[C#]
Well it rains and it pours when you're out on your own
If [A] I crash on the couch can I sleep in [G] my clothes?
Cause I spent the [G#] night dancing I'm drunk I suppose
If [A#] it looks like the right thing I'm really just [C#] asking to leave
This alone you're in time for the show You're the one that I [A] need
I'm the one that you loathe You [F#] can watch me corrode
Like a beast in repose Cause I love all the boys
And [A] I wave with the boys in the band Whoever I [B] am
[G#] I'm better at [C#m] it than those [A] So why don't you love me?
[G#] I'm just there for you
Give me a shot [C#] to remember
If you could take [A] off a blade away from me
If [G#m] you said I [F#] should surrender
So as long as [G#] I'm pretending this to be
It's [F#] a part [C#] of the empire
So right beside [A] me if you say you'd rather stand free
You [G#] know we're [F#] both just vampires
You'd [G#] rather stand right next to me
[F#]
[C#] There's a place in the dark where the animals go
You [A] can take off your skin in the cannibal glow
[F#] Juliet loves the beat and the lusty commands
Drop [C#m] the dagger and lather the blood on your hands [A] Romeo
I'm really [B] bad
[G#] I'm better at [C#m] it than those [A] So why don't you love me?
[G#] I'm just there for you
Give me a shot [C#] to remember
If you could take [A] off a blade away from me
If [G#] you said I [F#] should surrender
So as long as [G#] I'm pretending this to be
It's a part [F#]
[C#] of the empire
So right beside [A] me if you say you'd rather stand free
You know we're both [F#] just vampires
