VERSE:

(bass line)
For once I want to be the car crash
Not always just the traffic jam
A8         B8         G8  ---------------------\
Hit me hard enough to wake me                   \__ Palm Mute optional
A8         B8         G8                        /
And lead me wild to your dark roads------------/

C5      A5    F5 E5  G5
Headlights... before me
E5           A5      F5
So beautiful, so clear
C5      A5    F5 E5  G5
Reach out... and take it
E5           A5               F5
Cos I'm so ti-red of all this f-ear

(bass line)
My tongue is lost, oh, I can't tell you
Please just see it in my eyes
A8            B8         G8
I pull up thorns from our ripped bodies
A8            B8         G8
And let the blood fall in my mouth
