I prayed to sister Juliette, smoked three packs of cigarettes
F                               C
I'm still trying to figure out forgiveness
F                          G
And keep track of all of my sins
Am                      G               C       F
Just tell me you don't love me, and I promise I won't

Last night, New York City was heaven, now I'm feeling low

And how many stones did we roll, hoping hell would explode
F               C               F                       G
We read all the right books, we sang songs we misunderstood

I swallowed my pride, and I cried, cause we didn't exist

You said it's now or never

Well I never stop feeling that way

We get turned around, our spirits break down
