Biography:
Hurts to Purr, the now-defunct Austin, Texas trio, was formed in 2003 by Liz Pappademas, Tom Benton and Jeremy Bruch. They released a full-length self-titled album in 2005. Producer Kevin Ryan and the band flew to Los Angeles to mix the record with Brian Kehew and earned a slot on NPR's All Songs Considered Open Mic program, but the band parted ways in January of 2006 citing diverging future plans as the cause for the split.

[Intro] (x4)
Fmaj7 Cmaj7
[Chorus]
Fmaj7 Cmaj7
Come on, bring me a flood
Fmaj7 Cmaj7
Come on, bring me a code red warning
Fmaj7 Cmaj7 Bb
My baby and me need a tragedy
[Verse 1]
Amin4 Fmaj7
And I'll go over to his house
Amin4 Fmaj7
And ask him for candles
Amin4 Fmaj7 C Cmaj7
The power's out in this town
Amin4 Fmaj7
He'll welcome me in
Amin4 Fmaj7
From the cold, from the rain
Amin4 Fmaj7 C Cmaj7
We'll tell all the stories we've been saving
[Chorus]
Fmaj7 Cmaj7
Come on, bring me a flood
Fmaj7 Cmaj7
Come on, bring me a code red warning
Fmaj7 Cmaj7 Bb
My baby and me need a tragedy
[Verse 2]
Amin4 Fmaj7
He'll come to the hospital
Amin4 Fmaj7
They'll know he's the one to call
Amin4 Fmaj7 C Cmaj7
He'll say, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, baby, for it all"
Amin4 Fmaj7
He'll stay by my bedside
Amin4 Fmaj7
Holding my hand all night
Amin4 Fmaj7 C Cmaj7
Talking just to keep me alive
[Chorus]
Fmaj7 Cmaj7
Come on, bring me a flood
Fmaj7 Cmaj7
Come on, bring me a code red warning
Fmaj7 Cmaj7 Bb
My baby and me need a tragedy
[Verse 3]
(Different strumming pattern and melody)
Amin4 Fmaj7
I can't believe I'd wish for so much suffering
Amin4 Fmaj7
But it's better than this nothing
Amin4 Amin4
Bring me anything, oh,
N.C.
To get my baby and me together again
