Jason Friedman - Poison Chords
INTRO:
D Bm Em A
VERSE:
D
I hear footsteps in the Hall every night,
Bm
I see a shadow underneath my door
Em
There’s a hole punched threw the wall,
A
Are you happy now?
D
Your memory cuts into my days,
Bm
And then buries all my nights away
Em
Speaking of you is like digging my own grave
A
You’re my poison now
PRE-CHORUS:
G
Cause you still call,
D
When you need someone to love,
Bm
When you need a hand to touch
A
Or throw my face down in the mud
G
And watch me fall
D
Till I’m crawling on knees,
Bm
Till my fingers crack and bleed
A G
Cause you’ve taken every part of me
CHORUS:
G D A
You’re my poison now
G D A
You’re my poison now
G D A
Can I drain every drop of you out?
G D A
Cause all you are now
D D
Is poison
Bm Bm
You’re poison
VERSE:
D
It’s not because I’m left alone to wonder why
Bm
Or what became of the heart
That will shape so much with mine
Em
Even that now I’m a stranger in your eyes
A
That’s not what tears me down
D
It’s how you made my worst of days
Never seem as grey
Bm
It’s remembering the sunshine on your face
Em
And knowing that once the sweetest taste
A
Is only poison now
PRE-CHORUS:
G
Cause you still call,
D
When you need someone to love,
Bm
When you need a hand to touch
A
Or throw my face down in the mud
G
And watch me fall
D
Till I’m crawling on knees,
Bm
Till my fingers crack and bleed
A G
Cause you’ve taken every part of me
CHORUS:
G D A
You’re my poison now
G D A
You’re my poison now
G D A
Can I drain every drop of you out?
G D A
Cause all you are now
Is poison
INSTRUMENTAL/SOLO:
G D A
G D A
G D A A D
VERSE:
D
I Hope there will be a time in your life
Bm
That our light comes back and it shines through your eyes
Em
And when you can see clear enough to find
A
I won’t be found
D
So while you’re running through this world, so blind
Bm
I’m gonna be running free with my arms open wide
Em
And for the first time in such a long time
A
I can say I’m happy now
I’m happy now,
I’m happy now
PRE-CHORUS:
G
So don’t you call,
D
And tell me you’re still in love
Bm
And that you miss me way too much
A
Cause you don't see how deep
G
You made us fall
D
From a flower into a weed
Bm
From a lover into a thief
A
You just stolen my life from me
CHORUS:
G D A
I won’t be poisoned now
G D A
And I won’t be poisoned now
G D A
And I drained every drop of you out
G D A
Cause all you are now
G
Is who we are
A
Like you are to me
G A
All you still are
D D
Is poison
Bm Em
You're poison
A
Are you happy now?
