  Bm                            D              G

[Verse 1]
Bm
Pretty, but he don't tell you about it.
D
Winter scarves and skirts of velvet.
G                                        A
We still drink just like we did in school.

              Bm
I passed your old house down by the cemetery.
D
Club nights and university.
G                                      A
When your friends sing 'Born To Run' baby resist, because we were 'Born To Drift'.

[Chorus]
D                                     G
If you could see the wreck I am these days, 
                                Bm
you'd have new reasons to stay away.
                                 G
Just hold my hand for a little while.
     A
Misery never goes out of style.

[Verse 2]
Bm
I see you sometimes in dreams I have,
D
in your bra in the room you used to rent.
G                                           A
Do you ever wish you could wake someone else?

     Bm
So I wrote down a list of coroners,
D
their names, their office phone numbers.
G                                A
To pronounce dead the thing we had.
In tombs, ex-boyfriends bedrooms.

[Bridge] x2
D                                     G
If you could see the wreck I am these days, 
                                Bm
you'd have new reasons to stay away.
                                 G
Just hold my hand for a little while.
     A
Misery never goes out of style.

[Bridge] x2
         Em*          Bm*
I'm your chipped nail paint.
        D*             A* 
I'm the fabric of your coat.
        Em*   Bm*
You are all I fear. 
        D*            A*
You are words I never wrote.

You are years ago.

[Chorus] x2
D                                     G
If you could see the wreck I am these days, 
                                Bm
you'd have new reasons to stay away.
                                 G
Just hold my hand for a little while.
     A
Misery never goes out of style.
