[Intro]
C C C C
[Verse]
C C/B Am
The ground was wet and the sky was dark
C C/B Am Am/G
You took her bet and she took your heart . . .
F
Wrapped it 'round an oak tree like you
C G
Did that '67 GTO. . .
F Fsus2 F
Oh, no . . . . . . .
[Verse]
C C/B Am
Lovers leave chaos and clothes
C C/B Am Am/G
In quiet corners where you rarely ever go . . .
F
One day you found proof that she was
C G
Real despite your struggle to forget. . .
F Fsus2 F
Oh, yes . . . . . . .
[Chorus]
Em Fm C
You're in a fight to the death my friend
Em Fm C
Black metal t-shirts your shield
Em Fm C
You've got the past on your breath my friend
G F
Now name all the monsters you've killed
G F Fsus2 F
Let's name all the monsters you've killed . . . . . .
[Verse]
C C/B Am
The man she chose to take your place . .
C C/B Am Am/G
Turns his collar up to better frame his face . . .
F
How you'd love to hate her, but you
C G
Just can't hate somebody you don't know. . .
F Fsus2 F
Oh, no . . . . . . .
[Verse]
C C/B Am
Did she leave a trail of crumbs
C C/B Am Am/G
So you could find her when you're what you could become . . .
F
Or did she know you well enough
C G
To realize that garden just won't grow? . . .
F Fsus2 F
Oh, no . . . . . . .
[Chorus]
Em Fm C
You're in a fight to the death my friend
Em Fm C
Airwaves a grand battlefield
Em Fm C
You've got the past on your breath my friend
G F
Now name all the monsters you've killed
G F Fsus2 F
Let's name all the monsters you've killed . . . . . .

[Verse]
C C/B Am
In my sleep I build machines, but nobody
C C/B Am Am/G
Ever wants to hear about my dreams . . .
F
Last night I saw a burning Ferris
C G
Wheel. The meaning's anybody's guess . . .
F Fsus2 F
Oh, yes . . . . . . .
[Verse]
C C/B Am
Lovers leave chaos and clothes
C C/B Am Am/G
More debris that you can sort through in one go . . .
F
You say love is hell, but it's the
C G
Ghost of love that's made you such a mess . . .
F Fsus2 F
Oh, yes . . . . . . .
[Chorus]
Em Fm C
You're in a fight to the death my friend
Em Fm C
Fight like you're chained to the wheel
Em Fm C
You've got the past on your breath my friend
G F
Now name all the monsters you've killed
G Fm Fm C
Let's name all the monsters you've killed . . . . . . .
