Am  C  F  C



[Verse 1]
 
Am              C         

I wanna see you fight for the hell of it

F                             C

Pulling out your knife in the street light

            Am                       C    

Shining, so dull on the glitter that flickers like lightning

F                             C

Bouncing off the back of your blade



[Verse 2]

Am               C  

I wanna see some blood on your fingernails

F                          C

Clawing at the club lines, vanity

          Am                        C  

There's a pretty face in there, too smart for her own good

       F                       C

You're bound to put her in her place



[Chorus 1]

           Em                     Am     

And on the short ride home, we'll k-hole in the taxi

        F                     C

I don't wanna feel a thing at all

          Em                          

I've been losing all my lovers

   Am                    F        C

Is this what you wanted, Madeleine?



[Verse 3]

Am                 C 

I wanna get fucked up like a holiday

F                             C

Spending half my night in the pouring rain

            Am                  C 

Oh, I wanna numb my fingers and numb my brain

      F                      C

Til I can't feel anything at all



[Verse 4]

Am                C 

I wanna stay this drunk, wanna celebrate

F                        C 

Moving bar to bar like a slow parade

            Am                      C 

Oh, I wanna ride like lightning and crash like thunder

       F                      C 

Riding down the tracks in our veins



[Chorus 2]

           Em                    Am       

I got that sick, sick feeling to hurt somebody

        F                                   C

Babe, I think there's something wrong in my brain

          Em                         

I've been losing all my lovers

   Am                    F        C

Is this what you wanted, Madeleine?

[Outro]

        Em                          Am     

And the sun has been out since I've been coming down

             F                   C

I don't know how much more I can take

          Em                     Am     

I've been lost, I've been found, asleep on the couch

     F                        C

Just waiting for the light to fade

        Em                     Am     

And I'm trying to work out our wandering doubt

    F                      C

Oh, loving you is hard somedays

          Em                         

I've been losing all my lovers 

   Am                    F        C

Is this what you wanted, Madeleine?

          Em                         

I've been losing all my lovers 

   Am                    F        C
