F#          G#
I don't smoke
           Fm          F#
Except for when I'm missing you
     F#               G#
To remember your mouth, how it
Fm      F#
Tasted true
    F#           G#
And I don't smoke
           Fm         F#
Except for after I've held you, baby
F#            G#
Being with you
           Fm        F#
Makes the flame burn good

Chorus:
           F#           G#
So if you need to be mean
    Fm     F#
Be mean to me
     D#m           Fm       F#      G#
I can take it and put it inside of me
        F#                G#
If your hands need to break
           A#m             Fm
More than trinkets in your room
         D#m       G#
You can lean on my arm
        Fm       F#
As you break my heart

I'm what's left of when we swam under the moon
Now the rest of my days are just waiting for when
You've calmed down and tell me, "I was meant for you", baby
Being with you makes the flame burn good

Chorus:
If you need to be mean, be mean to me
I can take it and put it inside of me
If your hands need to break more than trinkets in your room
You can lean on my arm as you break my heart

            F#            G#
Just don't leave me alone
           Fm         F#
Wondering where you are
      D#m           Fm
I am stronger than you give me
F#     G#
Credit for
         F#             G#
If your hands need to break
           A#m             Fm
More than trinkets in your room
         D#m        G#
You can lean on my arm
       Fm        F#
As you break my heart
