Tom: B

B E C# F# B E C# F#

[Verse 1]
           B              E          C#
There’s a Swiss Army Knife inside my ukulele case
F#      B       E      C#
Just in case shit goes down
F#         B        E           C#       F#
And I will place my teeth just above my tongue
           B          E          C#
And I will try not to make a sound

[Chorus]
F#           B
And there is blood in my sink
E       C#          F#
There’s blood in my sink
      B       E        C#
Right where I spat it up
F#           B
And there is blood in my sink
E       C#          F#
There’s blood in my sink
             B        E          C#m  F#
It’s telling me I shouldn’t give up
    E            B        G#m  F#
The flowers that you gave me
         E B      G#m  F#
They’re poisonous
     E           B        G#m F#
The flowers that you gave me
         E B G#m F#
They’re poisonous

[Verse 2]
        B            E           C#      F#
And the park we said we’d meet at on the swings
           B           E         C#   F#
Well, I’ve burned that swing set down
        B   E              C#            F#
And the guitar you used to write me songs on
  B        E      C#      F#
I threw it at the ground

[Chorus]
             B
And there is blood in my sink
E       C#
There’s blood in my sink
F#    B       E       C#
Right where I spat it up
F#           B
And there is blood in my sink
E       C#
There’s blood in my sink
F#   B            E           C# F#
It’s telling me I didn’t give up
    E            B        G#m F#
The flowers that you gave me
         E B G#m  F#
They’re poisonous
    E            B        G#m F#
The flowers that you gave me
         E B G#m
They’re poisonous

[Instrumental]
F# E B C# E B F#

[Bridge]
          E
And the ivy is wrapping around my throat
         B
And it’s making it harder not to choke
        E
And the ivy is wrapping around my chest
            B           F#
And it’s saying it only wants the best
        E
And the ivy is wrapping around my throat
         B
And it’s making it harder not to choke
        E
And the ivy is wrapping around my chest
         B              F#                 E
And it’s saying it only wants the best for me
                           B
It only wants the best for me
                           E
It only wants the best for me
                           B               F#
It only wants the best for me, for me, for me

[Outro]
 E  B  G#m F#    E B      G#m F#
But you're   so poisonous
    E            B        G#m  F#
The flowers that you gave me
         E B      G#m         F#
They’re poisonous, they’re poisonous
E                B         G#m           F#
The flowers that you gave me (they're poisonous)
         E B        G#m      F#
They’re poisonous  (they're poisonous)
    E            B        G#m             F#
The flowers that you gave me  (they're poisonous)
        E B G#m F#                  E
They’re poisonous   (they're poison)
