G                                               C
I tried to tell you why you should listen to my song
G                                                             C
You told me that you heard me and that you'd learn to use the phone
D                        C
I told that I was really scared, I may not last
D                          C
I said I was desperate and emergency was comin' fast

G                                 C
Do you really wanna let me be the desperate one
G                                 C
Do you really wanna let me be the desperate one
G                                 C
Do you really wanna let me be the desperate one
G                                 C

G                                                     C
I waited for the blood you promised me that you would let
G                                          C
In my soul I prayed that you would never forget
D                        C
You said to sign my life away to your command
D                            C
And now I can't describe how little I understand

G                                 C
Do you really wanna let me be the desperate one
G                                 C
Do you really wanna let me be the desperate one
G                                 C
Do you really wanna let me be the desperate one
G                                 C             D   C
Do you really wanna let me be the desperate one

I thought you were my friend
