Intro
D#m F# Cb x4, Bb(hold)
Verse 1:
D#m
I've seen you bite your
Cb
nails in guilty thought
G#m
Thought you couldn't care
A#
less until I saw those paws
D#m
I'd say if you took a bite
Cb
for every lie you told
G#m
You would've run out of
A#
fingers and started on your toes
Refrain 1:
D#m A#m Cb
Don't think you're on to
G#m C#
something good right now
D#m F# G#m
So let's go back to
F# A#
the starting place
Chorus:
D#m F#
And I believe in futures
A# D#m
but I can't afford to wait
Cb
You've been doing
A# D#m F# G#m A#m
it the wrong way
D#m F#
And some day you'll find
something that
A# D#m
makes you feel okay
Cb
But until then you'll
A# D#m F# G#m A#m Gm(hold) Cb A#
make your own way
Verse 2:
D#m Cb
You're the type of girl who
G#m A#
puts on cyanide perfume
D#m
Then asks for kisses on the
Cb G#m A#
neck from every boy in the room
D#m Cb
So tell me now how you find
G#m
yourself at the bottom
A#
of a bottle in a bar
D#m Cb
And how your reflection
G#m A#
reacts to you and your new scars
Refrain 2: Silence
D#m C# Cb
I don't think you're on
A# G#m A#
to something good right now
D#m C# Cb
I don't think you're on

to something good right now

So let's go back to

the starting place
