[Verse]
E
You know that I'd cut my hair
      A          B        E
If I knew that's what you wanted
A lot of people might get scared
        A            B      E
But you still get my engine running

[Pre-Chorus]
F#m           C#m
But baby, I couldn't let you know
               A             E
Because you've still got me hiding
F#m                        C#m
And only you could keep me waiting
                         A
While we're just getting older
                 B
I'm just getting older

[Chorus]
    E
Cuz baby
My will is like a
A    C#m     B
cold-blooded killer
   E
It blasts a hole in my head
    A        C#m      B
And dumps it into the river
A                   E
This is the edge of wearing down
C#m                      B
It always feels like I'm staring out
A                     E
Of someone's body who isn't me
C#m
They keep me locked in
        B
So that I can't speak
A                   E
This is the edge of breaking down
C#m
  This kind of high
       B
Really takes you out
A                     E
It the kind of words I
can't really say
C#m                           B
 It's the kind of person that I
 can't be
