(What do you do when you know something's bad for you
but you still can't let go?)


        Em                      C7
I was naive, your love was like candy

Em                                       C7
artificially sweet, I was deceived by the wrapping

                   Em                       C7
Got caught in your web and I learned how to bleed

                   Em                   C7
I was prey in your bed and devoured completely


       Em                  G
And it hurts my soul cause I can't let go

          Am                  Am/B  C                  C/D
All these walls are caving in, I can't stop my sufferin'

Em                    G
I hate to show that Ive lost control

         Am                   Am/B
Cause I, I keep going right back

C
To the one thing that I need

   Em
To walk away from

C7
Yeaah...

   Em                         C7
(I need to get away from you, need to walk away from you
get away, walk away, walk away. . .)

               Em                         C7
I should have known that I was used for amusement(for amusement)

                          Em
Couldn't see through the smoke,

                 C7
It was all an illusion

               Em
Now I've been licking my wounds,(licking my wounds) but the venom seeps

C7
 deeper (deeper, deeper)

            Em
We both can seduce, but darlin' you hold me prisoner (prisoner)


               Em                G
Oh, I'm about to break, I can't stop this ache

     Am                        Am/B  C              C/D
I'm addicted to your lure, and I'm feedin' for a cure

Em                 G
Every step I take leads to one mistake

Am                      Am/B   C                   C/D
I keep going right back to the one thing that I need

Em                               G
Oh, I can't mend this sore state I'm in

        Am                      Am/B  C           C/D
Getting nothing in return, what did I do to deserve

Em
The pain of this slow burn

G
And everywhere I turn,

Am                      Am/B   C
I keep going right back to the one thing that I need

Em
To walk away from

C7
yeahh...
I need to get away from you, need to walk away from you

B7                           B7/A
Every time I try to grasp for air

           B7/G
I am smothered in despair

B7/F#      Em    B7    Em
It's never over, over, oh oh. . .

B7                                     B7/A
Seems I'll never wake from this nightmare,

           B7/G
I let out a silent prayer

B7/F#      Em     B7  Em
Let it be over, ovvvvver

Am                     Am/G                B7
Inside I'm screaming, begging, pleading no more (oooh)

            Em                    C7
Now what to do, my heart has been bruised

                Em                        C7
So sad but it's true, each beat reminds me of you


      Em                       G
Oooh It hurts my soul, cause I can't let go

Am                             Am//B   C             
C/D
All these walls are caving in, I can't stop my sufferin'

Em                   G
I hate to show that I've lost control

         Amm               Am/B         C                  C/D
Cause I, I keep going right back to the one thing that I need

    Em                  G
Oh, I'm about to break, I can't stop this ache

       Am              Am/B    C                   C/D
I'm addicted to your lure, and I'm feedin' for a cure

Em                G
Every step I take leads to one mistake

Am                 Am/G        C                  C/D
I keep going right back to the one thing that I need

Em                         G
Oh, I can't mend this torn state I'm in

         Am                    Am/B  C            C/D
Getting nothing in return, what did I do to deserve

Em
The pain of this slow burn

G                     Am                       Am/B    C
And everywhere I turn, I keep going right back to the one thing that I need

Em
To walk away from

   C7

I need to get away from you, need to walk away from you
get away, walk away, walk away [repeat until fade]


Hopefully these chords are ok, I have played it through a couple of times and it is ok. 
is easy to apply a picking pattern to them too, but I haven't had time to tab that out! ENJOY!
