[Em]
[D] [G] I have to block out thoughts of you so I don't lose my head.
[Em] They're crawling like a cockroach, leaving babies in my [E] bed.
[C] Dropping little reels of tape to remind me that I'm alone.
[Am] Playing movies in my head that make a porno feel like home.
[G] There's a burning in my pride,
a nervous bleeding in my brain,
and [Em] I'll sell pieces all I want for you.
Will you never call again?
[C] And will you never say that you loved me?
To put it in my face.
[Am] And will you never try to reach me?
It is I that want to say.
Hate me [G] today.
[D] Hate [Em] me tomorrow.
Hate [C] me so you can finally [D] see what's good [G] for you.
And we're sober now for three whole months.
One accomplishment that you helped me with.
[Em] The one thing that always tore us apart
is the one thing I won't touch again.
[C] In my sick way, I want to thank you
for holding my head up late at night.
While [Am] I was busy waging wars on myself,
you were trying to stop the fight.
[G] You never doubted my woke opinions
on things like suicidal hate.
[Em] You made me compliment myself
when it was way too hard to take.
And so [C] I'll drive so far away
[F#] that I'll [C] never cross your mind.

[G] I'm kicking shadows on the street
[F#m] for [Em] every mistake that I had made.

Till [G] I saw your blue eyes cry,
I [Em] held your face in my hand.

make this [D] go away.
