              POISON
            JASON FRIEDMAN
          (COVER of RUSTON KELLY)

NOTE: Someone made a request for a chord tab of this song
   by RUSTON KELLY in standard tuning. However, I could
   not find any good videos of him doing the song as they
   were all live versions of it. I did find this version
   by JASON FRIEDMAN covering the song which was a nice
   `Clean` version of it. Please keep that in mind when
   playing and rating. I have the link to it above.

INTRO:
D   Bm  Em  A


VERSE:
D
 I hear footsteps in the Hall every night,
Bm
 I see a shadow underneath my door
     Em
There’s a hole punched threw the wall,
         A
Are you happy now?

           D
Your memory cuts into my days,
     Bm
And then buries all my nights away
      Em
Speaking of you is like digging my own grave
         A
You’re my poison now


PRE-CHORUS:
         G
Cause you still call,
     D
When you need someone to love,
     Bm
When you need a hand to touch
       A
Or throw my face down in the mud

       G
And watch me fall
      D
Till I’m crawling on knees,
     Bm
Till my fingers crack and bleed
       A          G
Cause you’ve taken every part of me


CHORUS:
 G     D   A
You’re my poison now
G      D   A
 You’re my poison now
    G     D      A
Can I drain every drop of you out?
    G    D  A
Cause all you are now
    D D
Is poison

    Bm  Bm
You’re poison


VERSE:
D
 It’s not because I’m left alone to wonder why
Bm
 Or what became of the heart

That will shape so much with mine
     Em
Even that now I’m a stranger in your eyes
              A
 That’s not what tears me down

           D
It’s how you made my worst of days

Never seem as grey
Bm
 It’s remembering the sunshine on your face
   Em
And knowing that once the sweetest taste
        A
Is only poison now


PRE-CHORUS:
         G
Cause you still call,
     D
When you need someone to love,
     Bm
When you need a hand to touch
       A
Or throw my face down in the mud

       G
And watch me fall
      D
Till I’m crawling on knees,
     Bm
Till my fingers crack and bleed
       A          G
Cause you’ve taken every part of me


CHORUS:
 G     D   A
You’re my poison now
G      D   A
 You’re my poison now
    G     D      A
Can I drain every drop of you out?
    G    D  A
Cause all you are now

Is poison


INSTRUMENTAL/SOLO:
G D A
G D A
G D A A  D


VERSE:
D
I Hope there will be a time in your life
Bm
That our light comes back and it shines through your eyes
   Em
And when you can see clear enough to find
      A
I won’t be found

D
 So while you’re running through this world, so blind
Bm
 I’m gonna be running free with my arms open wide
       Em
And for the first time in such a long time
           A
I can say I’m happy now

I’m happy now,

I’m happy now


PRE-CHORUS:
       G
So don’t you call,
   D
And tell me you’re still in love
       Bm
And that you miss me way too much
    A
Cause you don`t see how deep

       G
You made us fall
     D
From a flower into a weed
    Bm
From a lover into a thief
      A
You just stolen my life from me


CHORUS:
G      D    A
I won’t be poisoned now
 G       D    A
And I won’t be poisoned now
    G      D      A
And I drained every drop of you out
    G  D    A
Cause all you are now
      G
Is who we are
     A
Like you are to me

 G       A
All you still are
    D D
Is poison
    Bm   Em
You`re poison
          A
Are you happy now?
