Verse 1:
[E]Emma appeared like an angel

I'm [E]running dry of bad excuses
[A]Don't want to lie or [B]seem intrusive
[E]But time hasn't told me
any[A]thing and neither has [B]she
Chorus 1:
A poin[C#m]settia in
poison [A]rain
Traded [E]true love for
insult and [B]injury

the [A]drain with [E]one silver

With two vico[E]din[A] [B]
Verse 2:
[E]Emma woke up in darkness
suit[A]case already [B]packed
[E] Note on the bedstand signed
in blood "Sincere[A]ly
never coming [B]back"
A [E]nightmare on my street
the day she arrived
A [A]nightmarish household
in [B]which she died because
it [E]made her feel at home
Somehow [A]made me feel at [B]home
Chorus 2:
A poin[C#m]settia in poison [A]rain
Traded [E]true love for

through the [B]heart and two vico[E]din[A] [B] [E] [A] [B]

Chorus 4:
We [C#m]watched the sun fall [A]crown
on a [E]city that sleeps
in a [B]world upside down
A s[C#m]low ticket
straight out of [A]town
You went [E]out with a bang when
you [B]took with you all
my dreams under[E]ground[A]
With [B]you all my
dreams under[E]ground[A]
With [B]you all my
dreams under[E]ground[A]
With [B]you all my
E A B E(hold)
dreams underground
