          G#m
You have poison in your heart
          Em      D#
Yeah I'm sure of it
    G#m
I knew right from the start
          Em          D#
From the moment we met

      B               Em
You know we have to break up
       G#m         D#
You'll always be alone

Chorus:
      E/G#           D#m            C#m
You know you've never ever been a friend
 Emaj7     D#m          C#m
Now we're closer to the edge
     G#m
Oh oh oh, no
Oh oh oh, no

There's poison in your mind
Yeah I'm sure of it
You've never been that kind
With all due respect
You know it's time to break up
You'll always be alone

Chorus:
You know you've never ever been a friend
Now we're closer to the end
Oh oh oh, no
Oh oh oh, no

            Emaj7           D#m        C#m
We've been walking far too long this icy road
     Emaj7          D#m            C#m
My broken heart is colder than a stone
    Emaj7           D#m           C#m
I know you've never ever been a friend
 Emaj7   D#m     C#m
Now you push me to the edge

Oh oh oh, no
Oh oh oh, no
