Dm, Gm, A

     Dm
What once we believed 
to be so glorious and freeing's 
       Gm
just a crutch 
and in retrospect the good times
                             A 
that we've had don't seem so worth it 
when I'm wakin' up in cold sweat 
shakin' on some stranger's white leather couch 
                           Dm
with a head full of regrets (break)

Dm
     I've made up my bed
                         Gm
now i guess it's time to sleep
                               A 
swaddled up in sterile white sheets 
I'm losin' touch
 
            Dm
Little blue pills 
to help me sleep 
              Gm
don't like my life 
so i take seven when i drink 
Am
wake up in the A 
still shakin' from the mayhem 
                          Dm
with the door off of its hinge 

              Dm
Call me lady vodka 
there's only three tears I can shed
           Gm 
weary and broken 
but just can't rest well in this bed 
Am
ink stained carpets 
and stolen cars 
I gave you everything 
                               Dm
and all you gave me were these scars 

          Dm
i fucking hate you 
i fucking hate you
          Gm 
goddamn i love you 
goddamn i love you
       A 
but we both know if we ever 
stick together 
we'll just tear ourselves apart 

           Dm
You are my sunshine 
my only sunshine
            Gm 
you make me happy 
but the skies are grey
           A 
you are my heroin 
but there's an abscess 
goddamn me missed the vein 

                      Dm
She's scratchin'' her pen 
through the pages in her notebook
                Dm 
scratching' the blade of her knife 
into her hip 
(at least they're hidden)
  A 
a quarter of our lives gone by 
knees nailed to the ground 
            Dm
begging for more 

Dm                             Gm
    Forcin' that needle in his vein
forcin' that liquor down his throat
                           A 
(well that's just how i cope) 
quarter of our lives gone by 
knees nailed to the ground 
            Dm
begging for more
