          C           G 
"I don't love you anymore" 
          Am             F 
A pretty line that I adore 
     C               G       Am     Asus4 
Five words that I've heard before 
            C            G 
'Cause you keep me on a rope 
             Am               F 
And tied a noose around my throat 
        C             G      Am     Asus4 
You're gone then back at my door
[Pre-Chorus]
                 C                                 Em 
'Cause if you're gonna leave, better leave, better do it fast 
      Am                           F 
Can't live a little longer sitting on your lap 
       C                                      Em 
'Cause you know what you're doin' when you're comin' back 
    Am                         F 
And I don't wanna have another heart attack
[Chorus]
    N.C. 
Oh, I can't be your lover on a leash 
                  N.C.       F 
Every other week, when you please 
    C Em     Am     F                   C 
Oh, I can't be the kiss that you don't need 
    Em                Am 
The lie between your teeth
[Post-Chorus]
    F N.C.             C 
The cut that always bleeds 
Em      Am 
(Ah-ah-ah) 
    F               C 
The cut that always bleeds 
Em      Am       F

[Verse]
        C             Em 
Say you love somebody new 
             Am                 F 
Then beat my heart to black and blue 
          C               Em           Am       F 
Then they leave, and it's me you come back to (Ah-ah) 
           C            Em 
To say you loved me all along 
             Am                   F 
And kiss the bruises 'til they're gone 
      C                     Em                   Am       F 
Bittersweet, 'cause I can't breathe inside your arms
[Pre-Chorus]
                 C                                 Em 
'Cause if you're gonna leave, better leave, better do it fast 
      Am                           F 
Can't live another minute bleedin' from my back 
       C                                   Em 
'Cause I don't have another one for you to stab 
    Am                         F 
And I don't wanna have another heart attack
[Chorus]

    Em                Am 
The lie between your teeth

The cut that always bleeds

I need you more than anything
