• Difficulty: Beginner

🎸 Intro:

C Am Em F


🎸 Verse 1:

C
Last night I blew you a kiss
            Am
I hope that you got it
Em
Underneath you I told you a lie
            F
I hope that you bought it
C

Strangers touch me in my dreams if
      Am
I go to bed sober
                        Em
When the edge of the curtains turn white
             F
I'll know that it's over


🎸 Chorus:

C                 Am
And you see things for what they are
     Em           F
And I see what they'll never be
C
And God can make mistakes like he
Am
Made an example of me
Em
And who could really love someone
                F
Who's that fucking ugly


🎸 Interlude:

C Am Em F


🎸 Verse 2:

C
Leaving his cum in the upholstery
Am
Always picking it out like a bad memory
Em
They all say that it's fine 'cause they
F
Don't know the cycle like I do
C
You don't know what it's like tryna love while you heal
Am
And you don't get to preach if you don't know how it feels to have
Em
Every last inch of your body
           F
Invaded like I do


🎸 Bridge:

C
Woke up a saint, fell asleep a martyr
Am
Would you do the same things to your own daughter?
Em
Still I tried saying "I love you"
                   F
Through a mouthful of dirt
C
Keep parts of dead things in the freezer outside
Am
Wondering if they suffered when they were alive
Em
Does God make delicate things just
               F
To watch them get hurt?


🎸 Chorus:

C                 Am
And you see things for what they are
    Em          F
And I see what they'll never be
C
God can make mistakes like he
Am
Made an example of me
Em
And who could really love someone
               F
Who's that fucking ugly


🎸 Outro:

C                Am
That gold cross swings only for me
Em                   F
In Jesus's name it kills me slowly
C                Am
That gold cross swings only for me
Em                   F
In Jesus's name it kills me slowly
