[Verse]
 
               G
Waking up your neighbors downstairs,
Em7
I've been inside your bedroom a thousand years.
           Cadd9
And as you tie me to the bed for good I say
       G
that I want you in the most unromantic way.
 
    Cadd9                   Em
Louisiana, you're torturing me with a beautiful face.
             Cadd9
Ana come on, I thought we had a damn good thing.
               G                   E7sus
A penny in the couch and a diamond ring.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
             E            C
So baby stay away from my friends,
         Am7          E7sus
'cause I need them to carry me.
          E               C
When it's over I'll count back from ten,
            C/G (twice) E7sus              C (once)
and you can list-en to glass hearts shattering.
 
 
[Verse]
 
        G
I don't know how you got into me,
             Em7
down my throat and made a home in my veins.
                    Cadd9
They used to be the rivers that would take us away,
                 G
but now you only call me every Christmas and my birthday.
                Cadd9                      A
I still can't believe how you look next to me,
            Cadd9              A (once)
just like a strip club bedroom scene.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
          E            C
Baby stay away from my friends,
         Am7          E7sus
'cause I need them to carry me.
          E               C
When it's over I'll count back from ten,
            C/G (twice) E7sus                   (break)
and you can list-en to something that you've never heard before.
 
 
[Interlude]
 
Em C Em C (break)
 
 
[Verse]
 
                             G
But you don't know what it's like
                                Cadd9
to wake up in the middle of the night,
 
scaring the thought of kissing razors.
     G
This blood evacuation is telling me to cave in.
Cadd9
Stay away.
 
 
[Outro]
 
G        Cadd9                  G (once)
        Just stay away from my friends.

Thanks for tabbing this :) The chords fit perfectly, and I'm really glad you included the strumming pattern. I had done a cover of this by ear, and my patterns fit, but these ones work a lot better :) Cheers

Great but not quite right. The E7sus should be a B7. Also from the interlude on, any time you see a C or Cadd9 it should be Cm. Otherwise its perfect.
