[Intro]
F F Em Em
Now I lay me down to sleep
Am Am C C
I pray the Lord, my soul to keep
F F Em Em
If I shall die before I wake
Am Am C C
I pray the Lord, my soul to take


[Chorus]
F F Em Em Am Am
I, I keep a record of the wreckage of my life
C C F F
I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind
Em Em Am Am
They talk shit, but I love it every time
C C
And I realize

[Verse 1]
N.C. Am Am
I've tasted blood and it is sweet
C C F F
I've had the rug pulled beneath my feet
Em Em Am Am
I've trusted lies and trusted men
C C N.C. F F
Broke down and put myself back together again
Em Em
Stared in the mirror and punched it to shatters
Am Am C C
Collected the pieces and picked out a dagger
F F Em Em
I've pinched my skin in between my two fingers
N.C.
And wished I could cut some parts off with some scissors


[Pre-Chorus]
F F Em Em
Come on little lady, give us a smile
Am Am C C
No, I ain't got nothin' to smile about
F F Em Em
I got no one to smile for, I waited a while for
Am Am N.C.
A A moment to say I don't owe you a Goddamn thing


[Chorus]
F F Em Em Am Am
I, I keep a record of the wreckage of my life
C C F F
I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind
Em Em Am Am
They talk shit, but I love it every time
C C
And I realize


[Post-Chorus]
F F Em Em Am Am C C
I'm no sweet dream but I'm a hell of a night
F F Em Em Am Am C C
That I'm no sweet dream, but I'm a hell of a night


[Verse 2]
F F Em Em Am Am
No, I won't smile, but I'll show you my teeth
C C F F
And I'ma let you speak if you just let me breathe
Em Em Am Am
I've been polite, but won't be caught dead
C C N.C. F F
Lettin' a man tell me what I should Do in my bed
Em Em
Keep my exes in check in my basement
Am Am C C
'Cause kindness is weakness, or worse, you're complacent
F F Em Em
I could play nice or I could be a bully
N.C.
I'm tired and angry, but somebody should be


[Pre-Chorus]
F F Em Em
Come on little lady, give us a smile
Am Am C C
No, I ain't got nothin' to smile about
F F Em Em
I got no one to smile for, I waited a while for
Am Am N.C.
A A moment to say I don't owe you a Goddamn thing


[Chorus]
F F Em Em Am Am
I, I keep a record of the wreckage of my life
C C F F
I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind
Em Em Am Am
They talk shit, but I love it every time
C C
And I realize
F F Em Em Am Am
I, I keep a record of the wreckage of my life
C C F F
I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind
Em Em Am Am
They talk shit, but I love it every time
C C
And I realize


[Bridge]
F F Em Em Am Am C C
Someone like me can be a real nightmare, completely aware
F F Em Em Am Am C C
But I'd rather be a real nightmare, than die unaware, yeah
F F Em Em Am Am C C
Someone like me can be a real nightmare, completely aware
F F Em Em Am Am N.C.
But I'm glad to be a real nightmare, so save me your prayers


[Chorus]
F F Em Em Am Am
I, I keep a record of the wreckage of my life
C C F F
I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind
Em Em Am Am
They talk shit, but I love it every time
C C
And I realize
F F Em Em Am Am
I, I keep a record of the wreckage of my life
C C F F
I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind
Em Em Am Am
They talk shit, but I love it every time
C C
And I realize


[Post-Chorus]
F F Em Em Am Am C C
I'm no sweet dream but I'm a hell of a night
F F Em Em Am Am C C
That I'm no sweet dream, but I'm a hell of a night
