[Verse 1]
Ab
All I needed was the medicine
Ab
And you came knocking like a doctor
Fm
Gave me the pill to take away the poison
Fm
Erase the writing on the wall
Ab
You stuck a needle right into that vein
Ab
You let me take it like a soldier
Fm Fm
Thought for a while I could ignore the pain
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Ab
My hands are tied behind my back
Fm
I'm paralyzed, my heart attacks
Ab
It seemed to me you were the one
Fm
Turns out you shot me up for fun
[Chorus]
Ab
Thought you got away with murder
Fm
Left me at a loss for the words
D#
Just wait until I catch my breath
D#
Wait until I catch my breath
Ab
Ya but you thought you got away with murder
Fm
Left me at a loss for the words
D#
Just wait until I catch my breath
D#
Wait until I catch my breath
[Verse 2]
Ab
I was devastated by the pain
Ab
But now I couldn't call the doctor
Fm
Gotta stop the forces in my brain
Fm
Gotta read the writing on the wall
D#
It isn't easy getting in the vein
D#
When you do it alone
Fm
No one to tighten up the tourniquet
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Ab
My hands are tied behind my back
Fm
I'm paralyzed, my heart attacks
Ab
It seemed to me you were the one
Fm
Turns out you shot me up for fun
[Chorus]
Ab
Thought you got away with murder
Fm
Left me at a loss for the words
D#
Just wait until I catch my breath
D#
Wait until I catch my breath
Ab
Ya but you thought you got away with murder
Fm
Left me at a loss for the words
D#
Just wait until I catch my breath
D#
Wait until I catch my breath
[Post-Chorus]
Ab
Wait until I catch my
Ab
Wait until I catch my
Ab
Wait until I catch my (my breath)
Ab
Wait until I catch my breath
Ab
Wait until I catch my
Ab
Wait until I catch my
Ab
Wait until I catch my (my breath)
Ab
Wait until I catch my breath

You leave me hanging out here for so long

When will I catch my breath?
