unkindest cut  

capo 3^rd chord formations:

D, Bm, F#m7, G

victorious and glorious is the story of this kiss

this kiss of instant death, this kiss of instant bliss

delirious, imperious, I seriously miss

the mystery of mornings passed, that slipped into the mist

you stumble with your synonyms, you stutter when you speak

you mumble as I crumble here, and watch as I get weak

you’re stealing all my feelings, and revealing your mystique

imperiled eyes get paralyzed, can’t shout or scream or shriek

it’s all just greek to me, I seek to be the one you long for

long before you shut the door it’s that your floors wet

can I wipe my feet?

the dirt is thick it sticks to me like glue, it’s true that I need

you much more than you need me but can’t you see

I’d like to be replete

so can’t you please delete the lies, good-byes and memories of deceit,

and give me a receipt

    CHORUS

    Bm, D, G, F#m7

     why do you love to drag me into you

     and make me rue the day

     why do you love to twist this knife straight through

     when kinder cuts still slay?

notorious, but surely this is just a thing they say

I hear that you eat hearts, I hear you like to play

we’re standing on your landing and I wish that I could stay

I fear that if I linger here, I’ll leave in disarray

I’ve seen this scene like sixteen times, I know the way this ends

we hug and cry and say goodbye, and act like we’ll be friends

I’m half-relieved at leaving you, but still I won’t pretend

that I’m not burned alive inside, I guess it all depends

on how you look at things the future brings me songs to sing but

I can’t seem to shut this door before I’m sure that you adore that

other boy much more than me, I understand reality,

it took me all this time to see,

but now I know the score

CHORUS
