this is a beautiful song about cradling pain, that everyone can probably relate to. i
wish i could sing it
as nice as john grant does. weep.
[Fm] [/] [C#maj7] [/] [D#7] [/] [Abmaj7] [/]
[Fm]You are a [C#maj7]drug to me
I [D#7]never ever thought it other[Abmaj7]wise
[Fm]And I love the lies you've [C#maj7] told to me
While [D#7]looking me directly in my [Abmaj7]eyes
[F7]This is not [Bbm]ecstasy,
[D#7]But it's better than co[Abmaj7]caine.
[F7]And you know that I will [Bbm]miss you when you're gone
[D#7]But I'm not equipped to play this[Abmaj7] game
You know your words
They don't mean anything to me
They only serve to fatten up the prey
And when it's time to take them to the slaughterhouse
You slice their throats, continue on your way
[F7]This is not[Bbm] jeopardy
[D#7]And it's not your high school [Abmaj7]prom
[F7]And you know that I [Bbm]will miss you when you're gone
[G7]I'm not equipped to be your [Cm]mom
You are a drug to me
I never ever thought it otherwise
And I love the lies you've told to me
While looking me directly in my eyes
wish i could sing it
as nice as john grant does. weep.
