          G#m7
You might kill me with desire
        G#m6
Wind me tighter than a wire
                        Emaj7
It's something that you do to me
                G#m     F#
I run away like mercury
      G#m7
And I know you think it's rough
            G#m6
When you're try'na patch us up
                Emaj7
And I say honey what is love?
                G#m          F#/A#
You just say I drink too much

Chorus:
B                            C#m  G#m
Maybe I'm defective or maybe I'm dumb
    F#                            Emaj7
I'm sorry, so sorry for what I've done
B                              C#m  G#m
Maybe I'm bad natured or maybe I'm young
    F#                            Emaj7
I'm sorry, so sorry for what I've done

And on the t-shirt that I wear
Pick the thorns out of my hair
I broke your heart so carelessly
But made the pieces part of me
And now it hurts what we've become
'Cause you taught me how to love
It's me who taught you how to stop
And you just say I drink too much

Chorus

Emaj7                         F#  G#m
I've waited for this, I'm ready for it
                                    B
I've waited for this, I'm ready for it
        C#m        G#m
I been waiting so long

Emaj7                         F#  G#m
I've waited for this, I'm ready for it
                                    B
I've waited for this, I'm ready for it
        C#m        G#m
I been waiting so long

Chorus
