verse 1 
    Cm             Eb           Bb 
    All you are is black ink on blue lines 
F Cm                Eb             Bb 
    But all I am is one notch in a bedpost 
       F           Cm   Eb          Bb 
    Or at most the ghost that keeps you warm 
             Cm     Eb    Bb 
    Just the ghost 

verse 2 
            Cm                            Eb 
    We went searching for some comfort by using one another 
  Bb                         Gm                  Eb 
    Both needing lovers of some sort, but it was vile and it was cheap 
           F                           Gm            F          Eb 
    And we trade for what we need with words and curves behind closed doors 

      Gm                 Eb 
    I bought the lines I needed from you 
             Bb                       F 
    Slippin' out of that dress and my high heel shoes 
 Gm           Eb            Bb 
    I guess I needed my fix too 
      Gm                        Eb 
    I spent the nights, oh, you spent your words 
           Bb                  F 
    And we both got hooked, we both got burned 
  Gm 
    'Cause I move the way that you like 
  Eb 
    And you fed me your best lines 
  Cm                     Eb     F      Cm       Eb   Bb 
    And we took one more hit of skin and script 

Cm Eb Bb 

verse 3 
  Cm               Eb                Bb                           Cm     Eb      Bb 
    You lose me in your sleep tucked beneath the same sheets that shelter my bare skin 
F Cm           Eb             Bb                  Eb                           F 
    And I lose my mind when I rewind every time I tasted your sweat I breathed your heat in 
  Eb                                         F                            Gm Eb Bb 
    'Cause the only way you keep me warm now is burning lyrics I wrote down 

 Gm F 

          Gm                 Eb 
    And I bought the lines I needed from you 
             Bb                       F 
    Slippin' out of that dress and my high heel shoes 
  Gm          Eb           Bb 
    I guess I needed my fix too 
      Gm                  Eb 
    I spent the night and smoked your words 
            Bb                F 
    'Til we both got high, we all got worse 
  Gm 
    'Cause I love you like you needed 
  Eb 
    And you became my addiction 
          Cm 
    Sweet and sick 
                  Eb     F      Cm      Eb 
    With one more hit of skin and script 

  Bb F C Eb Gm G
