Em           D              A
Stitched you up, put you together
With cotton and feather
Em        D                    A
Gave you love, put my heart inside you
Oh what could I do
          Em
When you started talking in your sleep
 D
Saying things you'd do to me
A
I didn't care
I wasn't scared
         Em
Now I'm finding knives under the sheets
  D
Crumbled photographs of me
A
I'm in despair
Should I be scared?

Chorus:
 G                       A
Teddy bear, you were my teddy bear
          Bm
You were comforting and quiet
                        A
How did love become so violent?
      G                      G
Oh, teddy bear, you were my teddy bear
Bm                                          A
Everything was so sweet until you tried to kill me

I threw you out, I didn't outgrow you
I just didn't know you
But now you're back
It’s so terrifying how you paralyze me

Now you're showing up inside my home
Breathing deep into the phone
I’m so unprepared
I’m fucking scared

Chorus:
Teddy bear, you were my teddy bear
You were comforting and quiet
How did love become so violent?
Teddy bear, you were my teddy bear
Everything was so sweet until you tried to kill me

I'm fucking scared

Chorus:
Teddy bear, you were my teddy bear
You were comforting and quiet
How did love become so violent?
Teddy bear, you were my teddy bear
Everything was so sweet until you tried to kill me
