          E                         B
I don't think that this feels like love
                      F# C#
But I don't wanna let go
      E                      B
Maybe if I just do what you want
                      F#   G#m
Then you'll leave me alone
    E                           B
It feels like you're taking me home
                 F#                C#
But every other day I see another bone
             E
I hate your guts
                        B                  E
But I'll meet you same time, same place tomorrow

Chorus:
    E       B      F#           C#
An archaeology excavation on my body
          E            G#m
And I'm brushing so gently
              E                       G#m
They're tryna cover up the bones underneath
   E                          B  F# C#
No matter what I'll do I feel guilty

Crossing all my fingers and toes
That I don't wake up again in a black hole
She said she would send me back home to decide
If I wanna die miserable
Doctor, I'm not doing too well
If this shit was a choice I wouldn't need your help
I see the world through the eyes of a dog but
I can't see yellow

Chorus

G#m                     B          F#         C# E
Man's best friend's on first name terms with God
G#m              B   F# G#m F#   E C#7
I thought I can fake it but I'm not
G#m                 B      G#m    C#
I'm a scarecrow in someone else’s garden

Chorus

No matter what I do I feel guilty
