Intro: Ebm--


Verse 1:
Ebm                          Abm
  Love, bring me the head of jealousy 
                               Ebm
His curse is the poison on her lips 
                       Abm
A love as certain as a sinking ship
Unstoppable


Refrain 1:
B            Abm
This isn't a dream
                 Ebm Bb
this is what you are 
    B             Abm
And I'll take the blame
                         Bb
but that won't heal your scars 


Chorus 1:
Ebm
Look look a little 
B                    F#
closer and then shut off 
              Bbm
You should've known
              B
this wasn't a truce
                 Abm
Keep taking your cheap shots
Until I'm black and blue


Verse 2:
Ebm
  You should have known better 
        Abm
than to change your mind
                               Ebm
Your tears won't tame your misery
They're the ones that
                  Abm
say your heart is just a beat
Your just keeping time


Refrain 2:
B            Abm
This isn't a game who
                 Ebm Bb
do you think you are? 
    B             Abm
And I'll take the blame but
                    Bb
that won't heal your scars 


Chorus 2:
Ebm
Look look a little 
B                    F#
closer and then shut off 
              Bbm
You should've known
              B
this wasn't a truce
                 Abm
Keep taking your cheap shots
                    Bb-- x8
Until I'm black and blue

Chorus 3:
Ebm
Look look a little 
B                    F#
closer and then shut off 
              Bbm
You should've known
              B
this wasn't a truce
                 Abm
Keep taking your cheap shots
                Ebm(hold)
Until I'm black and blue
