Tuning: Standard EADGBe
palm muted
You hit the nail on the head tonight
Everything you do is in spite
I'll be alright
,, (4x)
Verse 1
How does she do this to me?
How have I fallen completely?
She's just a girl
But she's my world
Consequently
She reads books and I read hearts
The line we color in never starts
But she can kill me with her smile
I'd brush it off but I'd be in denial.
,, (4x)
CHORUS
This is the killing and I don't know where to start
It troubles me, lack of complexity, that we would ever have to part
This is the killing, Control is only true
When it belongs to someone and that someone isn't you
,, (4x)
Verse 2
Her eyes were ocean green
Beautiful yet so damn obscene
The night could not be controlled
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
And I knew she was for me
The way she spoke it was, it was so sweet
Akwardly, are you gonna kiss me?
CHORUS
,, (4x)
You hit the nail on the head tonight
I thought everything you did was in spite
I'm not alright
