Intro:
E5 C5 G5 D5 x4
Verse:
E5 C5 G5
A cherry bomb, you are a mystery
E5 C5 G5
Exploded, sparkling quiet nights
E5 C5 G5
My teenage heart packed all my misery, baby
E5 C5 G5
To fingertips that might ignite
E5 C5 G5
And all along you knew my story, didn't you
E5 C5 G5
And all night long I carried yours
E5 C5 G5
Your blood was mixed wine and robbery, baby
E5 C5 G5
And left us always wanting more

Chorus:
E5 C5 G5 D5
So don't sing me your songs about the good times
E5 C5 G5 D5
Those days are gone and you should just let them go
E5 C5 G5 D5
And God help the man who says if you'd have known me when
E5 C5 G5 D5
Old haunts are for forgotten ghosts
E5 C5 G5 D5
Old haunts are for forgotten ghosts

VERSE
E5 C5 G5
Cherry bomb, your love is surgery
E5 C5 G5
Removing what you don't regard
E5 C5 G5
And every breath felt like a funeral, baby
E5 C5 G5
While you were packing up your car
E5 C5 G5
And with the window down I hear your tired mouth
E5 C5 G5
You borrowed everything and wore all your old welcomes out
E5 C5 G5
And shame on you, my love you sold your youth away
E5 C5 G5
Memories are sinking ships that never would be saved

E5 E5
And shame, shame, shame, shame on you
