Note II: I used these chords names, so they can fit above the right words. And most of these chords are just transition chords, and you really need to watch the video for hammer ons and pull offs. I looks difficult, but really it isn't.
[Verse] C2C6C2CC/B I feel a filth in my bones FF2C2FC Wash off my hands till it's gone AmAm9Am7Am9 Your walls they're closing in G9G6G/CC2C6C2CG6 With velvet curtains
[Verse] Some love was made for the lights Some kiss your cheek and goodnight Lift up a red high heel Lock up your doors with steel
[Verse] You're making noise in my street My blinds are drawn, I can't see Smashed in my car window Didn't touch the stereo
[Chorus] F2FAm Slow it down G (G6) C And you come back to bed
F2FAmG (G6) CC2C6C2CG6 Rest your arms and rest your legs
[Verse] Act like you've been here before Smile less and dress up some more Tie up your scarf real tight These boys are out for blood tonight
[Chorus] Slow it down And you come back to bed Rest your arms and rest your legs
[Break] C2C6C2CG6 C2C6C2C FAmG6C G6
[Verse] And when she stood she stood tall She'll make a fool of you all Don't ask for cigarettes She ain't got nothing left for you
[Verse] I never, she never, we never look back That wasn't what we were good at And when it came to love We were not good enough for it
[Chorus] Slow it down And you come back to bed Rest your arms and rest your legs
[Ending (chorus chords)] Don't you frown When you're feeling like that Only love can pick you out of this
