The Sharpest Lives

	 
[Strophe]
C#m 
Well it rains and it pours 
  
When you're out on your own 
A 
If I crash on the couch 
  
Can I sleep in my clothes? 
F#m 
'Cause I've spent the night dancing 
  
I'm drunk, I suppose 
G# 
If it looks like I'm laughing 
  
I'm really just asking to leave
[Strophe]
C#m 
This alone, you're in time for the show 
            A 
You're the one that I need 
  
I'm the one that you loathe 
F#m 
You can watch me corrode like a beast in repose 
           G# 
'Cause I love all the poison 
  
Away with the boys in the band
[Pre-Refrain]
A             B         G#           C#m 
I've really been on a bender and it shows 
A                            G# 
So why don't you blow me a kiss before she goes?
[Refrain]
C#m 
Give me a shot to remember 
                           A 
And you can take all the pain away from me 
                     F#m 
A kiss and I will surrender 
                          G# 
The sharpest lives are the deadliest to lead 
                         C#m 
A light to burn all the empires 
                          A 
So bright the sun is ashamed to rise and be 
                            F#m 
In love with all of these vampires 
                          G# 
So you can leave like the sane abandoned me
[Strophe]
C#m 
There's a place in the dark 
  
Where the animals go 
A 
You can take off your skin 
  
In the cannibal glow 
F#m 
Juliet loves the beat and the lust it commands 
         G# 
Drop the dagger and lather 
  
The blood on your hands, Romeo
[Pre-Refrain]
A           B         G#            C#m 
I've really been on a bender and it shows 
A                          G# 
So why don't you blow me a kiss before she goes?
[Refrain]
C#m 
Give me a shot to remember 
                         A 
And you can take all the pain away from me 
                  F#m 
A kiss and I will surrender 
                           G# 
The sharpest lives are the deadliest to lead 
                        C#m 
A light to burn all the empires 
                     A 
So bright the sun is ashamed to rise and be 
                          F#m 
In love with all of these vampires 
                          G# 
So you can leave like the sane abandoned me
