remove these ads
Verse:
Am      C  F
I wanna be alone
Am                   C         F
Alone with you, does that make sense?
Am      C          F
I wanna steal your soul
    Am             C        F
And hide you in my treasure chest

Verse:
Am           C       F
I don't know what to do
   Am                C     F
To do with your kiss on my neck
Am           C          F
I don't know what feels true
    Am                  C      F
But this feels right so stay a sec
      Am                C      F
Yeah, you feel right so stay a sec

Chorus:
           E7                F
And let me crawl inside your veins
             E7                        F
I'll build a wall, give you a ball and chain

              Dm
It's not like me to be so mean
             F
You're all I wanted
            Dm   F
Just let me hold you
       Am C F Am C F
like a hostage

Verse:
Am           C     F
Gold on your fingertips
Am         C          F
Fingertips against my cheek
Am         C          F
Gold leaf across your lips
Am            C       F
Kiss me until I can't speak

Verse:
Am           C          F
Gold chain beneath your shirt
    Am                 C       F
The shirt that you let me wear home
Am              C         F
Gold's fake and real love hurts
    Am                 C   F
And nothing hurts when I'm alone
     Am                 C     F
When you're with me and we're alone

Chorus:
           E7                F
And let me crawl inside your veins
             E7                        F
I'll build a wall, give you a ball and chain
              Dm
It's not like me to be so mean
             F
You're all I wanted
            Dm   F
Just let me hold you
Dm   F
Hold you
       Am C F
Like a hostage
       Am C F 
Like a hostage

Panic at the Avacodo Ferret Disco Muahahahahahaha

Yowza these are the exact chords. Just what I needed to serenade my depression.

Ahaha…People think I’m kidding

Virgil

Thanks! Sounds EXACTLY right at 0 and is really easy. Personally, instead of F on the very last “hold you”, I play E7. The actual song is just down on each chord once, no strumming pattern required. The “like a hostage” part is played just like the verses ((Am for 2 beats, C for 1 beat, F for 1 beat, rest for 3 beats)).

egianicos123

the E7 in this is so nice omg

Avie

These were really good chords for me.. it sounds better with my voice too, which really helps! Thank you so much! ☺️♥️

BillieEilishisyummyasf1234

i do single downstrums until the chorus then i do dduudu

BillieEilishFan200

When I do “like a hostage” I kind of pick the strings and I do G, C, A. It sounds a little bit like the guitar in the actual song

Ali

Very good ! I use d,ddud for the strumming!

Brook Reinhardt

This sounded so close to the original it completely calmed my anxiety. I also found that if you use a plucking pattern of 1 3 2 4 it sound soo cool.

Darlene

What I do is go down 2 times on the Am then go with the C once and the same with the F.

Meg Fidgetz

I think that this even sounds good with single strums. I live the E7, and it fits perfectly with my voice
