[Verse]
I G/Bshouldn't lEmaugh, but I D/F#know I'm a Gfailure in your Ceyes
I know its daft, but I guess I know it deep inside
It feels like we're ready to crack these days, you and I      3x2 3x2 3x4 3x4 3x2 3x2 3x4 3x4
When it's just the two of us, only the two of us, I could die
[Pre-Chorus]
    Em* (754)             Em** (654)
You left my heart like an abandoned car
 Dm* (554)          Dm** (454)
Old and worn and no use at all
    Cm*
But I used to be free...
[Chorus]
       G/B   GWe're gonna separate ourselves tonight
       G/B   EmWe're always running scared but holding knives
       Dsus4   CBut there's a black chandelier

[Verse]
IG/B'll sit in sEmilence for the D/F#rest of my Glife if you'd Clike
Dressing our wounds with industrial gloves made of wire
Feel it penetrating the skin, we begin to relax
                                                                3x2 3x2 3x4 3x4 3x2 3x2 3x4 3x4
When it's just the two of us, and a cute little cup of cyanide
