(verse 1):   
 Am             G                         C    F 
I thought that I've been hurt before   
    Am              G                               C  F 
But no one's ever left me quite this sore   
 Am              G                           C   F 
Your words cut deeper than a knife   
      Am                G                                         C      F     
Now I need someone to breathe me back to life   

(Pre-Chorus):   
 F                       G    
Got a feeling that I'm going under   
 Am   
But I know that I'll make it out alive   
 F                G   
If I quit calling you my lover   
Am   
Move on   
   
  
              Am                   G   
You watch me bleed until I can't breathe   
           C                    F   
I'm shaking, falling onto my knees   
             Am                 G   
And now that I'm without your kisses   
 F                 C   
I'll be needing stitches   
       Am           G   
I'm tripping over myself,   
             C                   F   
I'm aching begging you to come help   
       Am                      G   
And now that I'm without your kisses   
   F                C   
I'll be needing stitches   
   
(verse 2):   
  Am         G               C     F   
Just like a moth drawn to a flame   
          Am             G                 C          F   
Oh, you lured me in, I couldn't sense the pain   
 Am           G                C           F   
Your bitter heart cold to the touch   
               Am          G   
Now I'm gonna reap what I sow   
                C            F   
I'm left seeing red on my own   

(Pre-Chorus):   
 F                       G    
Got a feeling that I'm going under   
 Am   
But I know that I'll make it out alive   
 F                G   
If I quit calling you my lover   
Am   
Move on   
   
  
              Am                   G   
You watch me bleed until I can't breathe   
           C                    F   
I'm shaking, falling onto my knees   
             Am                 G   
And now that I'm without your kisses   
 F                 C   
I'll be needing stitches   
       Am           G   
I'm tripping over myself,   
             C                   F   
I'm aching begging you to come help   
       Am                      G   
And now that I'm without your kisses   
        F              C   
I'll be needing stitches   
   
(Bridge):   
 Am                
Needle and the thread,   
       G                     
Gotta get you out of my head   
 C                 
Needle and the thread,   
       F            
Gonna wind up dead    (X3)
