[Verso 1]
 

D 
If you were a teacher 
        G 
I would  fail your class 
       Bm 
Take it  over and over 
        F#m          A 
'Til you noticed me 

D 
If you were a waiting room 
        G 
I would  never see a doctor 
        D 
I would  sit there 
                           F#m   A 
With my first aid kit and bleed 

          G             D 
I want to be the power ballad 
               A                Bm 
That lifts you up and hold you down 

        G              D 
I wanna be the broken love song 
      A            Bm 
That feeds your misery 

         G                 D 
And I can  wish all that I want 
       G                D 
But it won't bring us together 

        A             Bm 
Plus I know whatever happens to me 
G                   A        D 
I know it's for the be-e-et-ter

[Verso 2]


     D                     G 
And when broken bodies are  washed Ashore 
Bm                    F#m          A 
  Who am I to ask for more, more, more? 

          Bm                G 
But you're  breathing in my  open Mouth 
            D 
You're the gun in my lips 
          F#m             A 
That will blow my brains out 

           G                  D 
I want to make you drive all night 
             A            Bm          
Just because I said maybe you should 
          G 
Come over 

           G                D 
I want to make you fall in love 
            A                Bm             G 
As hard as my poor parents teenage daughter 
               Em            G 
She'll be the best you ever had if you Let her 

( Bm  G  D  F#m  A )
