Intro
x2: C, Cadd9, G


Verse 1
[C] Just when I had every[Cadd9]thing fi[G]gured out

[C] I let too many [Cadd9]words open my [G]small mouth

[C] He held me [Cadd9]once in a [G]room

[C] It was unat[Cadd9]tended, and it [G]tasted

Of an artist's per[C]fume (O[Cadd9]ooh, oooh)[G]

Of an artist's per[C]fume[Cadd9][G]

[C] He [Cadd9]graced my nake[G]d back

[C] My only shee[Cadd9]t was a bl[G]ack dress

[C] Woke up to a [Cadd9]cold, windy [G]city

[C] Woke up [Cadd9]trying to keep the [G]memory

[C] I was poisoned into [Cadd9]lying through m[G]y teeth

[C] While his [Cadd9]words were spoken onl[G]y truthfully

[C] Lost my [Cadd9]shoes in the [G]mud,

[C] Walked a[Cadd9]way clean[G]
Trying to be [C]tough [Cadd9](Oooh, ooo[G]h)

I was trying to be [C]tough[Cadd9][G]


Chorus 1
[Em] There's nothing in [G]between love and [C]hate

When [Cadd9]it comes [G]down to it

[Em] So you can walk clean [G]away or you can act in the [C]play

That we so [Cadd9]easily put [G]on for them


Verse 2
x2: C, Cadd9, G

[C] There was residence of [Cadd9]hope in my [G]heart

[C] Til' I got [Cadd9]dealt the unlucky [G]card

[C] Though the [Cadd9]buildup was [G]fun

[C] The [Cadd9]letdown wasn't [G]worth it all

[C] So I stole us [Cadd9]our midnight [G]drinks

[C] And he got [Cadd9]dealt our morning [G]fix

[C] Then we let the [Cadd9]honesty [G]pour

[C] Until it knocked us [Cadd9]out into a [G]deep sleep

Into a bad [C]dream [Cadd9](Oooh, ooo[G]h)

Is this a bad [C]dream?[Cadd9][G]

[C] He said he [Cadd9]used to be like [G]me

[C] A musical [Cadd9]mess, depressed with [G]anxiety

[C] My ears [Cadd9]only took half of his [G]advice

[C] Happiness [Cadd9]comes so easily to [G]him (Oooh, Oooh)

[C] For [Cadd9]me it's a [G]fight (Oooh, oooh)

[C] It's [Cadd9]always been a [G]fight


Chorus 2
[Em] There's nothing in bet[G]ween lovers and [C]friends

When [Cadd9]it comes [G]down to it

[Em] So you've made up your [G]mind, and I'm not worth your [C]time

But I can be [Cadd9]useful in your [G]life

[Em] I'll push the pedal in [G]deep, you're in the passenger [C]seat

I'll get us [Cadd9]there as [G]fast as I can

[Em] So we can go our separate [G]ways, I mean this was just a [C]stage

Of the [Cadd9]rest of our [G]lives

[Em] I'm growing too weak to [G]fight, at least I gave you a [C]try...


Outro
Cadd9, G

[C] I just [Cadd9]spoke too [G]soon

[C] Did I [Cadd9]speak too [G]soon?
