D                     Em
I think I fell in love again
D                           Em
Maybe I just took too much cough medicine
         A
I'm the best worst thing
that hasn't happened to you yet
The best worst thing
               D
You take the full, full truth,
          Em

You take the full, full truth,

And you can kill me,

Chorus

I wish I dreamt in the shape of your mouth
But it's your thread count I really care about
Stay up 'til the lights go out
Stay up, Stay up
You take the full, full truth, then you pour some out
You take the full, full truth, then you pour some out
And as we're drifting off to sleep
All those dirty thoughts of me
They were never yours to keep, keep, whoa

D
Altar boys, altered boys
We’re the things that love destroys
(I'm an American...I'm an American)
You, me, us, them
We’re just resurrection men
(I'm an American...I'm an American)
Us, we were only meant, to make you live again
(I'm an American...I'm an American)
Us, we were pity sex, nothing more and nothing less
(I'm an American)
