Verse 1
    Em
The boy I love’s got another girl
He might be fucking her right now
Am
I don’t have an apartment
                                   Em
Thought if I was smart I’d make it far
But I’m still at the start
             Em
Guess I’m contagious it’d be safest if you ran
Fuck that’s what they all just end up doing in the end
        Am
Take my car and paint it black
Take my arm, break it in half
        Em
Say something, do it soon
It’s too quiet in this room
Chorus
       G
I need noise
           Am
I need the buzz of a sub
         Em
Need the crack of a whip
Need some blood in the cut
       G
I need noise
           Am
I need the buzz of a sub
         Em
Need the crack of a whip
Need some blood in the cut
       Em*
I need blood in the cut
I need blood in the cut

Verse 2
Em
Met back up with the boy I love
Cried on the streets of San Francisco
Am
I don’t have an agenda
                          Em
All I do is pretend to be ok so my friends
Can’t see my heart in the blender
    Em
And lately I’ve been killing all my time
Reading through your messages
My favorite way to die
        Am
Take my head and kick it in
Break some bread for all my sins
      Em
Say a word, do it soon
It’s too quiet in this room
Chorus
       Em
I need noise
I need the buzz of a sub
         Em
Need the crack of a whip
Need some blood in the cut
       Em
I need noise
I need the buzz of a sub
         Em
Need the crack of a whip
Need some blood in the cut
       Em*
I need blood in the cut
I need blood in the cut

Blood in the cut, cut, cut

Na na na na na....
Chorus
       Em
I need noise
I need the buzz of a sub
         Em
Need the crack of a whip
Need some blood in the cut

I need noise
I need the buzz of a sub
         Em
Need the crack of a whip
Need some blood in the cut
       Em*
I need blood in the cut
                    N.C.
I need blood in the cut

My father was a user

In a house on a cliff on the coast

Well I prayed to my god with a toast

All I wanted was to never get old
     A                    C
On a bed in a room with a key

I was reading a rag magazine
       A                                C
Said a cheers to the demons who’ve been with me all evening

All I wanted was to never be seen

 Nobody showed you how to live?  Me either  
F       A#                    D D#
 Get a steady job, couple kids, act decent
F              A#
 But I’ve been on a ten-speed 
                    D               D#
 Thinking about the time as the sun sets
      F           A#
 Like, what would I do different 
                     D       D#
 If I hit rewind and did it again?
  F                      A#
 I, I tried to figure it out 
 But nothing was coming to mind
 D
 Remembered all my mistakes
 D#
 But the memories made me smile
F           A#
 I told the one that I loved 
 That love would mean letting me go
             D
 Even though I was afraid
            D#
 You gotta do some things on your own

 You go to heaven when you die  I’m betting

 You’re still with me on the line? Just checking
F             A#
 Cause I’ve been making fast friends 
                   D                 D#
 Late at night the kind when the sun sets
     F        A#                          D           D#
 Like, waking up and thinking honey why I do it again?
      F                 A#
 I, I came to in a cold sweat 
 With a nosebleed feeling hopeless
 D
 Thought I maybe might be dead 
        D#
 Till I got my pen sat down and wrote this
 F                      A#
 Suddenly I felt fine inside a mind so full of ghosts
     N.C.
 The darkest nights mean you see the stars the most
Chorus

Bridge
                   Gm              F
I used to knock on wood, I used to never curse
                  Dm                D#
I used to think I could control the universe
                  Gm                     F
With my obsessive thoughts and what felt like a prayer
                 Dm                      D#
I shouted to the sky don’t let my family disappear
                Gm              F
I used to feel alone, I used to not belong
                 Dm                   D#
But little did I know I had the power all along
                  Gm            F            Dm D#
The only thing to fear is never being scared
Chorus

Intro
C# F# C# F#
Verse 1
C#
We met on a Wednesday
In the summer, it was blazing
F#
You looked at my black jeans, said "are you crazy?"
                     C#
I guess I might have laughed
And after that you stuck to me like glue
              F#
But you had a girl at home and too many tattoos
           C#
I was in a rough patch, real depressed
                               F#
You took my hand and said "the sun it rises in the east" 
But I came from the west
            C#
My heart it skipped and that was that
                                  F#
I should have known don’t trust a poet
Cause they can’t do the math
Chorus
                  C#
I’m always in the wrong place at the wrong time
            F#
Headed on a bad trip with the wrong high
               C#
I don’t really know why
                      F#
But you felt right to me
               C#
I hadn’t had a good thing in a long time
              F#
Moving in the fast lane with the wrong guy
               C#
I don’t really know why 
                      F#
But you felt right to me
Interlude
C# F#
Verse 2
C#
We met on a Friday
In the winter, it was freezing
F#
Felt a bit like history repeating
               C#
We’d been on a break 
But then decided we could try to spend the night like friends
    F#           N.C.
And roam the city, knowing what that meant
           C#
So we were back and I was pouring poison
                              F#
Texting you reports from everywhere I went
And you’d write back I miss you even more
           N.C.
And it was torture for me
I should have known don’t trust a poet
Cause they prefer to bleed
Chorus
                  C#
I’m always in the wrong place at the wrong time
            F#
Headed on a bad trip with the wrong high
               C#
I don’t really know why
                      F#
But you felt right to me
               C#
I hadn’t had a good thing in a long time
              F#
Moving in the fast lane with the wrong guy
               C#
I don’t really know why 
                      F#
But you felt right to me
Verse 3
C#
Wrote this on a Sunday after months out on the road
       F#
Wonder if you have regrets and which direction those thoughts go
     C#
Like was it worth it in the end?
                                 F#
Sometimes it feels like you just used me for my mind and innocence
          C#
And now I heard you had a kid, finished a book and got a wife
            F#
Things been good to you since that last goodbye
           N.C.
But I just have to say my piece
You should have known don’t trust a poet
Cause we know how to speak
[Final Chorus
                  C#
I’m always in the wrong place at the wrong time
            F#
Headed on a bad trip with the wrong high
               C#
I don’t really know why
                      F#
But you felt right to me
               C#
I hadn’t had a good thing in a long time
              F#
Moving in the fast lane with the wrong guy
               C#
I don’t really know why 
                      F#
But you felt right to me
                  C#
You felt right to me
                  F#
You felt right to me
                  C# F#
You felt right to me
