  			      G                   Dsus2 
Here I sleep with one eye open 
             Am               F 
While you're dreaming next to me 
        G               Dsus2 
Well at least I gave up hoping 
             Am                   F 
Some kind of miracle would set me free 
         Am 
Starting over 
         F 
God only knows where we've been 
         Am 
Starting over 
          F 
Is not an option 

            C    G       Am    G 
You're like poison on my tongue 
   F                  G 
So bittersweet, but I like it, I love it 
C  G         Am    G 
Poison on my tongue 
             F                 G 
And it keeps killing me, but I like it, I love it 

C G Am F 

(Verse chords) 
Here's a pill 
Why don't we take it  
Cause I heard it makes it all okay 
And wait until we both are naked 
Save the bullshit for another day 

(PreChorus chords) 
Starting over 
God only knows where we've been 
Starting over 
Is not an option 

(Chorus chords) 
You're like poison on my tongue 
So bittersweet, but I like it, I love it 
Poison on my tongue 
And it keeps killing me, but I like it, I love it 

C                 G                   
You make me wanna jump off a ledge 
Am                    G 
Find a new life, come back from the dead 
F                               G 
Do it again, do it again, do it again 
C G Am G             F                 G 
Poison, and it keeps killing me, but I like it, I love it 

C          G        Am    G 
              On my tongue 
     C   G        Am    G   
Like poison on my tongue  
           C   G  Am   G 
She's like poison 

She's like poison! 

D A Bm G x2 

           D  A         Bm    A 
She's like poison on my tongue 
   G                  A 
So bittersweet, but I like it, I love it 
D  A         Bm    A 
Poison on my tongue 
             G                 A 
And it keeps killing me, but I like it, I love it
