Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C]
[G][C]

[Verse 1]
[D]Making love to a picture fra[Em]me
One more [C]time [Bm]tonight
[D]You can tell by the lin[Em]es
in her smile
Something [C]is not [Bm]right

[Verse 2]
Where are you [D]hiding [Em](hidi[C]ng)
She's on the outside
[Bm]I'm on the inside cryi[D]ng
[Em](crying)
Just another [C]crazy boy
[Bm]Hungry for [G]your

[Verse 3]
Hot love [G]Wrap
yourself around me like [C]a
Warm glove
The emptiness leaves me and [G]I'm
Filled up
Never need to go back to the [C]way I was
The way I was

[Verse 4]
I've [D]tried and tried and tried [Em]and tried
But I have no [C]concept of consequence
[Bm]And I'm a master of self defen[D]se
The days get [Em]longer
Life gets [C]shorter
She rips me [Bm]like no [D]other
So [Em]oh dripping from
[C]head [Bm]to toe

[Verse 5]
Where are you [D]hiding [Em](hidi[C]ng)
She's on the outside
[Bm]I'm on the inside cryi[G]ng

[Verse 6]
Hot love [G]Wrap
yourself around me like [C]a
Warm glove
The emptiness leaves me and [G]I'm
Filled up
Never need to go back to
the [C]way I was
The way I [G]was

[Verse 7]
Hot love [G]Wrap
yourself around me like [C]a
Warm glove
The emptiness leaves me and [G]I'm
Filled up
Never need to go back to
the [C]way I was

[Verse 8]
The way I was
[Am]And I can't make the same mistake
If you [Bm]lose my love
It was yours to take
Break [Em]down your door
Take a little more
When [G]I need you around

[Verse 9]
[Am]And I'm so terrified of leaving
It's [Bm]a new low
Try and pick me up again [C]but
Let go see how far I get
[D]without you
Desperately need more of [G]your

[Verse 10]
Hot love [G]Wrap
yourself around me like [C]a
Warm glove
The emptiness leaves me and [G]I'm
Filled up
Never need to go back to the [C]way I was
The way I [G]was

[Verse 11]
Hot love [G]Wrap
yourself around me like [C]a
Warm glove
The emptiness leaves me and [G]I'm
Filled up
Never need to go back to the [C]way I was
