Verse
D Bm F#m
Said her name three times in the mirror the night the dead arose
D Bm F#m
Summoning the spirits as she came in nearer and took off all my clothes
D Bm A
Scratches on the bathroom stall, melancholy and morose
D Bm
But she's such a pale thing in the dead of spring
F#m
I'm a shadow, she's a ghost, a ghost
[Chorus]
D Bm F#m
Hey,
she smiles as if to
D Bm F#m
say
"Let love kill me"
[Verse 2]
D Bm F#m
She'd drink until the morning light and to our enemies we'd toast
D Bm F#m
Arriving unexpectedly like death threats in the post
D Bm
Sweet and sad, beautiful but bad
A
An angel in devil's clothes
D Bm
She'd shade the world to dim my light
F#m
She's a shadow, I'm a ghost, a ghost
[Chorus]
D Bm F#m
Hey,
she smiles as if to
D Bm F#m
say
"Let love kill me"
D Bm F#m
Hey,
she smiles as if to
D Bm F#m
say
"Let love kill me"
[Bridge]
Em F#m Bm
The Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost, the Holy Trinity
Em Bm A
Not a single one could save my soul, I'm ready
To let your love kill me
To let your love kill me
To let your love kill me
[Chorus]
D Bm F#m
Hey,
she smiles as if to
D Bm F#m
say
"Let love kill me"
D Bm F#m
Hey,
she smiles as if to
D Bm F#m
say
"Let love kill me"
