• E

Intro/Verse 
NOTE: A bass guitar playing a E-Ab-A-A progression in a 3-5 pattern sounds good overlaid with this

Pre-Chorus 
NOTE: I like to use the powerchord-like A's for this, but the standard A works fine too

Verse: 

E                
Who's more desperate? You're on your knees boo 
E/A                                 E 
But when you fuck up, I don't leave you 
                E/A 
I can't leave you 
E 
Guess you're permanent, can't be removed 
E/A                                           E 
Each time my heart breaks, it's like a new tattoo 
                    E/A 
Don't need a new tattoo 

PreChorus: 

Dbm 
One touch always makes me 
A 
Too hard to escape 
Dbm 
Three strikes, I'm still yours 
A 
What am I waiting for? 

 
                    E 
I'm running out of room 
            E/A 
For your tattoos 
               Dbm 
How can I get over you, over you 
             B 
When you're all over me 
                      E 
So don't tell me it's cool 
              E/A 
That I'm tattooed 
               Dbm 
How can I get over you, over you 
             B 
When you're all over me, yeah yeah 


Why do we stay 
When only fools would? 
I guess we're both fools 
'Cause the sex is good, it's way too good 

Call us crazy, misunderstood 
'Cause I can't leave you 
And I know I should 
People say I should 

One touch always makes me 
Too hard to escape 
Three strikes, I'm still yours 
What am I waiting for? 

I'm running out of room 
For your tattoos 
How can I get over you, over you 
When you're all over me 
So don't tell me it's cool 
That I'm tattooed 
How can I get over you, over you 
When you're all over me, yeah yeah 

Bridge: 

Dbm 
Permanently trying to hide  
      A 
The scars we can't remove 
        Dbm                                B 
You're drawn on me and I'm still drawn to you 

I'm running out of room 
For your tattoos 
How can I get over you, over you 
When you're all over me 
So don't tell me it's cool 
That I'm tattooed 
How can I get over you, over you 
When you're all over me
