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

         Dm                  Am
That the things you promised me

    Bb               C
Are burning like the embers

     Dm       N.C.
Of a thousand willow trees

    Bb           C
And every single secret

         Dm              Am
Has been broadcast like TV

    Bb                  C
Now all the threads are severed

          Dm      N.C.
That were tying you to me
[Pre-Chorus]
Bb C         Dm      Am
I    thought we were friends

             Bb C Dm  N.C.
But now we're enemies

Bb C         Dm      Am
I    thought we were friends

             Bb C Dm N.C.
But now we're enemies
[Chorus]
                          Bb
Pull your knife out of my back

C               Dm
Your blood runs black

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

          Bb
I let you in

C          Dm
I held you close

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

N.C.                    Bb    C   Dm
And now I know it's over (Woo-ooh-ah-oooh)
[Post-Chorus]
          Am            Bb    C   Dm
And now I know it's over (Woo-ooh-ah-oooh)

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

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

       Dm           Am
I even let you in my home

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

Bb           C
I can't even breathe

            Dm               Am
I have your scent still in my nose

     Bb            C        Dm
It's like I almost miss you
N.C. I should have known [Pre-Chorus]
Bb C         Dm      Am
I    thought we were friends

             Bb C Dm  N.C.
But now we're enemies

Bb C         Dm      Am
I    thought we were friends

             Bb C Dm N.C.
But now we're enemies
