  D#mI caught you coming home from wC#7orkB7  
  D#mIn your faded little-collared shC#7irt
And now I’m B7itching to remove it
  D#mIgnore the whimpers of your roommate’s dC#7ogB7  
  D#mI’m keeping with it until your shirt comes oC#7ff
And wB7e’ll be those crude huF#mans
[Chorus]
F#With all those G#mbruises
And half of our D#mclothes still on
To keep us C#uncomfortable
And we’ll F#sleep
When we’re tired of G#mmoving
Our arms and our D#mlegs entwined
Pretending that C#you are all mine

[Verse]

D#m C#7 B7

I caught you coming home from work

D#m C#7

In your faded little-collared shirt

And now I’m itching to remove it

D#m C#7 B7

Ignore the whimpers of your roommate’s dog

D#m C#7

I’m keeping with it until your shirt comes off

B7 F#

And we’ll be those crude humans

[Chorus]

F# G#m

With all those bruises

D#m

And half of our clothes still on

To keep us uncomfortable

And we’ll sleep

G#m

When we’re tired of moving

D#m

Our arms and our legs entwined

Pretending that you are all mine

[Instrumental]

D#m C#7 B7

[Verse]

D#m C#7 B7

You caught me at a record low and got under my weak skin

D#m C#7

I wonder if he really knows

B7 D#m

The kind of shit you get to screaming

C#7 B7

I wonder if he’s really clean

D#m C#7 B7 F#

I wonder what he’d think of me if he knew what we’re doing

[Chorus]

F# G#m

With all those bruises

D#m

And half of our clothes still on

To keep us uncomfortable

Could see us sleep

G#m

When we’re tired of moving

D#m

Our arms and our legs entwined

Pretending that you are all mine

[Bridge 1]

C# F#

Cause, I’m not yours

G#m

No, that’s not right

D#m C#

I’m just a novelty you’re toying with to complicate your life

We’re not even friends

G#m

I’m just the means to an end

D#m C#

Still, I’d give all my self-respect up to be with you again
