             Fm                C#
Why do I sabotage everything I love?
             G#                       Cm
It's always beautiful until I fuck it up

Fm                        C#
Tell myself I'm safe and lonely
G#                   Cm7
With nobody else to break my heart
Fm                        C#
Even though I know you'd never
       G#                            D#
I'm my own worst enemy and think you are

C#
Matches in my back pocket
Fm
I'm the queen of burnin' bridges
G#                  C7
I will only let you down

Chorus:
              Fm                C#
Why do I sabotage everything I love?
             G#                       Cm
It's always beautiful until I fuck it up
             Fm                 C#
Why do I sabotage everything I love?
               G#                             Cm
The walls are closin' in because I built them up

Why can't I let myself be happy?
Why do I gotta get in my own way?
My shoes are worn out, always runnin'
From the reasons that I really wanna stay

Matches in my back pocket
I'm the queen of burnin' bridges
I will only let you down

Chorus

                A#m
So don't let me hope too high
             Fm
Don't let me hope too high
       D#                           Cm
'Cause I will find a way to tear it down every time
             A#m
Don't let me hope too high
           G#
When everything is right
       D#                           C7
'Cause I will find a way to tear it down every time
      Fm                C#
I sabotage everything I love
            G#                        Cm
It's always beautiful until I fuck it up

Chorus

Why do I sabotage?
