[INTRO]
G
Love's checkered past
Em C
Is littered with violent acts
G
And the blood that fills kindless paths
Dadd9 C
Each drop drawn in her name.

G
In this modern age
Em C
The image of father has changed
G
But if you're ready I'm willing to wage a gut-wrenched war
Dadd9 C
For a minute of your time


G
I'm done playing stone paper scissors
Em C
Gonna take that stone and bring them all down with it
G
Steal some scissors and cut some throats
Em C
Put pen to paper and write you a note
G
I won't get in line
Dsus2 C
I will not wait for this.
G
With my bare hands I kill
Dsus2 C
Just to be candlelit
with you.

[INTRO]

I have no checkered past
And I've never been a violent man
Maybe you've changed all that
Each scar I carve is in your name
So let the suitors come
I can see them off one by one
Open every last artery up
Just for a second of your time.

[not yet 100% on the interlude... please comment if your figure it out before me]

I'm done playing stone paper scissors
Gonna take that stone and bring them all down with it.
Steal those scissors and cut some throats
Put pen to paper and write you a note
I won't get in line
I will not wait for this
With my bare hands I kill
Just for the privilege

Look at the blood bath
Look at the mess I have made
With my bare hands I kill
Just to be candlelit with you.
