G             C                       G 
I've been lonely, missing your body 
Em            C                                       D 
You've been out of touch, you're so far away 
G                     Em                        D 
Wishing you would tell me you're sorry 
Am                          G                          Em 
And you know you made a big mistake 
 
Close my eyes and try to forget you 
C                                                  Am 
Every time I do, I just see your face 
 
And after all this shit that we've been through 
D 
Why are you so willing to walk away? 
G                                                               C 
I don't know why I stick around to watch you burn our bridges down 
Am     
I can't help it that I need you 
D 
I can't help it that I need you 
G                                                  C 
Now I'm drowning underneath the water that was under me 
Am     
I'm still screaming that I need you 
C                  G 
(I can't help it that I need you) 
Em                    G           C                                            Am 
Burn the bridges, burn them down, down, down, down, down 
Am                                                            D 
Burn the bridges, burn them down, down, down, down, down, down 
G             C                          G 
You left me with a craving I can't fill 
Em            C                                       D 
Got me wondering what I had yesterday 
G                     Em                        D 
Tell everyone I'm fine, but I'm still 
Am                          G                          Em 
Sitting here, choking on the aftertaste 
C                                                   Am 
Can't stay away from you, I try, I try 
D 
But you got a grip on my mind 
G                                                               C 
I don't know why I stick around to watch you burn our bridges down 
Am     
I can't help it that I need you 
D 
I can't help it that I need you 
G                                                  C 
Now I'm drowning underneath the water that was under me 
Am 
I'm still screaming that I need you  
C                  G 
I can't help it that I need you 
Em                    G           C                                            Am 
Burn the bridges, burn them down, down, down, down, down 
Am                                                            D 
Burn the bridges, burn them down, down, down, down, down, down 
C                                                   Am 
Can't stay away from you, I try, I try 
D 
But you got a grip on my mind 
G                                                  C 
Now I'm drowning underneath the water that was under me 
Am 
I'm still screaming that I need you 
D 
(I can't help it that I need you) 
G                          Em                 C 
Burn the bridges, burn them down 
G                          Em                 C 
Burn the bridges, burn them down 
Em                    G           C                                            Am 
Burn the bridges, burn them down, down, down, down, down 
Am                                                            D 
Burn the bridges, burn them down, down, down, down, down, down
