   Gm
I never trust a narcissist
                A#
But they love me
      Gm
So I play 'em like a violin
                   Cm    Dm
And I make it look oh-so-easy
           Gm
'Cause for every lie I tell them
                  A#
They tell me three
  D#
This is how the world works
            Cm     Dm       D#
Now all he thinks about is me

                                Gm
I can feel the flames on my skin
             F             D#
Crimson red paint on my lips
                                           Cm
If a man talks shit, then I owe him nothing
                      Dm                     Gm
I don't regret it one bit, 'cause he had it coming

Chorus:
                            Gm
  They say I did something bad
                         A#
  Then why's it feel so good?
                            D#
  They say I did something bad
                      Cm     Dm
  But why's it feel so  good?
                   Gm
  Most fun I ever had
                A#
  And I'd do it over and over
                   D#
  and over again if I could
                 Cm    Dm
  It just felt so  good,  good

I never trust a playboy, but they love me
So I fly 'em all around the world
And I let them think they saved me
They never see it comin', what I do next
This is how the world works
You gotta leave before you get left

I can feel the flames on my skin
He says, "Don't throw away a good thing"
But if he drops my name, then I owe him nothin'
And if he spends my change, then he had it comin'

Chorus

Gm
They're burning all the witches,
            A#        F
even if you aren't one
D#                                 Cm
They got their pitchforks and proof
                    Dm
Their receipts and reasons
D#
They're burning all the witches,
            Gm        F
even if you aren't one
    D#
So light me up (light me up),
light me up (light me up)
 Cm                        Dm
Light me up, go ahead and light me up
(light me up)
 Gm
Light me up (light me up),
light me up (light me up)
Light me up (light me up), light me up

Chorus

So bad, why's it feel so good?
Why's it feel, why's it feel so good? (bad)
It just felt so good, good
