[Intro]
E, Asus2, Bsus4, A
[Verse 1]
[E]I've seen your kind before
De[Asus2]fender of the cr[E]own
You've got your s[Asus2]hades of swagger [E]on
Every t[Asus2]ime you [Bsus4]come ar[A]ound
[Verse 2]
Got your motives on your mind
Your worries, far and few
A car crash, or a carnival
Well, it's all the same to you
[Pre-Cborus]
You're c[Asus2]hasing like
Some [E]holy grail
A [Asus2]far from grace
But [E]never fails, when
[Cborus]
[(E)]You give me [Asus2]something I can [E]use
[Asus2]I [E]need the [Bsus4]perfect e[E]xcuse
[(E)]You're an offer on the table I [Asus2]just can't re[E]fuse
Asus2 E Bsus4 E Asus2 Bsus4 A (x2)
You're all I need, you're the perfect excuse
[Verse 3]
And the ice beneath is is paper thin
I can hear it boom and crack
Take one more step down this greasy slope
And there'll be no turning back
[Verse 4]
I don't have no sober second thought
To stop what you've begun
There's no saving me tonight
There's no saving anyone
[Pre-Cborus]
So, push the button
Start me up
Spin the wheel
Now try your luck and
[Cborus]
You give me something I can use
I need the perfect excuse
You're an offer on the table I just can't refuse
You're all I need, you're the perfect excuse
[Bridge]
E Asus2 E, Asus2, Bsus4, A
And my defense is running down
E Asus2 E, Asus2, Bsus4, A
Arms twisted, hands are bound
[E]To hope, line, and sink her are [Asus2]all I can see
[E]Doing your w[Asus2]orst has got the [Bsus4]best of [A]me
[Verse 5]
Well, I've been here before
Forgive me for my sins
Coming to in the afternoon
Seeing what the cat dragged in
[Pre-Cborus]
You're chasing like
Some holy grail
A far from grace
But never fails, when
So, push the button
Start me up
Spin the wheel
Now try your luck and
[Cborus]
You give me something I can use
I need the perfect excuse
You're an offer on the table I just can't refuse
You're all I need
You're something I can use
I need the perfect excuse
You're an offer on the table I just can't refuse
You're all I need, you're the perfect excuse
Perfect excuse
You're a perfect excuse
You're a perfect excuse
