GmEb
Turn the lights up baby gonna close my eyes
F
Don't want to see the situation out of disguise
GmEbF
I run my fingers down the scar
GmEb
I breathe it in like air I drink it down like wine
CmEb
Then I sit and I stare at the scene of the crime
GmEb
When the lie comes down like a kiss on the lips
CmEb
It's a fragile wire the memory trips
GmEb
The taste is sweet but the kiss is unkind
CmEb
There's a crawlspace in my head that I find
GmEb
The fire burns hot the river runs wild
CmEbEb
And the wind sounds like the cries of a child
GmEb
The night stands at attention just to watch and wait
F
Like it came to see if I was gonna break
GmEbF
You hold me up you fold me up like paper
GmEb
In the naked city where we wear it like skin
CmEb
Come on baby it's such an unoriginal sin
GmEb
When the lie comes down like a kiss on the lips
CmEb
It's a fragile wire the memory trips
GmEb
The taste is sweet but the kiss is unkind
CmEb
There's a crawlspace in my head that I find
GmEb
The fire burns hot the river runs wild
CmEbEb
And the wind sounds like the cries of a child
CmBbGm
There is an edge there is a blade that's so sharp
EbBbEbGm
Baby it can separate the soul from the heart
SOLO
GmEb
You don't use a gun I gave you what you steal
F
If you don't ride this train you're underneath the wheel
GmEbF
I'm too emotional for this
Eb
So rock it up now baby but don't look down
CmEb
Let's just make it good-bye I'm gonna leave this town
GmEb
When the lie comes down like a kiss on the lips
CmEb
It's a fragile wire the memory trips
GmEb
The taste is sweet but the kiss is unkind
CmEb
There's a crawlspace in my head that I find
GmEb
The fire burns hot the river runs wild
CmEbEb
And the wind sounds like the cries of a child
GmEb
When the lie comes down like a kiss on the lips
CmEb
It's a fragile wire the memory trips
GmEb
The taste is sweet but the kiss is unkind
CmEb
There's a crawlspace in my head that I find
GmEb
The fire burns hot the river runs wild
CmEbGm
And the wind sounds like the cries of a child
