             Amaj7                   Dbm7 
I lock the door, turn all the water on 
              Amaj7                          Dbm7     E 
And bury that sound so no one hears anything anymore. 
               Amaj7 
Mirrors lie to me, tell me you can see 
          Dbm7             E    Emaj7/B Amaj7 
Maybe you won't be able to recognize me now 
                                       Dbm7 
I know you can feel all the things you steal 
                    Emaj7/B  
And you're taking it, and you're taking it 


E              
Feeling so easy, make me skin and bones 
Emaj7/B 
I'm always on my knees for you 
Amaj7               E/Ab  
Break like it's even when you're leaving it 
E/F#     E                       Amaj7 
    Thin, where the hell have you been? 


                Amaj7                         Dbm7 
Oh sometimes it burns, maybe I'll wash it out 
                Amaj7                         Dbm7  E 
It all looks so big, never mind, I don't feel anything 
            Amaj7 
Only hurt a bit, I still feel like shit 
                Dbm7             E    Emaj7/B Amaj7 
And I think you won't be able to recognize me now 
                                      Dbm7 
It's easier to quit, it's harder to admit 
                     Emaj7/B 
And you're pushing me, you're fucking pushing me! 


E              
Feeling so easy, make me skin and bones
