VERSE:
C                       Am
 He'll be sorry in the morning
 C                               Am
You say he's tender when you're home
 C
But if I was your man
        Am               G
I'd be more than just a cure for being alone

 C                    Am
You say you see some good in him
C              Am
 You can't explain
 C                Am
And he's somehow better than
     G
The way that he behaves


PD-C HORUS:
         F               Am
But the fact is that in practice
           F                Am
His love grinds you like a stone
             F                Am
And you're wrapped around the axle now
   G
Afraid to let the whole thing go


CHORUS:
        F                Am                        F
But you  can't drain the sea (you can't drain the sea)
            Am                F
And stay afloat (and stay afloat)
                    Am                 G   G
You can't take the knot and leave the rope


VERSE:
 C                       Am
And water, it won't ever run clear
 C                             Am
Rinsing your heart out in the sink
 C                        Am
Staying, all you'll ever get dear
      G
Is a paler shade of pink


PD-C HORUS:
         F               Am
But the fact is that in practice
           F                Am
His love grinds you to the bone
             F                Am
And you're wrapped around the axle now
   G
Afraid to let the whole thing go


CHORUS:
        F                Am                        F
But you  can't drain the sea (you can't drain the sea)
            Am                F
And stay afloat (and stay afloat)
                    Am                 G   G
You can't take the knot and leave the rope


VERSE:
F                 Am
 We've all loved liars
F               Am
 But most have learned
       F                  Am
That those who play with fire
  G    N.C.                    F
Spend their whole lives icing burns


OUTRO:
Am             F            Am
  Yeah, icing bur-ur-ur-ur-urns
             F   Am
Yeah, icing burns
             F            Am
Yeah, icing bur-ur-ur-ur-urns
       F   Am
Icing bur-urns
       F            Am
Icing bur-ur-ur-ur-urns
       F   Am
Icing bur-urns
       G
Icing burns
