 

[Verse 2] 
You aint right take me high 
Then that high it subsides 
And my body flat lines 
Then you come to revive 
Wait wait wait I'm alive 
But how long will it last 
Will it all come crashing down? 
How many doses am I needing now? 
What's the prognosis will you be around? 
Or am I just another victim of an assassin that broke my heart down 

[Chorus] 
Baby you're just like poison 
Slowly moving through my system 
Breaking all of my defenses with time 
You're just like poison 
And I just don't get it 
How can something so deadly 
Feel so right 
I'm not sure what to do 
It's a catch 22 
Cause the cure is found in you 
I don't want it but I do 
You're just like poison 
My affliction, I'm addicted, I cant lie 
Kiss me one more time before I die 

[Bridge] 
It's just not my body (No) 
It's my mind, you don't know 
How many times I told myself 
This cant do (cant do) 
And that I don't need you (No I don't need you)(no) 
It's so unfair(fair) that I find myself right back in your care(care) 
And what's good is that when you're not always there (there there) 
You're no good for my health (my heath) 
You're just like poison (whoa whoa whoa) (repeat) 

[Chorus] 
You're just like poison 
Slowly moving through my system 
Breaking all of my defenses with time 
You're just like poison 
And I just don't get it 
How can something so deadly 
Feel so right 
I'm not sure of what to do 
It's a catch 22 
Cause the cure is found in you 
I don't want it but I do 
You're just like poison 
My affliction, I;m addicted, I cant lie 
Baby Kiss me one more time 
you're just like poison 
Slowly moving through my system 
Breaking all of my defenses with time 
You're just like poison 
And I just don't get it 
How can something so deadly 
Feel so right 
I'm not sure what to do 
It's a catch 22 
Cause the cure is found in you 
I don't want it to 
You're just like poison 
I'm addicted, I cant lie 
Kiss me one more time 
Before I die 
(na na na na)
