Capo 1
  

    Em 
The most tender place in my heart is for strangers 
     C                     G                     D 
I know it's unkind but my own blood is much too 
    Em 
dangerous 
    C                   G 
Hangin' round the ceiling half the time 
    C                   G                     Em 
Hangin' round the ceiling half the time 

Em 
Compared to some I've been around, but I really tried so hard 
     C                           G 
That echo chorus lied to me with its 
         D        Em 
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on 
       C             G 
In the end I was the mean girl 
       D            G 
Or somebody's in-between girl 
             Em 
Now it's the devil I love 
              C                   G 
And that's as funny as real love 

D  B7 
            Em       C 
I leave the party at three a.m. 
 G                D 
Alone, thank God 
       Em              C 
With a valium from the bride 
         G        D 
It's the devil I love 
          Em 
It's the devil I love 
              C                   G 
And that's as funny as real love 
              C                   G 
And that's as real as true love

That echo chorus lied to me with its 
          D       Em 
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on 

     C                           G 
That echo chorus lied to me with its 
          D        Em 
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
