                         G#m
Feels like you made a mistake
You made somebody's heart break
                          C#m
But now I have to let you go
                  G#m
I have to let you go

            G#m D#
You left a stain
                    E      D#
On every one of my good days
                            C#m
But I am stronger than you know
                  D#
I have to let you go

               E
No one's ever turned you over
F#
No one's tried
   G#m           C#m
To ever let you down
           E          D#
Beautiful girl, bless your heart

Chorus:
         G#m
I got a disease
Deep inside me
      C#m             D#
Makes me feel uneasy, baby
I can't live without you
         G#m
Tell me what am I s'posed to do about it
Keep your distance from it
Don't pay no attention to me
I got a disease

Feels like you're makin' a mess
You're hell on wheels in a black dress
You drove me to the fire
And left me there to burn

Every little thing you do is tragic
All my life before was magic
Beautiful girl
I can't breathe

Chorus:
I got a disease
Deep inside me
Makes me feel uneasy, baby
I can't live without you
Tell me what am I s'posed to do about it
Keep your distance from it
Don't pay no attention to me
I got a disease

Yeah well I think that I'm sick
Better leave me be
While my world is coming down on me
You taste like honey, honey
Tell me can I be your honey
Bee, be strong
Keep tellin' myself that it won't take long 'til
I'm free of my disease
Yeah, well, free of my disease
Free of my disease, oh

Chorus:
I got a disease
Deep inside me
Makes me feel uneasy, baby
I can't live without you
Tell me what am I supposed to do about it
Keep your distance from it
Don't pay no attention to me
I got a disease

Yeah, well, I think that I'm sick
Better leave me be
While my world is comin' down on me
You taste like honey, honey
Tell me can I be your honey
Bee, be strong
Keep tellin' myself that it won't take long 'til
I'm free of my disease
Yeah, well, free of my disease
Set me free of my disease
Oh, yeah
