This Could Be Love  Alkaline Trio

This is a acoustic version of Alkaline Trio's "This Could Be Love".
You can play the standard chords but I would suggest to add a high B & E note
(string 5 & 6)to every chord (exept for the F#m). Play the chords like this:
C#m (x46600)
Aadd9 (002200)
F#m (2442xx)
B (x24400)
E (024400)
Feel free to comment or correct! Have fun!

[C#m] [C#m] [Aadd9] [F#m]  
Chorus:
[C#m]I've got a book of matches
[Aadd9]I've got a [F#m]can of kerosene
[C#m]I've got some bad ideas [Aadd9]involving [F#m]you and me
[C#m]I don't blame you for walking away
I to[Aadd9]uched myself had [F#m]thoughts of flames
I [C#m]shat the bed and laid there in it
T[Aadd9]hinking of you [F#m]wide awake for d[C#m]ays[Aadd9]
[F#m]Wide awake for days
Intro:
[C#m] [C#m] [Aadd9] [F#m]  
Verse:
[C#m]And I found you tongue-tied [Aadd9]in my twis[F#m]ted little brain
[C#m]You couldn't crack a smile
[Aadd9]I didn't c[F#m]atch your name
[C#m]I don't blame you for walking away
I'd [Aadd9]do the same if I[F#m] saw me
I[C#m] swear it's not contagious
In four short [Aadd9]steps we can e[B]rase this
Chorus:
[E]Step one, slit my throat
Step [Aadd9]two, play in my bl[B]ood
Step [E]three,cover me in dirty sheets
and run [Aadd9]laughing out of the [B]house
Step f[E]our, stop off at Edgebrook Creek and r[Add9]inse your crimson [B]hands
Yo[Aadd9]u took me hostage and ma[B]de your demands
[Add9]I couldn't meet them so you cut[B] off my fingers, one by one
Intro:
[C#m] [C#m] [Aadd9] [F#m]  
Verse: C#m Aadd9 F#m (3x)
C#m Aadd9 B (1x)
I'm like a broken record
I've got a needle scratching me
It injects the poison of alcohol I.V.
I don't blame you for walking away
I'd do the same if I saw me
I swear it's not contagious
I swear to God it's not contagious
Chorus:
[E]Step one, slit my throat
Step [Aadd9]two, play in my bl[B]ood
Step [E]three,cover me in dirty sheets
and run [Aadd9]laughing out of the [B]house
Step f[E]our, stop off at Edgebrook Creek and r[Add9]inse your crimson [B]hands
