[Verse 1]
F             Dm             Am  
love's like a needle full of methadone

F              Dm            Am           C
potent but not real left you wanting more

F                    Dm               
lipstick track-marks bleeding wet

     Am            C
like Montagues and Capulets

    F              Dm              Am     C
for us, child, the stars refuse to shine

        F                 Dm              Am  
why for us, child, do the stars refuse to shine?
[Pre-Chorus 1]
          G    
somewhere strung out on the lam

         Am
we wound up back here again

       G
like unstable chemicals

   Dm     Em        F 
combining only to explode
[Chorus 1]
Am            F               C       G
what would it take for you to notice

Am   F                 C
i am heart on fire and all the

          G
world's a fuse so don't get close

Am           F               
the trouble and the worth

C            G          F
am i better off on my own?
[Verse 2]
F            Dm               Am         C 
contaminated quarantined then left alone

F          Dm    Am          C 
shipment refused address unknown

F             Dm              
damaged goods they soon forget

    Am                C 
in choking dust where we got left

F              Dm              Am    
for us all the stars refuse to shine
[Pre-Chorus 2]
G 
so tap the vein and light the match

Am
we burn like stars before the crash

G
but for you there's still a chance

         Dm Em F 
just let go
[Chorus 2]
Am            F               C       G
what would it take for you to notice

Am   F                 C
i am heart on fire and all the

          G
world's a fuse so don't get close

Am           F               
the trouble and the worth

C            G          
am i better off on my own?
[Post-Chorus] F G Am F C Dm Am Em F G [Bridge]
                           Am  F 
but now there's nowhere to run

C               G          Am  F
and now there's nowhere to hide

C               G          Am F 
there's nothing under the sun

C          G             Am F C
we haven't already tried
[Chorus 3]
Am            F               C       G
what would it take for you to notice

Am          F               
that i am a hand grenade

C           G
pin already pulled so don't let go

Am          F               
as we chase the sun

C            G          
my shadow slows us down

Am            F              
without me along

 C       G         F
you're better off, I know
