                             Am           D 
Knew you were trouble, but I stayed (whoa-oh-oh-oh) 
Em 
I had to have you every night 
                          C 
Held onto you just like a vice 
                          Am    D 
So I could feel you in my veins 
Em 
Oh, I kept findin' myself comin' 
                      C 
Back, comin' back for more 
         D 
I had to cut you cold

     G 
This drug that I call you 
        Am                              C            D

               Em                                   G 
Cause when the nights keep gettin' colder, I need a little, hit of you 
           Am                C           D          Em

Em                            G 
Oh, what's the harm in just a taste? 
                              Am 
It always starts the same old way 
                            C 
Need just a hit and I'll be fine 
         D 
And then I'll be on my 
Em 
Way like I don't need that 
G                           Am 
Like I ain't some old sorry fiend 
                              C            D
