Verse:
[E]In [B]muddy [C]grass we stand [A]side by [E]side[B]
with our [C]knuckles [A]interlocked
[E]Black [B]dresses [C]flood the [A]c e[E]mete[B]ry
in this [C]cliche trag[A]edy
[A]Just do as you're instructed a[A]nd....
[C]Take this razor[D] and cut your [A]palms
I'll do the same until a [E]river of crimson [B]begins to [C]flow
Now drip your ruby [D]red over the [A]casket
A [E]funeral for my [B]once loved [A]youth
Pre-chorus:
My [E]secret [B]is fatally [C]gorgeous
[A]I'd die for [A]you
But in this [E]Bonnie and [B]Clyde kind of [C]romance
[A]tell me what wou[A]ld you do?
My [E]secret is [B]fatally g[C]orgeous
[A]I'd die f[A]or you
But when your[E] precious [B]life is at[C] stake
tell me [A]would you [B]die for me [C]too?
Chorus:
[E]The quivering liqu[B]ids in your s[C]tomach
will eat away at the bad h[A]abits that have made you
a real [E]character in the [B]story of your now di[C]stant life
[A2]Goodnight and goo[A2]dbye, quickly
