C C/B D Dsus
I know you find it hard to smile

C C/B D Dsus
To keep your happiness in style

C C/B D Dsus
You pass in silence in the morning

C C/B D Dsus
You know you shouldn't ever try to ignore me

C C/B D Dsus
And you look to be pretty nervous

C C/B D Dsus
Sweaty hands and blood shot eyes

C C/B D Dsus
So hard to identify you

C C/B D Dsus
Just a loser in a loser's disguise
*CHORUS*
Bm C
She don't back down

D Dsus2 G 
And she won't come around here

Em C
And there's all this talk about dying

C C/B Am
Man, I don't get it for the life of me

C C/B D Dsus
With your fingernails painted red

C C/B D Dsus
And your eyes all ready to wed

C C/B D Dsus
Decorated from head to toe

C C/B D Dsus
Like a magician in a talent show
*CHORUS*
Bm C
She don't back down

D Dsus2 G 
And she won't come around here

Em C
And there's all this talk about dying

C C/B Am
Man, I don't get it for the life of me

C C/B D Dsus
So you've smoked your last cigarette

C C/B D Dsus
Blindfolded on a train from Tibet

C C/B D Dsus
Broke your last bottle of wine

C C/B D Dsus
And unraveled your last ball of twine
*CHORUS*
Bm C
She don't back down

D Dsus2 G 
And she won't come around here

Em C
And there's all this talk about dying

C C/B Am
Man, I don't get it for the life of me
Break...just mess around with the chords and move up the neck with C a little *CHORUS*
Bm C
She don't back down

D Dsus2 G 
And she won't come around here

Em C
And there's all this talk about dying

C C/B Am
Man, I don't get it for the life of me

C C/B D Dsus
Well I know you find it hard to smile

C C/B D Dsus
To keep your happiness in style

C C/B D Dsus
Pass in silence in the morning

C C/B D Dsus
You know you don't need to ignore me

Em C
Now there's all this talkin' about dying

C C/B Am
Man, I don't get it for the life of me.
