Cm           Bb             Gm              Fm 
Oh, I need a witness to see the mess I've made 
Cm           Bb             Gm 
There's a broken lampshade, ashtrays, burnt floors, beds unmade 
Cm           Bb             Gm              Fm 
Eyes sleeping if you are dream, dream of what I'm doing 
Cm           Bb             Gm 
To you, undo you, I'm through with you until I need a round of 
Ab          Bb           Cm                Gm Fm* 
Everytime I spend myself it never runs too low, woah

Bb                       Ab 
Never meant you see them hand in hand

One is with the other 
Cm                   Bb

Fm 
(Sex and violence) 

Oh, I was a real man stealing all the trade 
I was strong and self-made, well-paid, so groomed, persuasive 
You were walking home that night, too kind to be illusive 
Where do you live? What do you give? Who are you with? 
And how you getting home? 
Does everybody know right now exactly where you are? Woah 
Step inside's a step too far but 

Sex and violence 
Hit me with a lover, burns so bright 
And one is just the other 
Sweetest tastes, never gonna leave you 
Even when it hurts you, breathe it, breathe it 

Violence, violence 


* Gm Fm (plays like bridge with one part of Gm and second part of Fm on 8th fret), you  
can skip easily and left only Cm chord whole step.
