[Intro 1]
[Em][A][D][G][Em][A][D][C]
[Bm][D]

[Verse 1]
Put on my be[A]st dress,
I wanted to [Am]impress
I [G]put a little make-up on
[D]on
Put a bow in my [A]hair,
wore pretty un[Am]derwear
[G]Hoping you might take [D]it off
Don't know your [A]etiquette
But I'm strapped [Am]to my chair
And [G]it ain't 'cause you're [D]pretty
You were charming, un[A]til
You saw your [Am]chance to kill
Your [G]chance to make [Em]history

[Verse 2]
You went straight for [A]the knife
And I pre[D]pared to die
Your [G]blade [Em]it shines
Looked me straight in [A]the eye
You turned the [D]gas on high
Held [C]the flame alight
[Bm]You wonder why
[D]I'm scared of fire
You [C]wonder why you [G]make girls cry

[Verse 3]
[D]
My mascara [A]a mess,
harsh word[Am]s for your princess
[G]Boy, you and your promises
[D]If your goal was to [A]love,
you scored [Am]an epic miss
[G]Now you'll just have memor[Em]ies

[Verse 4]
You went straight for [A]the knife
And I pre[D]pared to die
Your [G]blade it [Em]shines
Looked me straight in [A]the eye
You turned the [D]gas on high
Held [C]the flame alight
[Bm]You wonder why
[C]I'm scared of fire
You wonder why you [G]make girls cry

[Verse 5]
[A]
Boy, you [G]draw me back [Bm]in
[A]I'm hungry for [G]your
bad [Bm]lov [D]ing[A]
But will someone find [G]me swinging
from the [D]rafter[C] s[Bm]
From hanging [D]on your [C]every word
[Bm][Em]

[Verse 6]
You went straight for [A]the knife
And I pre[D]pared to die
Your [G]blade it [Em]shines
Looked me straight in the [A]eye
You turned the [D]gas on high
Held [C]the flame alight
[Bm]You wonder why
[D]I'm scared of fire
You [C]wonder why you [G]make girls cry

[Verse 7]
You [C]wonder why you [G]make girls cry

[Outro 1]
