Emery - Playing With Fire Acoustic

Dm , C , G , A# 4x’s

Dm
pardon me for saying so , but you look more pitiful
G
than i had ever imagined , despite perfect fashion
Dm
and your photographs depict you so differently .
G
i always thought you would be some sort of match for me .

Dm C G A#
so let’s decide who can survive
Dm C G A#
stomping feet and racing beats of hearts that don’t ever slow .
Dm C G A# Dm C
then i’ll write letters on white paper expressing ,
G A#
my deep dissapointment .

Dm G Dm
dripping where i stand from my watery hands , hoping to get past the open bedroom door ,
G Gm
where her clothes on the floor remind me of our conversation ,
C Gm
the feeling of slight hesitation
F C
to turn out the light .

Dm G
fourteen days now since we started to complicate the situation .
Dm G
i’m not hiding i’m just buying some time for us to find the back door .
Dm C A# F
we will come out when it’s safe for us .
A# F
when it’s safe for us . .
A# F Dm G , Dm , G
when it’s safe for us

Dm C A# F
there’s nothing left to say to excuse the way that i’ve behaved .
C Dm
i still feel him gripping like a stain
C A# F
to fabric , torn at every seam ,
A Dm
then thrown away

A# C Dm A# C
why should i take all the blame for my mistakes? you were there with every
Dm
promise made to break .
A# C Dm
when did you become the one without regret?
A# C
kill me burn me down
Dm
i swear i won’t forget .
A# C Dm
when did you become the one without regret?
A# C
kill me burn me down
