Chords

[Verse 1]
  Am           F
I'm slowly learning

            C                G
That the things you promised me

       Am                F
Are burning like the embers

        C               Em
Of a thousand willow trees

      Am             F
And every single secret

            C            G
Has been broadcast like TV

      Am                  F
Now all the threads are severed

            C           Em
That were tying you to me
[Pre-Chorus]
Am         F
I thought we were friends

             C       Em
But now we're enemies

 Am        F
I thought we were friends

              C       Em
But now we're enemies
[Chorus]
                            Am
Pull your knife out of my back

                   F
Your blood runs black

               C                                  Em
I was just surprised at how you turned on me so fast

           Am
I let you in

              F
I held you close

                         C                             Em
My blood flows like a river 'cause I trusted you the most

                       Am   F   C   G
And now I know it's over (Woo-ooh-ah-oooh)
[Post-Chorus]
                       Am   F   C   G
And now I know it's over (Woo-ooh-ah-oooh)

                       Am   F   C   G
And now I know it's over (Woo-ooh-ah-oooh)

                       Am   F   C   G
And now I know it's over (Woo-ooh-ah-oooh)
[Verse 2]
Am          F
I was so naive

        C             G
I even let you in my home

   Am               F         C               Em
Took you out for dinner and let you wear my clothes

 Am              F
I can't even breathe

               C                G
I have your scent still in my nose

       Am             F       C
It's like I almost miss you

                 Em
I should have known
[Pre-Chorus]
Am         F
I thought we were friends

             C       Em
But now we're enemies

 Am        F
I thought we were friends

              C       Em
But now we're enemies
[Chorus]
                            Am

And now I know it's over (Woo-ooh-ah-oooh)
[Post-Chorus]
                       Am   F   C   G
And now I know it's over (Woo-ooh-ah-oooh)

And now I know it's over (Woo-ooh-ah-oooh)

And now I know it's over (Woo-ooh-ah-oooh)

But now we're enemies
