The Needle Lies Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Dm]"I've had enough and I
want out!"
"You can't walk away
[C]now"[Dm]

[Interlude 1]
[Dm][E5][Dm][E5]

[Verse 2]
[Dm]I looked back once
And all I saw was his [F]face
Smil[Dm]ing, [C]the needle cry[Dm]ing
Walking out of his room
With mirrors,
afraid [F]I heard him s[C]cream
You'll [Dm]never get away

[Interlude 2]
[Dm][F][E5][Dm][F][E5]

[Verse 3]
[Dm]Cold and shaking
I crawled down alleys to [F]try
And scrape away the [C5]tracks
[C]that marked me
[Dm]Slammed my face into
walls of concrete
[F]I stared, amazed at the [C]words
written on [Dm]the wall

[Verse 4]
[C](Don't ever trust)
Don't ever trust the [Bb]needle,
[C]it [G]lies[Dm]
[C](Don't ever trust)
Don't ever trust the [Bb]needle when it [G]cries

[Interlude 3]
Cries your name
[Dm][C][A5][A][A5][Am]
[F][G][A5][E][A5]
[F][G][E][Em][G]
[E][Em][G][Em][G][E][E5][G][A5]
[E][E5][Em][G][F][G][Dm][E5][Dm]
[F][E5]

[Verse 5]
[Dm]Wet and raving
The needle keeps calling me [F]back
To bloody my [C]hands forever
[Dm]Carved my cure with the blade
That left me in scars
[F]Now every time I'm wea[C]k
Words scream from my [Dm]arm

[Verse 6]
[C](Don't ever trust)
Don't ever trust the [Bb]needle,
[C]it lie[G]s[Dm]
[C](Don't ever trust)
Don't ever trust the [Bb]needle [A5]when it [G]cries
Cries your [A]name
[G](Don't ever trust)
Don't ever trust the [F]needle,
it [Dm]lies
(Don't ever [A]trust)
Don't ever [G]trust the [F]needle when [Dm]it cries
[E]Cries[G][E]
[E]you[G]r[E][E]
[G]name
[E][G][E]
