[Verse 1]
                  D
You're a passing car on a one way street

           A                                        G                      D
Heading straight through the red lights where the midnight and heartbreak meet

                   D
You're a bird in flight to a house in flames

               A                         G                  D
Yeah, you've played every card, but you know it's a losing game
[Chorus]
   N.C.                        D
Yeah, you're running down a darkened road

                    A
Where even angels might not go

                   Bm
Some stars have a long glow

                         G
Let it pull you like a song you know

      G                D
It might look like a dream come true

                         Bm     A  G
But it only leads you straight into

                 D
The thing that wrecks you
[Verse 2]
             D             G        D
If I could change, I'd be good for you

       A                        G                       D
Oh, I hate all the madness and pain that I've put you through

 G               D                                   G      D
It's not your fault (It's not your fault), it's just how I am (It's just how I am)

          A                               G                   D
You're a deer in the headlights and I'm driving as fast as I can (As fast as I can)
[Chorus]
      N.C.                  D
Oh, you're running down a darkened road

                   A
Where even angels might not go

                         Bm
And your star's got a lonely glow

                        G
And I pull you like a song you know

     G                 D
We might look like a dream come true

                        Bm     A  G
But it only leads you straight into

                  Bm               G
The thing that wrecks you (Wrecks you)

                  Bm         G
The thing that wrecks you (Wrecks you)

                Bm   G  A   D
The thing that wrecks you
[Bridge]
                 D
The thing that wrecks you, wrecks you (Ooh)

                 D
The thing that wrecks you, wrecks you (Wrecks you)

                 D
The thing that wrecks you, wrecks you

                 D
You're a passing car on a one way street

                 D
(The thing that wrecks you, wrecks you)

                 D
(The thing that wrecks you, wrecks you)

                 D
(The thing that wrecks you, that wrecks you)

                 D
(The thing that wrecks you, that wrecks you)
Slow upstroke on a few of the D chords, arpeggiate them. [Outro]
                D
The thing that wrecks you, wrecks you (Oh, the thing that wrecks you)

                D
The thing that wrecks you, wrecks you

                D
The thing that wrecks you, wrecks you

                D
The thing that wrecks you, wrecks you (Wrecks you)

                D
The thing that wrecks you, wrecks you (Wrecks you)

                D
The thing that wrecks you, wrecks you (The thing that wrecks you)
