Verse 1:
      F                  G               C                 C/B
These two back teeth are ground meat I barely slept this week, but 
      F                G             E             F
You're lovely in the morning all reminding me why I should be sorry
     F              G          C                C/B
Say, "I love your brain but I hate it when it pushes me away." 
     F                G               E                 F
Well it's been down so now you're finally finding out that I’m
 F                  G            C                     C/B
Not supposed to get better. But I said I won't be quite like this 
 F                   G
Forever 'cause I'm a liar and a thief


Repeat Intro (slow down during C to Csus2 part)


Bridge:
   Em                                 C(sus2)
Well there's an easy way to wind your watch 
   Bb                   Am
Come here and take it off, I'll keep it...
 F                              C
Safely in the back where I can clean it, I mean it
        F                Am
There is no time like the present
    F                G
or something just as stupid. 


Verse 2:
            F                 G        C                   C/B
I'll tell ya I could make you happy.  I could make you coffee 
    F         G          E                F
when I  wake up if you haven't made some already. 
           F               G              C    C/B    Am
There's a ticking but it's subtle and you'd barely even notice 
           F                    G
But you'll know it    when your eyes they start to focus.

          F        G        C              C/B 
Until then, I'm around in a hot room by myself
     F              G                E               F
Organizing all the ways that I could take all of the things you love away
F                G              C            C/B
  So I put it on you 'cause it's easier to do
               F               G                 E            F
I'll watch you smoke until you know me, 'til you're dizzy and you're lonely
            F         G
Make the move,      I am leaving it up to you.


    C              C/B              Am

End on C



This is a great song and its fun to play on guitar
The strumming rhythm should be pretty easy to get down
 
A couple notes on the song:
-The C/B chord during the verses isnt very pronounced, 
you could skip it but I think it sounds nice.
-Laura Stevenson throws in the same hammer-ons that appear in the intro 
(during the C, Am and G chord) throughout the rest of the song.

I hope this is helpful
