For the part with no chords, it sounds good if you put your
fingers across the strings so that it mutes the sound and strum.

(drums enter)A A A Em D
[Verse 1]
A Em D I am an American aquarium drinker A Em D I assassin down the avenue A Em D I'm hiding out in the big city blinking A Em D What was I thinking when I let go of you
A Em D (x2)
[Verse 2]
A Em D Let's forget about the tongue-tied lightning A Em D Let's undress just like cross-eyed strangers A Em D This is not a joke so please stop smiling A Em D What was I thinking when I said it didn't hurt
A Em D (x2)
[Verse 3]
A Em D I want to glide through those brown eyes dreaming A Em D Take me from the inside, baby hold on tight A Em D You were so right when you said I've been drinking A Em D What was I thinking when we said good night
A Em D (x2)
[Verse 4]
A Em D I want to hold you in the Bible-black predawn A Em D You're quite a quiet domino, bury me now A Em D Take off your band-aid 'cause I don't believe in touchdowns A Em D What was I thinking when we said hello

[Verse 5]
A Em D I always thought that if I held you tightly A Em D You'd always love me like you did back then A Em D Then I fell asleep in the city kept blinking A Em D What was I thinking when I let you back in

I am trying to break your heart
I am trying to break your heart
But still I would be lying if I said it wasn't easy
I am trying to break your heart
