[Chorus]
Bm             A          D             Em
Aah-ah-ah-aah, ah-ah-aah, ha-ah-ahh-ha, ahh-ha
Bm             A          D             Em
Aah-ah-ah-aah, ah-ah-aah, ha-ah-ahh-ha, ahh-ha
 
[Verse 1]
Bm
Chew me up then spit me out
A
Then leave me lyin' on the ground
D                       Em
A low blow even for you
Bm
Paranoid, you're in my head
A
You're in my blood and when I'm dead
D                                   Em
You'll probably dig my grave up too
 
[Pre-Chorus]
D                   Em
My stupid heart was in your hands
Bm                    Bb
You used me like your cigarettes
D                               Em
Then you stomped me out in your checkered Vans
      Bm                      Bb
Damn, what the hell happened?
                     D                  Em
I'll say I should've known, I should've known better
     Bm                   Bm
That you're a backstabber
                     D
But how could I have known
                 Em                          Bm
Behind your grey coat your words are made of daggers
                        Bb
And cherry lip smacker, smacker
 
[Chorus]
Bm             A          D             Em
Aah-ah-ah-aah, ah-ah-aah, ha-ah-ahh-ha, ahh-ha
Bm             A          D             Em
Aah-ah-ah-aah, ah-ah-aah, ha-ah-ahh-ha, ahh-ha
 
[Verse 2]
 
Bm
I'm just gonna hold my breathe
       A
'Cause all you do is make me sick
    D                      Em
You even ruined air for me
           Bm
You ruined parking lots and movie snacks
    A
And photo booths, imagine that
B                                      Em
I guess no more souvenirs from parties
 
[Pre-Chorus]
D                   Em
My stupid heart was in your hands
Bm                    Bb
You used me like your cigarettes
D                               Em
Then you stomped me out in your checkered Vans
      Bm                      Bb
Damn, what the hell happened?
                     D                  Em
I'll say I should've known, I should've known better
     Bm                   Bm
That you're a backstabber
                     D
But how could I have known
                 Em                          Bm
Behind your grey coat your words are made of daggers
                        Bb
And cherry lip smacker, smacker
 
[Chorus]
Bm             A          D             Em
Aah-ah-ah-aah, ah-ah-aah, ha-ah-ahh-ha, ahh-ha
Bm             A          D             Em
Aah-ah-ah-aah, ah-ah-aah, ha-ah-ahh-ha, ahh-ha
 
[Bridge]
D           Em
I swear you exist just to spite me
Bm                 Bb
I'm your cigarette so gaslight me
D                 Em
In your checkered Vans straight out the 90s
Bm                 N.C.
Really put me out, really put me out, put me
D           Em
I swear you exist just to spite me
Bm                 Bb
I'm your cigarette so gaslight me
D                 Em
In your checkered Vans straight out the 90s
Bm                 Bb
Really put me out, really put me out, put me
 
[Pre-Chorus]
D                   Em
My stupid heart was in your hands
Bm                    Bb
You used me like your cigarettes
D                               Em
Then you stomped me out in your checkered Vans
      Bm                      Bb
Damn, what the hell happened?
                     D                  Em
I'll say I should've known, I should've known better
     Bm                   Bm
That you're a backstabber
                     D
But how could I have known
                 Em                          Bm
Behind your grey coat your words are made of daggers
                        Bb
And cherry lip smacker, smacker
 
[Chorus]
Bm             A          D             Em
Aah-ah-ah-aah, ah-ah-aah, ha-ah-ahh-ha, ahh-ha
Bm             A          D             Em
Aah-ah-ah-aah, ah-ah-aah, ha-ah-ahh-ha, ahh-ha
              Chew me up then spit me out
Then leave me lyin' on the ground
A low-blow even for you
Paranoid, you're in my head
You're in my blood and when I'm dead
You'll probably dig my grave up too

My stupid heart was in your hands
You used me like your cigarettes
Then you stomped me out in your checkered Vans
Damn, what the hell happened?

I'd say I should've known, I should've known better
That you're a backstabber
But how could I have known?
Behind your grey coat your words were made of daggers
And cherry lip smacker, lip smacker (mwah)

I'm just gonna hold my breath
'Cause all you do is make me sick
You even ruined air for me
You ruined parking lots and movie snacks
And photo booths, imagine that
I guess no more souvenirs from parties

My stupid heart was in your hands
You used me like your cigarettes
Then you stomped me out in your checkered Vans
Damn, what the hell happened?

I'd say I should've known, I should've known better
That you're a backstabber
But how could I have known?
Behind your grey coat your words were made of daggers
And cherry lip smacker, lip smacker (mwah)

I swear you exist just to spite me
I'm your cigarette, so gaslight me
In your checkered Vans straight out the 90s
Really put me out, really put me out, put me

I swear you exist just to spite me
I'm your cigarette, so gaslight me
In your checkered Vans straight out the 90s
Really put me out, really put me out, put me

My stupid heart was in your hands
You used me like your cigarettes
Then you stomped me out in your checkered Vans
Damn, what the hell happened?

I'd say I should've known, I should've known better
That you're a backstabber
But how could I have known?
Behind your grey coat your words were made of daggers
And cherry lip smacker
