(Intro.)
|(C) / / / |(C) / / / |

(Verse 1)
(C)I am someone who until (C/E)recent events
You shared your (F)secrets with
And your lo-(G)cation, you forgot to turn it (C)off
(C) And so I watch as (C/E)you walk into some bar called The (F)Black Dog
And pierce new holes in (G)my heart
You forgot to turn it (Am)off (G)
And it (F)hits me, I (Am)just don't (G)under-(F)stand

(Chorus)
How you don't (C)miss me in The (G)Black Dog
When (C/E)someone plays The (F)Starting Line
And you (C)jump up but she's (G)too young
To know (C/E)this song that was (F)intertwined
In the (C)magic fabric (G)of our (C/E)dreaming (F)
(C)Old ha-(G)bits die (C/E)scream-(F)-(C)ing / / / |(C) / /

(Verse 2)
I (C)move through the world with a heart (C/E)broken                    C
My longings stay un-(F)spoken
And I may never (G)open up the way I did for (C)you
And (C)all of those best laid (C/E)plans, you said I needed a (F)brave man
Then proceeded to (G)play him until (Am)I believed it (G)too
And it (F)kills me, I (Am)just don't (G)under-(F)stand

(Chorus)
How you don't(C)miss me in the (G)shower
And re-(C/E)member how my (F)rain soaked body was (C)shaking
Do you (G)hate me? Was it (C/E)hazing for a (F)cruel fraternity?
(C)I pledged, and (G)I still mean (C/E) it (F)
 C     G        C/E   F
(C)Old ha-(G)bits die (C/E)scream-(F)-ing

(Bridge)
(Am) Six weeks of (F)breathing clean air, I still miss the (C)smoke
Were you (G)making fun of me with some esoteric (Am)joke?
Now I (F)wanna sell my house and set (C)fire to all my clothes
And hire a (G)priest to come and exorcise my (F) demons (G)
Even if I die (C)screaming (G) (C/E) (F) (C) (G) (C/E) (F)
And I hope you (C) hear (G) (C/E) (F) it (C) (G) (C/E) (F)

(Chorus
And I hope it's (C)s**tty in The (G)Black Dog
 When (C/E)someone plays The (F)Starting Line
And you (C)jump up but she's (G)too young
To know (C/E)this song that was (F)intertwined
In the (C)tragic fabric (G)of our (C/E)dream-(F)ing
'Cause (C)tail between your (G)legs, you're (C/E)leaving (F)

(Outro.)
(C)I still (G)can't be-(C/E)lieve it (F)
'Cause (C)old ha-(G)bits die (C/E)scream-(F)-ing - - - - -
