(Verse 1)
"I don't [C]love you [Em]anymore"
A pretty [Am]line that I [F]adore
Five [C]words that I've [Em]heard [Am]before [F]
'Cause you [C]keep me on a [Em]rope
And tied a [Am]noose around my [F]throat
You're [C]gone, then [Em]back at my [Am]door [F].
(Pre-Chorus)
'Cause if you're gonna [C]leave,
better leave, better do [Em]it fast
Can't [Am]live a little longer,
sitting [F]on your lap
'Cause [C]you know what you're doing
when you're [Em]coming back
And [Am]I don't want to have another [F]heart attack.
(Chorus)
Oh, [C]I [Em]can't [Am]be
[F]your lover on a [C]leash
[Em]Every other [Am]week when you please [F]
Oh, [C]I [Em]can't [Am]be
the [F]kiss that you don't [C]need
The [Em]lie between your [Am]teeth
(Post-Chorus)
The [F]cut that always [C]bleeds [Em] [Am]
The [F]cut that always [C]bleeds
[Em]Ah - Ah - [Am]Ah. [F]
(Verse 2)
Say you [C]love somebody [Em]new
then beat my [Am]heart to black and [F]blue
Then they [C]leave, and it's [Em]me you come [Am]back to [F]
To say you [C]loved me all [Em]along
and kissed the [Am]bruises 'til they're [F]gone
Bitter [C]sweet, 'cause I can't [Em]breathe
inside your [Am]arms. [F]
(Pre-Chorus)
'Cause if you're gonna [C]leave,
better leave, better do [Em]it fast
Can't [Am]live a minute bleeding [F]from my back
'Cause [C]I don't have another one for you to [Em]stab
And [Am]I don't want to have another [F]heart attack.
(Chorus)
Oh, [C]I [Em]can't [Am]be [F]your lover on a [C]leash
[Em]Every other [Am]week when you please
Oh, [C]I [Em]can't [Am]be the [F]kiss that you don't [C]need
The [Em]lie between your [Am]teeth
(Post-Chorus)
The [F]cut that always [C]bleeds [Em] [Am]
The [F]cut that always [C]bleeds
[Em]Ah - Ah - [Am]Ah. [F]
(Bridge)
[C]Ooh [Em]Ooh But [Am]even though you're [F]killing me
[C]I... [Em]I...- I, I [Am]need you like the [F]air I breathe
I [C]need, I need you [Em]more than me
I [Am]need you more than [F]anything
[C]Plea [Em]se, [Am]plea[F]se.
(Outro)
'Cause [C]I [Em]could [Am]be your [F]lover on a [C]leash
[Em]Every other [Am]week when you [F]please
Oh, [C]I [Em]could [Am]be [F]anything you need [C]
As [Em]long as you don't [Am]leave
The [F]cut that always...
