Intro
Em
stand there and watch me
G
alright because I like the way it
Em
stand there and hear me
G
alright because I love the way you
(slide on D string)
I love the way you lie
Em
really is, I can only tell you what it feels like
C
And right now, there’s a steel knife in my windpipe
G
I can’t breathe, but I still fight while I can fight
As long as the wrong feels right, it’s like I’m in flight
Em
High off of love, drunk from my hate,
C
paint and I love it, the more I suffer, I suffocate
G
And right before I’m about to drown, she resuscitates
Me, she fuckin’ hates me, and I love it, Wait!
Em
Where you going? I’m leaving you. No you ain’t,
C
Come back. We’re running right back, here we go again,
Cuz when it’s going good, it’s going great
I’m Superman with the wind at his back, she’s Lois Lane
Em
But when and it’s bad, it’s awful, I feel so ashamed,
C
I snap “Who’s that dude?”, I don’t even know his name
G
I laid hands on her, I’ll never stoop so low again
I guess I don’t know my own strength
Em
stand there and watch me
G
alright because I like the way it
Em
stand there and hear me
G
alright because I love the way you
Em
somebody so much, you can barely breathe when you with ’em?
C
meet, and neither one of you even know it hit ’em
G
warm fuzzy feeling, yeah them chills used to get ’em
Now you gettin’ fuckin’ sick of lookin’ at ’em
Em
hit ’em, never do nothin’ to hurt ’em
Now you’re in each other’s
C
face spewing venom in your words when you spit ’em
G
push, pull each other’s hair, scratch, claw, bit ’em
Throw ’em down, pin ’em, so lost in the moments when you’re in ’em
Em
face that’s the culprit, controls you both
C
best to go your separate ways
Guess that they don’t know ya cuz
G
today, that was yesterday,
Yesterday is over and it’s a different day,
Sound like broken records playing over but you
next time you’d show restraint, you don’t get
Life is no nintendo game, but you lied
Now you get to watch her leave out the window
Guess that’s why they call it “window pane”
Em
stand there and watch me
G
alright because I like the way it
Em
stand there and hear me
G
alright because I love the way you
Em
said things, did things that we didn’t mean
C
fall back into the same patterns, same routine
G
But your temper’s just as bad as mine is; you’re the same as me
When it comes to love you’re just as blinded
