Verse
E C#m G#m
Said her name three times in the mirror the night the dead arose
E C#m G#m
Summoning the spirits as she came in nearer and took off all my clothes
E C#m B
Scratches on the bathroom stall, melancholy and morose
E C#m
But she's such a pale thing in the dead of spring
G#m
I'm a shadow, she's a ghost, a ghost
[Chorus]
E C#m G#m
Hey,
she smiles as if to
E C#m G#m
say
"Let love kill me"
[Verse 2]
E C#m G#m
She'd drink until the morning light and to our enemies we'd toast
E C#m G#m
Arriving unexpectedly like death threats in the post
E C#m
Sweet and sad, beautiful but bad
B
An angel in devil's clothes
E C#m
She'd shade the world to dim my light
G#m
She's a shadow, I'm a ghost, a ghost
[Chorus]
E C#m G#m
Hey,
she smiles as if to
E C#m G#m
say
"Let love kill me"
E C#m G#m
Hey,
she smiles as if to
E C#m G#m
say
"Let love kill me"
[Bridge]
F#m G#m C#m
The Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost, the Holy Trinity
F#m C#m B
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]
E C#m G#m
Hey,
she smiles as if to
E C#m G#m
say
"Let love kill me"
E C#m G#m
Hey,
she smiles as if to
E C#m G#m
say
"Let love kill me"
