B                           F#
Weekend wreckers take the streets
G#m                    D#7
With abandon in their eyes
C#m                                    F#
But in our bedroom we're bloodshot and beat
C#m           G#m
And never so alive

Chorus:
E                          B D#7 E
And I know what's on your mind
                     B D#7 E
God knows I put it there
                  B D#7 E
But if I took it back
                     Em
Well you'd be nowhere
                      B
You'd be nowhere again

Now look at you all torn up
I left you waiting to bleed
I guess the truth works two ways
Maybe the truth's not what we need

Chorus

But in my cold arms
You don't sleep
In my cold arms
Your fear beats
In my cold arms
You stay
