[Intro]
Am F Dm E7
[Verse 1]
Am F
I could tell the real story,
Dm E7
but I know you wouldn't listen
Am F
I've tried to tell it many times, but
Dm E7
you always go and twist it, yeah
Am F
Nearly every morning that I cry
C E7
Waking up to words to throwing knives, mmm
Am F
Swear I'm looking in the mirror, but
C E7
I'm seeing someone different
[Pre-Chorus]
Am
Looking at you lick your lips,
you think you know me
Am
Making faces at me while
you paint mine for me
Am
Say my name, say my name
like you know it's holy
[Chorus]
Am Dm
Everybody wants a taste
C E7
But the truth is hard to chase
Am Dm
Pretty poison in my mind
C E7
and in my veins (Mmm)
Am Dm
If my name is in your throat
C E7
Your words are dead, I hope you choke
Am Dm
But in the end, I hope you know,
C
I hopе you know
N.C. Am
I'm in your veins like pretty poison
[Verse]
Am F
You think you'rе kissing on my scars
C E7
while you rip 'em wide open
Am F
You sugarcoat your sharp teeth while
C E7
you're praying on me broken
Am F
You couldn't hate me more than I hate myself
C E7
Add it to my wrist, I can go to Hell
Am F
If you think you want me dead,
C Am
go ahead, here's a token
[Chorus]
Am F
Everybody wants a taste
Dm E7
But the truth is hard to chase
Am F Dm
Pretty poison in my mind and in my veins
Am F
If my name is in your throat
C E7
Your words are dead, I hope you choke
Am F C
But in the end, I hope you know, I hope you know
E7 Am F C
I'm in your veins like pretty poison
E7 Am F C
I'm in your veins like pretty poison
E7 Am
I'm in your veins like pretty poison
