Intro: C-Fmaj7-C-Cmaj9-C

C                           Fmaj7
And she has known such great pain
                   C
Haunted dreams as a child
                  Cmaj9
The near constant presence of evil ever since

C                              Fmaj7
  And she has felt the touch of awful naked men
        C                                      Cmaj9
Battled addiction and depression and attempted suicide

C                         Fmaj7
  Her arms remember razor blades
                              C                 Cmaj9
Fifty scars that speak of self-inflicted wounds

C                          Fmaj7
  Six hours after I meet her she's feeling trapped
                      C                  Cmaj9
Two groups of friends offering opposite ideas

C
 Everyone's asleep
Fmaj7 
 The sun is rising
C                                     Cmaj9
 And she drinks long from a bottle of liquor
C                                  Fmaj7
 And takes the razor blade from the table 

And locks herself in the bathroom
C                                         Cmaj9
She cuts herself using the blade to write 'fuck up'
C                     D7
Large across her left forearm

Am                       E
And to write love on her arms
Am                       E
And to write love on her arms
Am                       E
And to write love on her arms

Am
And this one's for Rene
E
And this one's for myself

 Love can change life
