Chords

    E                     C#m
If lust and longing were all we knew

     F#m                       B
And love was kissing on the roof in view

         E                        C#m
Of the office workers and their camera phones

    F#m                 B
My heart would pump to let you know

                 E                      C#m
That you could take this song, if it's any good at all

 F#m                         B
Hide it somewhere when your new love calls

     E                      C#m
And if he asks if he hears music playing

 F#m                                B
Tell him it's the rattling of old bolts and chains

                 E
That held your heart in

                  C#m
But now you're starting

    F#m                     B
To forget you ever knew me
And you won't let me in
     E                     C#m
If lust and longing; were all we knew

                E                C#m
And you were someone special and I was too

               E                      Abm
Oh, would you take this song, put it on your wall

  A
Hide it somewhere when your lover calls

 E                      Abm
If he asked if that's music playing,

 A                                                      E
Tell him that's the rattling of old bolts and chains

 E                                        C#m
How it went old so quickly but that was long ago

                 E                     C#m
When you could fall in love with every one you know

      E                     Abm
And consume the songs like DNA

   A
Cut me open, to hear what they'd say

  E                           Abm
Pierce my skin with your arrow and bow

  A                                                   E
Saint Sebastian could tell you what he knows 'bout that

             E
And how it feels

C#m
Oh

A          B
Oh, let me in

 E
She says, 'break the rules now

 C#m
Talk like you got nothing to lose

 A                        B
Don't dance with nobody else', and

 E
He's drunk at the wheel again

 C#m                              A                            B
rumoured to be somewhere with a monster smile that's way too tight
Let me tell you what I know
  E                           A
She's got to leave this alone

 E
To find a way out of here

 B
She can still make it home
E C#m E C#m
        E                               C#m
Now we both know longing, how it gets under your skin

            E                  C#m
But then I saw you making eyes into him

              E             Abm
When you could take me over, take it all

  A
Close that distance, smash that door

 E             Abm
Beat me up or take my car

 A                            E
One last time before you crawl

                          F#m
But when your lover calls

                                   E
Under the bed when his bullet falls

                                    E
If he asks if he hears music playing

                                                A
Tell them it's the rattling of old bolts and chains
In the night when you watch it fall
F#m                    E
All you gotta do now

 E
Is let me in

        C#m
Let me in

 E       C#m
Let. Me. In

       E
She's fixing studs onto her ballet shoes

 C#m
walks like she's got nothing to lose

  A                                   B
Still she just can't look at no-one else

      E
While in the basement there is blood on his knees

    C#m
Trembling to see what she'll reveal

 A                       B
When everybody has gone home
Let me tell you what I know
 E                         A
We could just leave this alone, Oh

 E                    B
To find our way out of here
We could just make it
 E
Her arrows are flying they don't hit their target and

C#m
She's in the basement crying

     A                              B
She can't give this much of a fuck again

           E
So she'll go to another with Clergerie heels on

 C#m
Dance with him to the beat of this song

  A                                    B
Teach him that the beast must earn his horns

          E
And me? I'm just another number, son of generation kill

  C#m                             A
These days, too much time to kill

                                        E
And if I see her, I'll tell her you say hi
