G  
Dirt in your fingernails 
D 
Blood on your knees 
A 
But did that ever make you happy? 
G 
I think you were my best friend 
D 
Gentle do not reprehend 
A 
I know it hasn't been a dream 
A 
But if you pardon, I will mend 


G 
Drunk in a parking lot 
D 
Just after three 
A 
Tearin' out your hair like a banshee 
G 
Lighter and a safety pin 
D 
Light the end, burn the skin 
A 
I'll stick to you forever 
A 
Cause this scar I think is permanent 

 
G D A 
Oh 
A 
Falling off the edge with you 
G D A  
Oh 
A                        G D A 
It was too good to be true 
A               G D A  
Too good to be true 

verse 2 
G 
Bite off your fingernails 
D 
Cut up your skin 
A 
Tell me that it didn't happen 
G 
Running through the dark woods 
D 
Fallen couldn't see straight 
A 
I was only looking for a human to reciprocate 
G 
Baby it's a black hole 
D 
I need it to breathe 
A 
But does it really make you happy? 
G 
Kiss me with a big knife 
D 
Bloody heart of paradise 
A 
Living like a soldier 
A 
Peace of mind must be nice 

 
G D A 
Oh 
A 
Falling off the edge with you 
G D A  
Oh 
A                        G D A 
It was too good to be true 
A               G D A  
Too good to be true 


Bridge 

G       
Thought I had won 
D                     A 
I thought I won til I lost 
G                 D 
And I, fixing my fall 
A 
But for what cost? 
G                       D 
And I see your reflection when I look at mine 
A 
And I say (I say, I say) 
A 
Baby, don't go away 

 
G D A 
Oh 
A 
Falling off the edge with you 
G D A  
Oh 
A                        G D A 
It was too good to be true 
A               G D A  
Too good to be true
