[Intro]~
B5 F# A#
B5 F# A#
[Verse]~
B5 F# A# G#
Born in the spring,..!! I’ve always needed
B5 F# A#
Something to feel new
G# B5 F# A#
And come to think of it now,..!! so did you
G# B5 F# A#
Maybe that explains this fascination with death
G#
Or a lack of ammunition
[Chorus]~
F#5 B5 C#5 G#5
“It wasn’t me”,..!! I heard you say
F#5 B5 C#5 G#5
“The cross protects you from the shame”
F#5 B5 C#5 B5 C#5 B5
That comes along with living in the kind of world
C#5 G#5 F#5 B5 F# A#
Where boys can only kiss the girls
B5 F# A#
[Verse]~
B5 F# A# G#
Excuse me,..!! sir,..!! do you have a light!!..?
B5 F# A#
I know that I can be dark
G# B5 F# A#
But that’s what makes us brighter than the rest
G# B5 F# A#
Who’d think a weight like this could make you feel blessed!!..?
G#
Or a lack of seratonin
[Chorus]~
F#5 B5
That shakes your brain
C#5 G#5 F#5 B5
Till nothing’s left to rearrange
C#5 G#5 F#5 B5
Folks start looking at you strange
C#5 G#5 F#5 B5
Stoned by noon you fade away
C#5 B5 C#5 B5
Into the place that doesn’t feel
C#5 G#5 F#5 B5 F# A# G#5
Nothing to hide,..!! nothing to steal
[Bridge]~
B5 F# A# G#5
B5 F# A# G#5
G#
[Verse]~
B5 F# A# G#5
Not bittersweet,..!! the taste of living
B5 F# A#
An impossible dream
G#5 B5 F# A#
But we both know your future wasn’t with me
G#
Long before your body betrayed you
[Chorus]~
F#5 B5 C#5 G#5 F#5 B5
Royalty,..!! through the streamers and the beams
C#5 G#5 F#5 B5
They tied you up and called you queen
C#5 G#5 F#5 B5
Passed out in a bathroom stall
C#5 G#5 F#5 B5
You still looked better than them all
C#5 B5 C#5 B5
I kissed your head and walked away
C#5 G#5 F#5 B5
Watched the castle dance in flames
C#5 B5 C#5 B5
I kissed your head and walked away
C#5 G#5 F#5 B5
Watched the castle dance in flames
[Outro]~
