Verse: BbmDb Gb I wanna be alone Bbm Db Gb Alone with you, does that make sense? Bbm Db Gb I wanna steal your soul Bbm Db Gb And hide you in my treasure chest Verse: Bbm Db Gb I don't know what to do Bbm Db Gb To do with your kiss on my neck Bbm Db Gb I don't know what feels true Bbm Db Gb But this feels right so stay a sec Bbm Db Gb Yeah, you feel right so stay a sec Chorus: F7 Gb And let me crawl inside your veins F7 Gb I'll build a wall, give you a ball and chain Ebm It's not like me to be so mean Gb You're all I wanted Ebm Gb Just let me hold you Bbm Db Gb Bbm Db Gb like a hostage Verse: Bbm Db Gb Gold on your fingertips Bbm Db Gb Fingertips against my cheek Bbm Db Gb Gold leaf across your lips Bbm Db Gb Kiss me until I can't speak Verse: Bbm Db Gb Gold chain beneath your shirt Bbm Db Gb The shirt that you let me wear home Bbm Db Gb Gold's fake and real love hurts Bbm Db Gb And nothing hurts when I'm alone Bbm Db Gb When you're with me and we're alone Chorus: F7 Gb And let me crawl inside your veins F7 Gb I'll build a wall, give you a ball and chain Ebm It's not like me to be so mean Gb You're all I wanted Ebm Gb Just let me hold you Ebm Gb Hold you Bbm Db Gb Like a hostage Bbm Db Gb Like a hostage Outro -x2-: Bbm Db Gb

Please do not ask for strumming patterns. Sharing online how to literally play a song (i.e. strumming, rhythm and tempo) is not allowed by the MPA (Music Publishers Association) because of copyright issues.
Carefully listen to the song and try to really "feel" the rhythm. Once you get the basics of strumming, I can assure you it'll go real quick. Maybe the strumming guide can help you on your way.

Not exactly sure how to do the “like a hostage” part. I know the chords but not when to strum or not.
I personally play it like this:
am – DDUD
c – DDU
f – D
how do i do the “like a hostage” part???
I do it twice down on A and once down on C and F. Hope that helps.
if u pluck back and forth the bottom two strings. (switch to bottom and second to top for chorus) it sounds really good thats what i do,, no worry ab strumming pattern
Down… down up (and keep on doing it)
You should totally put “My Boy” On here. It’s also by Billie. :)
much much better in -2
Just single down strums
I find that if you do lose strums down, it sound really good
Life would be so much easier if you could include the strumming pattern
It’s just one strum for each I’m pretty sure
I just strum downwards and use DDU, UDU for the outro and stuff. I don’t know if that’s actually right though
I do it too! It sounds good… so 🤷🏻♀️😂
what is the strumming pattern?
I just do DU, but that probably isn’t the way you are supposed to. It sounds okay to me, though.
loveeeee :,)
I love this song so much. 0 definitely worked the best for me and I could sing along to it very easily. And it sounds more like the song.
