[Intro] Em7 D Am C B7 Em7 D Am C B7 [Verse]
Em7                G                       D
Wake up in the darkness and I haunt every room

                 Am7
I've got to get out or I'll keep loving you

Em7                       G                               D
And you've made it quite evident, you're not that kind of man

                       Am7
You won't buy in to my heart, you don't give a damn
[Pre-chorus]
C           G
And I keep asking these questions like

  D                 Dsus4                    C
'Why do I have to be so damn foolish all the time?'

                   G                      D
'Cause some days I feel like I'd rather die

            Dsus4
But I'm too stubborn to lose you

Am7   G                   Em7
And how is this gonna end?

                            D
'Cause you know me like this, but I swear it's only pretend

Am7            G
You slide your fingers off my skin

Em7                      F
Don't stop your loving, that's where I begin
[Chorus]
Em7                   D
It's like I'm fucking

       Am7
Lady Macbeth

               C                 B7
I live for you boy, but then you love me to death

Em7                    D                 Am7
And this, my heartache, that I am the queen

                   C
Since I felt your touch

                  B7
These hands will never be clean
[Verse]
Em7                   G                         D
I keep begging for answers and pleading for reasons

                 Am7
You just give me silence and the seasons

Em7          G                       D
Pass, life rolls, and just like the blood unto my hands

Am7
Time will flow
[Pre-chorus]
C             G
And I ask you stupid questions like

  D           Dsus4                    C
'How am I supposed to move forward now

                      G               D
That you've got your eyes on someone else

            Dsus4
And I'm too stubborn to lose you?'

Am7   G                   Em7
And how is this gonna end?

                            D
'Cause you know me like this, but I swear it's only pretend

Am7            G
You slide your fingers off my skin

Em7                      F
Don't stop your loving, that's where I begin
[Chorus]
Em7                   D
It's like I'm fucking

       Am7
Lady Macbeth

               C                 B7
I live for you boy, but then you love me to death

Em7                    D                 Am7
And this, my heartache, that I am the queen

                   C
Since I felt your touch

                  B7
These hands will never be clean
[Instrumental] Em7 D Am7 C B7 Em7 D Am7
C                          B7
These hands will never be clean
[Bridge]
C              G                D
And I've asked all my questions now

       B7
But I get no explanation

C              G                   D   Dsus4
And I've got a mind to leave this town

Am7   G                   Em7
You say "this has got to end"

                      D                    Dsus4
But you know me like this, I don't want to be just your friend

Am7      G
You said "that's what youth is for"

Em7          F
But I'm not young anymore
[Chorus]
Em7                   D
It's like I'm fucking

       Am7
Lady Macbeth

               C                 B7
I live for you boy, but then you love me to death

Em7                    D                 Am7
And this, my heartache, that I am the queen

                   C
Since I felt your touch

                  B7
These hands will never be clean

Em7                   D
It's like I'm fucking

       Am7
Lady Macbeth

               C                 B7
I live for you boy, but then you love me to death

Em7                    D                 Am7
And this, my heartache, that I am the queen

                   C
Since I felt your touch

                  B7
These hands will never be
[Outro]
Em7                   D                 C          B7
Clean (and I've asked all my questions now, but I get no explanation)

                   Em7                  D                 C    B7
They'll never be clean (And I've got a mind to leave this town)

                    Em7                 D                 C         B7
They'll never be clean (And I've asked all my questions now, but I get no explanation)

Em7            D                  C       B7
And I've got a mind to leave this town
