C                          Am
Every night you sacrifice your soul
C                               Am
Just to keep the ones you love most close
D
Nothing ever comes back from it
F                                     C
Don't you wonder why nobody else can see it
                      Am
Everybody says breathe, but the deeper I breathe
          C                     Am
The more bugs fly down my throat
D                                       F
Probably got a little nest down in my stomach
And they're turning into butterflies

Chorus:
C                       Am         Em
Everybody scares me but you-oo-oo-oooo
F                     Am        G
Nobody scares me but you oo oo oo
C                       Am        Em
You're pretty scary or maybe I'm just a pansy
F                           Am
That's pretty likely but I really really miss
        G
Yeah I really really miss you

My friend gave me a piece of honeycomb steel
And I kept it in my bedroom for three whole years
But my mum cleaned my room and she threw it away
Little things that remind me of better days
They make me smile for a while then it goes away
Nostalgia in my bedroom

Chorus:
Everybody scares me but you-ooh-ooh-ooh
Nobody scares me but you
You're pretty scary or maybe I'm just a pansy
That's pretty likely but I really, really miss
Yeah, I really, really miss you

Yeah, I really, really miss
Yeah, I really, really miss you
