[Opening]
There’s [E]a dark room inside of [C]my head [G]
Developing [E]images I’d rather [C]forget [G]
You [E]laced your tongue with [C]poison [G]
And it makes me [A]remember [G]
[verse 2]
Every [E]night I look at my [C]window [G]
[E]Afraid you might return for [C]more [G]
I [E]miss your frozen love too much
And I’d [Am]overdose from [G]just a touch [C]
[chorus]
Baby don’t come [E]back, [Am]oh, whatever you [C]do
Don’t come [Em]back [G]for [C]me, [Am]after all I’ve bled for [C]you
I can [Em]hardly [G] [C]breathe
And [Am]one more [C]kiss could take my [E]life
[verse 3]
There’s a [E]fire inside of my [C]bed [G]
Made of [E]calls that I deeply [C]regret [G]
[E]Oh, you left me [C]burning [G]with the [C]embers
And I [A]barely made it out [G]alive
[chorus]
Baby don’t come [E]back, [Am]oh, whatever you [C]do
Don’t come [Em]back [G]for [C]me, [Am]after all I’ve bled for [C]you
I can [Em]hardly [G] [C]breathe
And [Am]one more [C]kiss could take my [E]life
[Closing]
Oh, you’re back inside my [C]dreams, broken bones and empty [G]screams
Sleepless nights in [D]burning sheets [Em]
Lightning strikes inside my [C]eyes
Tell me is this love a [G]lie, tell me now or set me [D]free
[chorus]
[Am]Oh, whatever you [C]do, don’t come [Em]back [G]for [C]me
[Am]After all I’ve bled for [C]you, I can [Em]hardly [G][C]breathe
And [Am]one more [C]kiss, could take my [Em]life
