[Intro]
Dm
 
[Verse 1]
Dm                               A
I'm gonna let my tonsils stay inflamed
    Bb                 C
It feels to nice to finally choke on my own pain
           Dm                                     A
Since your arm's been wrapped around my neck so long
       Bb                     C
Let's separate our baggage, packed mine up and now I'm gone
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm                               A
Let's caress these broken pieces, however sharp they may be
Dm                            A
Let's put blood on this piano, scream in the key of G
Dm                           A
May the words you write about the pain that I cause you
Dm                              A
Be more ever beautiful than if you and I started new
Bb      C
Ooh   oohh
 
 
[Chorus]
F
They tell you that they love
C
The fire in your eyes
Bb               C
Until they get burned
F
They tell you that they love
C
The fire in your eyes
Dm
The fire in your eyes
C                 Dm
The fire in your eyes
Dm
(Ratchet alcoholic)
 
 
[Instrumental]
 Dm
 
 
[Verse 2]
Dm                                     A
Your dusty wings, they flap around my head
    Bb                 C
My cat might eat you, sorry if you end up dead
Dm                            A
I fell from my branch, landed at your feet
(Stop telling people I'm sexist)
 Bb                       C
Worms in my flesh, only cause I'm just that sweet
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm                               A
"Cold, defiant, callous, hoping that you will go away"
Dm                                  A
"Cute, collected, smart-and-simple, the one that got away"
Dm                                  A
Make up your mind, are we fine, or did my flame spread to you?
Dm                                 A                     Bb
Left your heart in San Francisco, you're so cliche, who knew?
Bb                                  C#   C
(Just 'cause I don't wear dresses)
 
 
[Chorus]
F
They tell you that they love
C
The fire in your eyes
Bb               C
Until they get burned
F
They tell you that they love
C
The fire in your eyes
Dm
The fire in your eyes
C                 F
The fire in your eyes
Dm                Bb
(Brightest days, lowest lows)
  C#    C
N.C.
(I can do this)
 
 
[Outro]
F
They tell you that they love
Am
The fire in your eyes
Bb
But I just helped you learn
A            C
At least we didn't die
F
They tell you that they love
C
You say I love you too
Dm
And when we make mistakes
C
We let the blaming ensue
 
F
They always treat you like
C                           Bb                      F   C
You were the first person to ever scream their name
F
They glorify you
      C                    Bb                   A
Like Lady Liberty's Torch, like a moth to the flame
 C
(Stupid little girl)
 
 F                        A                   F
I'm not a flaming torch, I'm not a beacon of light
Bb                                    F
Or hope, or purity, or anything like that
        C
(Damn right you're not)
F
I'm a human being
      C
And contrary to what's been instilled in your little mind
Bb
Human's actually a totally okay thing to be
  F                      C   F
(Whatever, Joyce Manor)
