Verse:
        Ebm               Db
I can't wait to see your brilliant face
B                            Bb
Light up the room around the pillowcase
           Ebm                    Db
She said, "Can you come over to my LA place
B                                  Bb
I got something to tell you and it just can't wait"
         Ebm                  Db
When I showed up you held the door in tears
B                          Bb
Sat on the couch under the chandeliers.
                Ebm               Db
You said you're having a baby and before I could cry
B                                Bb
You're leaving me just when I thought you were mine.

Pre-chorus:
B                     Bb
But I don't see your face,
                          B
Taken by the one hearted race home now,
                           Bb
But, don't tell your other man, I got a hell of a plan

Chorus:
Ebm                       B
Failing lights amass one hundred sleepless nights
                  Gb
And I might be holding on too tight
                Bb
But there is a beast in my heart
                              Ebm (one strum)
And he won't let you leave alive

Verse:
Ebm                   Db
Nightmares no longer wait for sleep
B                                Bb
Crawl on the ground on both your hands and knees
           Ebm                    Db 
Just like a, lion and you're the queen of the pride
    B                                Bb
And we will feast together till the bones are dry.

Pre-chorus:
B                     Bb
But I don't see your face,
                          B
Taken by the one hearted race home now,
                           Bb
But, don't tell your other man, he's not a part of the plan

Chorus:
Ebm                       B
Failing lights amass one hundred sleepless nights
                  Gb
And I might be holding on too tight
                Bb
But there is a beast in my heart
                              Ebm
And he won't let you leave alive

Bridge:
Ebm                        Db
Do you still love me? I am dying to know.
             Gb
Or did you forget what we shared?
         Bb
Out of sight out of mind I was never even there

Chorus:
Ebm                       B
Failing lights amass one hundred sleepless nights
                  Gb
And I might be holding on too tight
                Bb
But there is a beast in my heart
                              Ebm 
And he won't let you leave alive

Outro:
Ebm
This is the price you'll pay
Db
Thoughts in your head that will never die.
B
So don't you forget what we had
Bb
