Hurt Me
Capo 1
Intro
C F C F (Repeated several times)

    Am                 C                            F 
Oh love is that a vulture don't tell me it's a vulture 
                Am
standing beside you.
           C                        F
And do you see your own face in his eyes?
                         Am
Do you see him like I do? Oh

         C                            F
It used to be that when you said you believed it
                   Am
I would believe it too
           C                               F
It used to be that when you said you were leaving
                   F
I'd want to follow you
 F                                          
But never where the dogs bark, never where the dogs bark
    F                C F           F
and I remember, praying at the dinner table
    F                         C              F
For you to come around, maybe pat me on the back when you're able.

Am                                  C
Now I've a dream of you with half a face
                      F
and you take me to a rooftop and skin me
                                Am
Come on, Abel, are you going to skin me?
                 C                       F
And use it as a mask to keep you in the dark
Am        C                  F
When the shadow of the moon won't do
Am            C                 F
'cause on you, the moon is but a pearl
F                                          C                     F
Stolen from your mother's bedside the day you came into the world
F
still now, i can hear the dogs bark, i can hear the dogs bark

F               C      F        F
and i remember, praying at the dinner table
   F                       C               F
for you to come around, maybe pat me on the back when you're able
F                            C     F      F
oh whole cities light up, but nothing can compare to you, baby
    F             C         F
so I stay awake, laying on the dinner table
                    F
waiting for you to hurt me, come on Abel, hurt me, hurt me, hurt me
C                 F
come down to the world

F                                     F
hurt me, come on Abel, cut me, cut me, serve me 'round the table.
      F
and now it's laying on the table
F
waiting for you, on the table
    F                                  C          F
to carve it up and watch the spray go across the river-bed 
     F                               C                          
and sweet aromas fill the halls from all the bodies that came before
    F                   Am
and that's the body, i swear that's the body
F                 C     F        F
i remember, it was laying on the dinner table 
     F                                   C     F
and when you came around, said you'll be doing fine when you're able
   F                         C       F  F
oh whole cities light up but nothing can compare to you, baby
   F                C             F
so I stay waiting, laying on the dinner table.
   F
oh hurt me, hurt me, hurt me
   F
oh cut me, cut me, serve me
