[Intro] Bb C Dm Am x2 [Verse 1]
Bb           C
I'm slowly learning

           Dm                Am
That the things you promised me

     Bb              C
Are burning like the embers

      Dm                Am
Of a thousand willow trees, and

Bb            C
Every single secret

           Dm           Am
Has been broadcast like TV

     Bb                  C
Now, all the threads are severed

           Dm          Am
That were tying you to me
[Chords]
Bb   C     Dm
I  thought we

        Am                  Bb
Were friends, but now we're

  C     Dm  Am
Enemies

Bb   C     Dm
I  thought we

        Am                  Bb
Were friends, but now we're

  C     Dm  Am
Enemies

                           Bb
Pull your knife out of my back

        C        Dm    Am
Your blood runs black

               Bb                C               Dm   Am
I was just surprised at how you turned on me so fast

          Bb  C
I let you in

             Dm  Am
I held you close

                        Bb             C              Dm  Am
My blood flows like a river 'cause I trusted you the most

Bb C   Dm Am
And now I know it's over (woo-oooo) x4
[Verse 2]
Bb        C            Dm           Am
I was so naive I even let you in my home

  Bb               C             Dm         Am
Took you out for dinner and let you wear my clothes

Bb           C            Dm              Am
I can't even breathe; I have your scent still in my nose

     Bb             C             Dm         Am
It's like I almost miss you; I should have known
[Chords]
