Butch Walker - The Taste Of Red Chords

[Intro]

C


[Verse]

       C             Cmaj7
Well I tripped and I fell
       C7             F
Into a hole I know so well
      Dm
And I don't think I'll be
G             C
Leaving for a while

         C               Cmaj7
And this lump beneath my skin
       C7             F
Is the home I let you in
       Dm           
All it took was just your
G                 C
Red lipped biting smile


[Chorus]

    A
And damn damn damn I love you
         Amaj7
Like the stars that shine above you
          A7
Light the ground that you're laying on
      D                        G
While looking up at me

C (during fill)


[Verse]

         C                 Cmaj7
Slurring thoughts 'til they bled
        C7                F
Cause I love the taste of red
           Dm
And you're stuck inside me
G               C
Like a splinter does

        C             Cmaj7
Drawing words on your back
         C7              F
Spelling you're my heart attack
           Dm         G               C
Cause your naked body glistens in the sun


[Chorus]

    A
And damn damn damn I love you
         Amaj7
Like the stars that shine above you
          A7
Light the ground that your laying on
      D
While looking up at me

    A
And oh good god I need this
       Amaj7
Just a chance to show your weakness
         A7
So I get caught inside of your kiss
         D
And just leave you on your knees


[Solo]

[Chorus]

Light the ground that your laying on
      D
While looking up at me

    A
And oh good god I need this
       Amaj7
Just a chance to show your weakness
         A7
So I get caught inside of your kiss
         D
And just leave you on your knees
