Chorus
     A (let ring)
And all I can say...

        D                  Bm                      G
Is that love is a terrible art, it's a hook in the heart

                     Em D2  A 
That can drag you on broken glass,

           D                          Bm                             G
And as you protest the shards in your flesh, the hook tears out your chest

                    Em D2  A              Bm (with stops, listen to the song) 
Until you're just a broken mess


(Verse riff 2) x2

(Chorus)

    G            A                D
But he has mercy on her lover and does not bleed him dry,

  G             D                        A
A credit to his self control, if it were me, that monster would probably die...


(Chorus x2 with alternate words, same chords)
