verse 1 

     C                         Am 
skipping school and kissing in your front yard 
 F             G 
no I'm not in love with you 
    C                   Am          F               G             C 
i just want to hold you in the dark & make you wish you were never born 
           Am               F           G 
behind the bleachers at the game that night 
 C         Am         F      G 
you know I wanted you that way 
C          Am             F       G 
now that I hold you in my arms so tight 
F                    G 
i can't stand, can't stand your sight 

verse 2 
C                         Am            F 
cutting pictures of armor from magazines 
              G                C        Am  F              G 
we paste them to the sides of our hearts to keep them from breaking 
F       G       C       Am    F            G       C        Am 
i feel nervous. i feel empty. i don't know what to do with you 
F             G       Am                               F              G 
it's not that I don't want to kiss you, it's just that I feel nothing when I do 

solo thing. u can do whatever u want here 

verse 3 
   C        Am       F 
so let down your hair 
                   G         C     Am 
still wet from the rain last night 
F            G 
you couldn't fall asleep 
F             G C     Am  F 
it's not that i wanna die 
            G              C        Am 
sometimes i just think I'm living a lie 
F            G             Am                      F                       G                C 
and when you wake up in the middle of the night, i won't be there when you turn on the light
