Intro; Am Am C E
verse 1:
Am
I was in the second grade when you pushed me out
Am
Third story window to the bushes down below
C
Breathing in the cold
E
As I tumbled through the vines' thorns smiling at my throat
Am
I, I saw the devil in you that day
Am C
Looking down at me with that face
E
Smiling like you would have hid my body in the basement
Am
Body in the Basement
C
But you got something that the world's been running from
Am
For way too long and it's a sick twist
E
A nervous little twitch
Dragging the razors across my wrists
Am C
And you got something that the world's been trying to hide
You're cyanide
Am
Cause the only thing you told me was
E
They'd never find my body in the basement
Body in the basement, no
Hook:
Am C
Every time I think about you know I go crazy
Am
People ask me about you
I don't know what to say
E
Cause I don't know who you are
Am C
I wonder if it's even possible for you to escape this
Am
Keep on asking about you
They don't know what to tell me
E
They don't know who you are
Am
They don't know who you are
verse 2:
Am
I was listening through the wall when you met your monsters
Am C
Heard'em break the closet door and take you away
E
Hoping you would change like the color of the moonlight
Bouncing off the rain
Am
I, I heard the devil in you that day
C
Watch the world around you cascade
E
Laughing like you would have fed your family to the serpent
Am
Family to the serpent
Am C
You got something that the world won't talk about
They walk around it
Am E
It's deep sleep, crawling in the street
Pushing the bayonet into me
Am C
You got something that the world keeps trapped inside
You aconite
Am
Cause I watched you turn around
E
Go and try to feed you family to the serpent
Am
Family to the serpent whole
Bridge:
Am C
These words won't break on you I know
E Am
I've done my best to help so many times before
Am C
These words won't break on you I know
E
I've done my best to help
