VERSE 1:
    C/F  F     C/F       F           F/Bb Bb6     C7/Bb  (var2)  
The blue flame burns the bottle when it falls too far.
C/F  F   C/F      F        Bbmaj7 (var3)
I'm left thinking out loud in the dark.
      C/F     F            C/F      F            F/Bb Bb6  F/Bb Bb6 (var1)
Am I good for you? Are you good for me? Well the truth is
      C/F   F        C/F   F             F/Bb  Bb6
On a trampoline on a trampoline when you fall off it sucks to walk again.

VERSE 2:
Just like the candle I can fall into bottles.
Far away from anyone who can hurt me.
Are we even now are you even now that you know me?
Are you leaving now without paying me what you owe me?


CHORUS:
Amaj
(Shut up and...) 
Cmaj             Bbmaj            Fmaj      Amaj
Dance you little creep.. tomorrow I will be there.
Cmaj             Bbmaj              Fmaj         Amaj
Shoot it at your feet you'll follow Yeah I'll be care - ful.
Gmin             C            Amin                 Dmin
Dance you little creep you're not a lot a lot like me.
              Gmin             C           Amaj            Bbmaj 
I'll make you dance you little freak. I'll show you what I mean for once
       Bbmin
You'll get a chance.
F        G                 Gmin      Bbmaj Cmaj  (to verse chords)
Maybe to explain but don't talk It's over when I say.

VERSE 3:
Well the truth is I could buy all the candles in the world
And melt them into so many bottles.
Will they ever learn? No they'll never learn what the truth is.
Like you'll never know will you ever know what you're doin'?


CHORUS

song ends on Fmaj7#11
