[Verse]
Am                                   
I've grown a mouth so sharp and cruel
Am7  C                          Fmaj7   F Fmaj7
It's all that I can give to you my dear ■ ■    
Am                            C           
And when you come in quick to steal a kiss
                       F    Fmaj7 E7     
My teeth will only cut your lips  my dear


[Chorus]
F          G                C   
And I know that you mean so well
F        C                E7              
But I am not a vessel for your good intent
  Am                          G      Gbm7
I will only break your pretty things ■   
Am                           A7        
I will only wring you dry of everything
       F                    
But if you're fine with that
Fmaj7 E7               E   
You   can be mine like that

[Verse]
Am                            
Abandon all your stupid dreams
C7                          F           
About the girl I could have been my dear
Am                             C                 
'cause in the night I know you burn with feelings
         F             
I cannot return my dear
   E7     
Oh my dear
F         G              C         
You gotta know that this won't last
F                              
Desperation will erase the fact
Am  E          
I'm keeping all


[Chorus]
Am                   G         Am 
Of the answers in my cigarette box
Am                                                         
Yeah the answer's in the second before the other shoe drops
    F                  Fmaj7
And if you're blind to that 
E                  
I am fine with that

[Chorus]
F                 
Oh I will ruin you
          C        D7
Oh I will ruin you ■ 


[Verse]
F                Am    C    Cmaj7 F E7
■ It's a habit I can't help ■     ■ it
E F             G           C   
■ ■ I know that you mean so well
F        G            E7                  
But I am not a vessel for your good intent


[Chorus]
Am          E7                G     
I will only break your pretty things
  Am                         D         
I will only wring you dry of everything
    F         Fmaj7         
And if you're fine with that
E                       
If you're fine with that
  Am                                 
I will poison all your happy thoughts
                          Am                 
I love you like the ashes in my cigarette box
                        F   
And if you're fine with that
           Fmaj7 E
You can be mine  ■
E7 F                       
■  If you're fine with that
           E7  
You can be mine
