[Intro]
(All barred)
( GEmG )
( GG#Am )
( CG )
I'm not hung up on you anymore, but here's why I hung up
( GEmG )
( GG#A )
( Cm )
[Primera Parte]
GEmDG
Behind every great love story lies a great suicide
EmDCG
You can't give yourself completely and keep the man inside
CDAm
All the sentences I climbed halfway
CDAm
Saw the heights of what I wanted to say
CDAm
And crawled from word to word
D
Trying to get back down
( GEmG )
( GG#Am )
( CG )
( GEmG )
( GG#ACm )
[Segunda Parte]
GEmDG
The unending realization that it's never gonna end
EmDCG
I spend half the day exhaling and the other half holding my breath
CDAm
Cause living underwater was never my strength
CDAm
In the depths you reside, the sun never sinks
CDAm
So let’s float to the bottom for one final drink
D
There’s time for one more tonight
( GEmG )
( GG#Am )
( CG )
( GEmG )
( GG#A )
( CmG )
[Tercera Parte]
EmDG
It’s time to forget while the forgetting’s good
EmDCG
I’ll burn all the promises I carved out of your woulds
CDAm
You said won't you come into arm's reach
CDAm
Abandon your clothes and modes of speech
CDAm
An infant reborn you shall be
CG
Helpless and afraid
( G9GG7MGG7MG )
[Cuarta Parte]
EmDG
I’m waving goodbye every time you go to the store
EmDCG
I hope you break your hand the next time you slam the door
CDAm
Because I burned my fingers every night
CDAm
When your own shaking hands wouldn’t give you a light
CDAm
And I said “Jesus Christ, my parents were right
CG
I never should’ve smoked you out”
( GEmG )
( GG#Am )
( CG )
( GEmG )
( GG#A )
( CmG )
[Quinta Parte]
EmDG
I’d hate to amputate this artificial limb
EmDCG
But staring at you, my glass eyes are growing dim
CDAm
I can’t even blame you for looking so smug
CDAm
I have to admit you’re a hell of a drug
CDAm
So pack up the boxes, roll me up with the rug
CG
I’m not moving out, I’m just moving
( GEmG )
( GG#Am )
( CG )
( GEmG )
( GG#A )
( CmG )
[Sexta Parte]
EmDG
(Kissed) I kissed you, yes, but never on the mouth
EmDC
(Masochist) You held the north while I conquered the south
CDAm
But I don't want a territorial breach
CDAm
So at the edge of the bed we'll meet
CDAm
And I want you to fuck me in your sleep
C G (played on bass)
It's the only way I'll know
G
That you love me
G
Cause there's always gotta be a new angle
EmDG
Guns are loaded with silver bullets tonight
EmDCG
But it’s useless, you kept me waiting until it was light
CDAm
But you can’t go out the way you came in
CDAm
In the arms of someone unaware of your sins
CDAm
Because I’ve been recording this whole fucking thing
DG
Now you can never use the same chord changes again
( GC )
GEm
The first time was too fast
GA
The second time was just sad
( CCG )
[Verso 7]
EmDG
If you’re wondering why I’m still willing to take the fall
EmDCC/BG
If I’m not getting fucked over, I’m not getting fucked at all
CDAm
But I never asked for immunity
CDAm
That’s the difference between you and me
CDAm
All I wanted was someone who was just like me
C
And I hate myself for that
( GAm )
( GAm )
( CC )
[Verso 8]
EmDG
It’s getting hard to talk about the past
EmDCG
When you’ve copyrighted the present, no questions asked
CDAm
You can do whatever you want with my name
CDAm
But my body has never been public domain
CDAm
So if you’re looking for somebody to blame
C
Blame Walt Disney Studios
( GEmG )
( GG#Am )
( CG )
( GEmG )
( GG#A )
( Cm )
[Verso 9]
EmDG
I remember, I was walking around outside, talking to you on the phone
EmDCG
We were both avoiding the parties we attended alone
CDAm
And I looked up at the drunken moon
CDAm
It was round and it was grey and it looked like the moon
CDAm
And I said “at least we’ve both got the moon”
CG
And you said “I’m inside”
[Estribillo]
CBmAm
So I’ll try loving again
CBmAm
And you’ll try living alone
CBmAm
And we’ll meet at the end of this lifetime
DG
And compare notes

I hate your receptionist
D
She looks at me like I’m retarded
Am
When I’m filling out your forms
G
I see your form behind the frosted glass
D
But she says that you’re not there
Am
I’ll have to be content to wait
G
If you felt some kind of stirring
D
Against interpretation
Am
Why write these songs at all?
G
Why not become didactic
D
Tell everyone on the planet
Am
In plain English what you are
CD
But I am the gentle cannibal
EmD
I promise to eat you softly
AmDEmD
You won’t notice a thing

Hold me tight
AmG
You're taking advice from Lady Macbeth
DAm
William, one shot, two shots
G
When it’s out of your hands, you try to forget
D
Mariamme, hold me tight
Am
I still wish you hadn't listened to me
I ain’t been right since the
Execution
GD
William, one shot two shots
Am
Whoever you are, just hold me tight, I lost my love, my life, that -
GDAm
All I know is, one of us was supposed to kill the other
GDAm
Isn’t that what they mean when they say ‘lovers’?
GDAm
But murder is dirty, and peace comes cheap
GDAm
So here’s my new number, tell me when you’re free
