Intro
Am G F E  x2

Verse 1
Am                                   G
"Come on in, boy," said the skeletons sitting by her closet door
F                               E
  Dirty secrets, empty memories, and broken hearts across the floor
Am
  I was knocked out, heels over head
G                           
  So you dragged me by my feet
F
  To a ghost town, where you buried me
E
  No wonder no one heard my screams
Am                        G
Love's so alive, but it died in its sleep
    F
And now that it's dead, I live in your head and
* E
  I will haunt your fucking dreams

Chorus
Am                           G                          F
  No one will love you like I did, will treat you like I did
          E
So go on, wear that scarlet letter
Am                           G                          F
  No one will love you like I did, will touch you like I did
             E
So good luck finding something better

Verse 2
Am                                   G
  Run away, boy, if you couldn't tell, baby's got a thirst for blood
F                                  E
  A subtle system, wicked melodies, craving bullets from her gun
Am                                     G
  So entranced they, follow every word, little spirals in their eyes
F                             E
  Catch a lover, turn an enemy just to watch them burn alive

Chorus
Am                           G                          F
  No one will love you like I did, will treat you like I did
          E
So go on, wear that scarlet letter
Am                           G                          F
  No one will love you like I did, will touch you like I did
             E
So good luck finding something better

Bridge
Am                  G                         F
    Someday you may find that picture perfect guy
         E                          Am
And I'll chase my words with poison
                 G                            F
Until that day arrives, and swine take to the sky,
          E
Fill your void with open thighs so,


Chorus
* Am                           G                          F
    No one will love you like I did, will treat you like I did
          E
So go on, wear that scarlet letter
Am                           G                          F
  No one will love you like I did, will touch you like I did
             E
So good luck finding something better

Am                           G                          F
  No one will love you like I did, will treat you like I did
          E
So go on, wear that scarlet letter
Am                           G                         F
  No one will love you like I did, will fuck you like I did
             E                         * Am
So good luck finding something better
