[C] I am someone who until rec[C/B] ent events
You shared your secr[Am] ets with
And your loc[G] ation, you forgot to turn it off [C]
And so I watch as [C/B] you walk
Into some bar called The Bla[Am] ck Dog
And pierce new holes in my [G] heart
You forgot to turn it [F] off [Am] [G]
And it hits me
I [F] just don't und[Am] ersta[G] nd
How you don't [C] miss me, in The [C/B] Black Dog
When [Am] someone plays "The Sta[F] rting Line"
And you [C] jump up, but she's [C/B] too young to kno[Am] w this song
That was [F] intertwined in the [C] magic fabr[C/B] ic of our drea[Am] ming [F]
[C] Old hab[C/B] its die screa[Am] ming [F]
[C]
[C] I move through the world with a heart bro[C/B] ken
My longing state uns[Am] poken
And I may never op[G] en up thе way I did for you [C]
And all of those best la[C/B] id plans
You said I needed a br[Am] avе man
Then proceeded to pl[G] ay him
Until I believed it t[F] oo [Am]
And it kil[G] ls me
I ju[F] st don't und[Am] ersta[G] nd
How you don't [C] miss me
In the sho[C/B] wer and rem[Am] ember how my rain-soa[F] ked body
Was sha[C] kin', do you ha[C/B] te me?
Was it haz[Am] ing for a cr[F] uel fraternity?
[C] I pledged and [C/B] I still me[Am] an it [F]
[C] Old habi[C/B] ts die scre[Am] ami[F] ng
[Am] Six weeks of breathin' cle[F] an air
I still miss the smo[C] ke
Were you makin' fun of m[G] e
With some esoteric jo[Am] ke?
Now I wanna sell my ho[F] use
And set fire to all my cl[C] othes
And hire a pri[G] est to come and exorcise my dem[F] ons [Am] [G]
Even if I die scre[C] am[C/B] ing [Am] [F]
And I hope yo[C] u hea[C/B] r it [Am] [F]
And then I hope it's shi[C] tty in The Bla[C/B] ck Dog
When som[Am] eone plays "The Sta[F] rting Line" and you ju[C] mp up
But she's to[C/B] o young to kn[Am] ow this song
That was [F] intertwined in the [C] tragic fabr[C/B] ic of our dre[Am] aming [F]
This ta[C] il between your le[C/B] gs, you're lea[Am] vin' [F]
[C] I still ca[C/B] n't belie[Am] ve it [F]
'Cause o[C] ld habi[C/B] ts die scre[Am] aming [F] 4
