Emma Alkaline Trio
Emma appeared li[G]ke an angel
[C]Emma fell like rain[D]
[G]Into my lap like a heart attack,[C] like lightning from her [D]name
[G]I'm running dry of bad excuses
D[C]on't want to lie or seem [D]intrusive
Bu[G]t time hasn't told me anyth[C]ing, and neither has sh[D]e
A poin[Em]settia in poison[C] rain
Traded true lov[G]e for insult and in[D]jury
We washed i[Em]t down the drain wit[C]h one silver b[G]ullet and two [D]vicodin[G]
With two vicodin
Emma woke up in darkness, suitcase already packed
Note on the bedstand signed in blood, "Sincerely, never coming back."
A nightmare on my street the day she arrived
A nightmarish household in which she died, because it made her feel at home
Somehow made me feel at home
A poinsettia in poison rain
Traded true love for insult and injury
We washed it down the drain with one wooden stake through the heart and two vicodin
A poinsettia in poison rain
Traded true love for insult and injury
We washed it down the drain with one silver bullet and two vicodin
We watched the sun fall crown on a city that sleeps in a world upside down
A slow ticket straight out of town
You went out with a bang when you took with you all my dreams underground
With you all my dreams underground
