A#m            G#               C#   F#
I thought that I’ve been hurt before,
    A#m           G#                 C#   F#
But no one’s ever left me quite this sore.
A#m             G#            C#    F#
Your words cut deeper than a knife.
       A#m             G#                 C#  F#
Now I need someone to breathe me back to life.

F#                     G#
Got a feeling that I’m going under,
A#m                               F#
But I know that I’ll make it out alive.
                   G#         A#m
If I quit calling you my lover,
Move on.

Chorus:
   G#             A#m
     You watch me bleed until I can’t breathe.
   G#             C#
     I’m shaking, falling onto my knees.
   F#             A#m              G#
     And now that I’m without your kisses,
     F#               C#
     I’ll be needing stitches.
         A#m
     I’m tripping over myself,
   G#        C#
     Aching, begging you to come help.
   F#             A#m              G#
     And now that I’m without your kisses,
     F#               C#
     I’ll be needing stitches.

Just like a moth drawn to a flame
Oh, you lured me in I couldn't sense the pain
Your bitter heart, cold to the touch
Now I'm gonna reap what I sow
I'm left seeing red on my own

Got a feeling that I'm going under
But I know that I'll make it out alive
If I quit calling you my lover
Move on

Chorus

A#m
Needle and the thread,
   G#
Gotta get you out of my head.
C#
Needle and the thread,
   F#
Gonna wind up dead.

A#m
Needle and the thread,
   G#
Gotta get you out of my head.
C#
Needle and the thread,
   F#
Gonna wind up dead.

A#m
Needle and the thread,
   G#
Gotta get you out of my head.
C#
Needle and the thread,
   F#
Gonna wind up dead.

A#m
Needle and the thread,
   G#
Gotta get you out of my head,
C#                  G#
Get you out of my head.

Chorus

       A#m
Now that I'm without your kisses
I'll be needing stitches
Now that I'm without your kisses
I'll be needing stitches
