Capo on 7th fret




Intro: C5 - F5 - C5 - C5 - C5

C5                           F5
And she has known such great pain
                   C5
Haunted dreams as a child
                  C5
The near constant presence of evil ever since

C5                              F5
  And she has felt the touch of awful naked men
        C5                                      C5
Battled addiction and depression and attempted suicide

C5                         F5
  Her arms remember razor blades
                              C5                 C5
Fifty scars that speak of self-inflicted wounds

C5                          F5
  Six hours after I meet her she's feeling trapped
                      C5                  C5
Two groups of friends offering opposite ideas

C5
 Everyone's asleep
F5 
 The sun is rising
C5                                     C5
 And she drinks long from a bottle of liquor
C5                                  F5
 And takes the razor blade from the table 

And locks herself in the bathroom
C5                                         C5
She cuts herself using the blade to write 'fuck up'
C5                     D5
Large across her left forearm

A5                       E5
And to write love on her arms
A5                       E5
And to write love on her arms
A5                       E5
And to write love on her arms

A5
And this one's for Rene
E5
And this one's for myself
