C                   F
You cry when you get drunk

                                     C
And I can't find the right things to say

                       F
Sooner or later you'll start breaking plates

          C         G          F
And I'll do what I can to stay out of your way
C F C F [Verse 2]
C                        F
There is nobody innocent here

                                         C
I've got more blood on my hands than you do

C                            F
It's you and it's me and the baby makes three

           C            G        F
Yeah but we've got our love to carry us through

 C            G        F
We've got our love to carry us through

C              F
I cry when I'm hungry

                           C
Something is wrong with my brain

                              F
And the ghost of our future's awake in the attic

  C             G           F
He moans and he wails as he rattles his chain
C Dm F C [Verse 4]
 C                             F
We embrace on the floor in the kitchen

                            C
Emissaries from neighboring lands

                                  F
When I hunt down the vampire who did this to us

       C           G             F
I will rip out his heart with my hands

       C           G             F
I will rip out his heart with my hands
