F#                                  C# 
I was almost outta here nearly this time 
D#m       D#m/C#  F#                                    C# 
I saw you in my   rear view mirror and I pulled up on a dime 
D#m                  F# 
But nothing ventured nothing lost 
F#                      C# 
You can't say we didn't try  
D#m     D#m/C#     F#                                  C# 
That is unless you weighed the costs of every tear we cried 
F#                        D#m9  D#m 
Why do we do this to each other 
C#                            B  C#   F# 
I guess we were always poison lovers 
F# 
If you could look me in the eyes 
                     C# 
And tell me what you see 
D#m    D#m/C#     F#                            C# 
Maybe you can     tell me why I let you torture me 
  D#m            F#                                       C# 
I know that your lips are soft and they sing the sweetest songs 
D#m           D#m/C#    F# 
But I've been listening long enough 
                       C# 
My heart has turned to stone  
F#                        D#m9 D#m 
Why do we do this to each other 
C#                            B  C#   F# 
I guess we were always poison lovers 
 
SOLO 
 
F# 
And Another time another place 
                C#    D#m    D#m/C#     F# 
Another wind to blame cover  every      track and trace 
                       C#  
I'll find you just the same  
    D#m         F# 
And even if we made our peace 
                      C# 
And went our separate ways 
D#m               F# 
You'd go west and I'd go east 
                           C# 
And we'd meet here in this place 
F#                         D#m9 D#m 
Why do we do this to each other 
C#                            B  C# 
I guess we were always poison lovers 
F#                         D#m9  D#m 
Why do we do this to each other 
C#                            B  C#    F# 
I guess we were always poison lovers
