[Intro]
E A

[Verse 1]
E A
You said being alive is a type of terminal illness
E A
But you called me in tears when Alexander McQueen died
E A
You were the person who helped me finally get checked into rehab
E A
But you drink five martinis and tell me you are good to drive

[Pre-Chorus]
F#m A E B
You were less than a lover, more than a friend
F#m A B
Like a codependent mother with Munchausen

[Chorus]
E B F#m A
Losing you was painful and messy like
E B F#m A
Pulling a tooth out with a string
E B F#m A
And I can still taste the blood in my mouth
E B F#m
When I bite down on anything

[Verse 2]
E A
I got food poisoning three times when you made us dinner
E A
But I loved you so I ate your cooking anyway
E A
And we were both healing from similar childhood trauma
E A
But I think you liked me better when I wasn't doing okay

[Pre-Chorus]
F#m A E B
You were more than a friend, less than a lover
F#m A E
You were more significant than any other

[Chorus]
E B F#m A
Losing you was painful and messy like
E B F#m A
Pulling a tooth out with a string
E B F#m A
And I can still taste the blood in my mouth
E B F#m
When I bite down on anything

[Bridge]
E B F#m A
And I hate what it did to my smile
E B F#m
I hate what it did to my smile
