Verses
======
Guitars 1 + 2
Clean tone, w/ delay and reverb (both guitars) (using my gibson les paul with standard
I found playing with the neck pickup selected brought the closest tone to Trapt.) Guitar
plays the following during the whole verse in both verses. Guitar two switches to a
overdrive midway through, and I just lay back on the volume and stay in the neck
and let the delay do its thing.

Guitar 2 (overdrive pt.) I tabbed it out for what you would play when the delay is added.
Both guitars at the end of the

I was sick of restrictions, sick of the boundaries, about to close the door
Such a lack of conviction, no real connection, what should I settle for

But you caught my attention, you built on the tension, and you left me wanting more
Now I don't know what to do with myself, do with myself, I don't want nobody else

You're so contagious Hangin’ onto every word
You're so contagious and now I know for sure there is no cure
Verse2
I saw your intentions I gave you
permission Go ahead and start the war
I was out of addictions by my own
admission oh I've been keeping score
but you made an exception you taught me a lesson
Who cares where I've been before
You would never leave me all by myself, all by
myself you don't want nobody else
Bridge
Chorus
I am burning in your fire (there is no cure)
I have only one desire (there is no cure)
(I can not deny her)
Now I don't know what to do with myself, do
with myself (there is no cure)
Now I don't know what to do with myself, do with
myself I don't want nobody else
Bridge
Chorus
You keep running, you keep running, you keep
running through my veins [x4]
(You're so contagious, there is no cure, you're so contagious)
