Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][Bm][G][Bm][G]

[Verse 1]
[A]So I say good
[Bm]bye to a town that has ears and eyes
I can hear you [G]whispering
as [A]I walk b[F#]y[Bm]
Familiar faces smiling back
at me and I [G]knew
This would make them change
[A][F#m][F#][G]

[Verse 2]
[Em]
The only thing that's going to [G]bother me
Is that [Bm]you'll all call yourselves my friends
[D]

[Verse 3]
[G]Why can't you look me in the
[A]eyes one last [D]time?

[Verse 4]
The [D]writings [Bm]on th[A]e wa[Bm]ll, you've read that I'll be g[G]one,
but if you call my [A]name
Just know that I'll come running,
[D]for one more nig[Bm]ht to spare with you[G]
This is where I'm meant to be,
[A]please don't leave me

[Interlude 1]
[Bm][G][Bm][F#][Bm][D][G][D]
[Bm]I've read these stories

[Verse 5]
a thousand times,
and now I'll rewrite them all
You're [G]meddling in an anger
you [A]can't control
She [G]means [Bm]the world to me,
so hold your serpent tongue
Is [G]a whores lies worth dying [F#]for?[A]
I'll just take [D]my [Em]time

[Verse 6]
The only thing that's [Em]going to [G]bother me
Is that you'll [Bm]all call
yourselves my [D]friends

[Verse 7]
[D]
[G]Why can't you look me in the
[A]eyes one last [D]time?
The writings [Bm]on the wall,

[Verse 8]
you've read that I'll [G]be gone,
but if you call my [A]name
Just know that I'll come running,
[D]for one more nig[Bm]ht to spare with you[G]
This is where I'm meant to [A]be,
please don't leave me
[Bm]

[Verse 9]
I walked into your house this morning
I brought [G]the gun [Bm]from our end table
Your blood was strewn
across the walls
They'll [G]find [Bm]you on [G]your
bathroom [D]floor
[Bm]I

[Verse 10]
walked into your [D]house this morning
I [G]brought the [D]gun from our [A]end table
[D]Your blo[Bm]od was str[D]ewn
across the walls
They'll [G]find you [D]on your [G]bath
room [D]floor when I'm done
[Bm]

[Verse 11]
But should [D]I w[G]rit[D]e it a[G]ll [A]off?[Bm]
But should [D]I w[G]rite it all [Bm]off?
But should [D]I w[G]rit[D]e it a[G]ll [Bm]off? (You should
have killed me when you had the chance)
But should I? (You should [D]have killed [G]me
when [D]you had the chance)
You should have killed me
when you had the chance
You should [D]have killed me
when [D]you had the chance
