[Intro]
C   F   Am  Em   G
Am  F   C   Em   G
[Verse]
C 
If you were a teacher,  
        F 
I would  fail your class  
       Am 
Take it  over and over  
         Em          G 
'Til you noticed me, 
[Verse]
C 
If you were a waiting room,  
        F 
I would  never see a doctor  
        C 
I would  sit there  
                           Em    G 
With my first aid kit and bleed, 
[Interlude]
          F             C 
I want to be the power ballad  
               G                Am 
That lifts you up and hold you down,   
        F              C 
I wanna be the broken love song  
       G            Am 
That feeds your misery,  
           F                 C 
And I can  wish all that I want,  
        F                C 
But it won't bring us together,   
        G             Am 
Plus I know whatever happens to me,  
F                   G        C 
I know it's for the be-e-et-ter 
[Instrumental]
C   F   Am  Em   G
Am  F   C   Em   G
[Verse]
     C                     F 
And when broken bodies are  washed ashore  
Am                    Em           G 
  Who am I to ask for more, more, more?   
          Am                F 
But you're  breathing in my  open mouth,  
            C 
You're the gun in my lips  
          Em              G 
That will blow my brains out, 
[Interlude]
           F                  C 
I want to make you drive all night  
             G            Am                   F 
Just because I said maybe you should come over,   
           F                C 
I want to make you fall in love  
           G                Am               F 
As hard as my poor parents teenage daughter,  
               Dm            F 
She'll be the best you ever had if you let her, 
[Instrumental]
Am   F   C   Em   G
