Capo 1

 

Intro: / Am - - - / G - - - / C - - - / F - - - /

 

Am                    G                             C    F

    I thought that I've been hurt before

           Am                G                        C    F

But no one's ever left me quite this sore

Am                          G                      C       F

     Your words cut deeper than a knife

                Am                  G                        F

Now I need someone to breathe me back to life

 

Pre-Chorus:

F                                    G          

    Got a feeling that I'm going under

Am (2)                              

     But I know that I'll make it out alive

F                          G

    If I quit calling you my lover

Am         G

Move on

 

Chorus:

                         Am                              G

You watch me bleed until I can't breathe

                    C                              F

I'm shaking, falling onto my knees

                    Am                     G

And now that I'm without your kisses

F                      C

I'll be needing stitches

       Am                 G                     

I'm tripping over myself,

                  C                                  F      

I'm aching begging you to come help

                    Am                     G

And now that I'm without your kisses

F                      C

I'll be needing stitches

 

 

Am                   G                         C    F

    Just like a moth drawn to a flame

             Am                    G                         C    F

Oh, you lured me in, I couldn't sense the pain

Am                  G                            C   F

    Your bitter heart cold to the touch

                         Am                 G

Now I'm gonna reap what I sow

                          C                 F

I'm left seeing red on my own

 

Pre-Chorus

 

Chorus

 

Am                                      G           

Needle and the thread, gotta get you out of my head

C                                           F                

Needle and the thread, gonna wind up dead

 

 

x3

Am                                      G           

Needle and the thread, gotta get you out of my head

 C                           N.C.

get you out of my head

 

Chorus

 

A Capella:

(And now that)

I'm without your kisses

I'll be needing stitches

(And now that)

I'm without your kisses

I'll be needing stitches

 

End
