[Intro]
C Em F G (x2)
[Verse 1]
C
You hold me down, right on time, love of my life
C
You showed up, and showed me so wrong, you were right
Am F C
Alone in this ocean, floating in the moonlight
Am F C
At home with the notion it's me, myself, and I
[Verse 2]
C
I was the live fast, car crash, Mulholland Drive
C
Open the flood gates, this love-hate is making me cry
Am F C
But tears fill the tub with the blood from your wrist that night
[Chorus]
F
If we should live forever
Am G
Like sweet vampires
F
When we can reign together
C G
Our own empire
F
Now we should try to sever
C G
All our past ties
F
But it's me and you
F
And the skies are blue
G
Both bleeding from our eyes
C Em F G (x2)
[Verse 3]
C
I was a love-sick, dumb dick, top off the stock
C
Came to shove, when you push and locked his keys in his car
Am F C
I feel like an animal that's been kicked around too long
Am F C
An eel who's electric circuitry that's been wired all wrong
[Chorus]
F
If we should live forever
Am G
Like sweet vampires
F
When we can reign together
C G
Our own empire
F
Now we should try to sever
C G
All our past ties
F
But it's me and you
F
And the skies are blue
G
Both bleeding from our eyes
[Bridge]
Am
Now where the hell have you
F G
Gone off and flown away to
Am F G
Some shithole you call home (some asshole)
Am
Told me I won't survive
F G
Somehow, I'm scraping by
Am
We're reduced to ruin
F G
Rubble, rags and bones
[Chorus]
F
If we should live forever
Am G
Like sweet vampires
F
When we can reign together
C G
Our own empire
F
Now we should try to sever
C G
All our past ties
F
But it's me and you
F
And the skies are blue
G
Both bleeding from our eyes
