Key: D
Introduction: Bm D G A
Bm
And we could ride all night
To the pace of the blinking light
D G
Wishing traffic was faster (traffic was faster)
Keeping safe distance but courting disaster
A Bm
We could dance all night
To the sounds of a starting fight
D G
Hoping change would come around (change would come around)
A
Amazing division how sweet the sound
Bm
Blame me! Blame me! Blame me!
D
For mistakes you've made but you can't own
G
Hate me hate me hate me
A
For every honest word that you've postponed
Bm
Leave me out of this
D
Your life's a sinking ship so
G
Blame me blame me blame me
A
For mistakes you've made but you can't own
Bm
And we could stare all day
At problems that won't go away
D G
Silence is pounding (silence is pounding)
You're wearing me down these corners they're rounding
A Bm
Then we could scream all night
With no resolve still left in sight
D G
Stop saying you're sorry
A
All of these words feel so very empty
Chorus
G A
Torturing ourselves we must be into the abuse
Bm
If you're the rope that ties us together
A
Please make me a noose
G
Ask me to leave
Then beg me just to stay
A
Used to run to my arms but now I walk away
Bm
Come and go as you please
I'm like a part-time lover with well-worn knees
