[Intro]
G C x4

[Verse 1]
G                         C/G
Watching TV tired, bleeding on the bed
     G                             C/G
The milk has just expired, all the leaves are dead
         G                                C/G
I’m not quiet, you’ve been quiet — just receiving what you said
G                                 C/G
Reeling, feeding, feeling filled by everything you fed
   G                                 C/G
I see you as you see yourself through all the books you read
G                             C/G
Overwhelmed with guilt and realizing the disease

[Chorus]
G                        C/G
You give me chills, I’ve had it with the drills
     G                               C/G
I’m nothing, you are nothing, we are nothing with the pills
    G                      C/G
I’m empty till she fills, alive until she kills
        G               C/G
In her vampire empire, I am
    G     C/G
Falling, yeah
    G     C/G
Falling, yeah

[Verse 2]
   G                     C/G
I see you there rejecting all your earthly power
    G                                C/G
Protecting and dissecting till you’ve emptied every hour
    G                          C/G
We jump into the pond, then we come under the shower
     G                        C/G
You lay upon my pillow and you open like a flower
   G                         C/G
I wanted to see you naked, I wanted to hear you scream
G                         C/G
Wanted to kiss your skin and your everything
   G                         C/G
I wanted to be your woman, I wanted to be your man
   G                          C/G
I wanted to be the one that you could understand

[Chorus]
G                        C/G
You give me chills, I’ve had it with the drills
     G                               C/G
I’m nothing, you are nothing, we are nothing with the pills
    G                      C/G
I’m empty till she fills, alive until she kills
        G               C/G
In her vampire empire, I am
    G     C/G
Falling, yeah
    G     C/G
Falling, yeah

[Bridge]
G  C/G
Oh, oh
G  C/G
Oh, oh
G  C/G
Oh, oh
G  C/G
Oh, ah

[Verse 3]
           N.C.                            N.C.
Well, I’ve walked into your dagger for the last time
           N.C.                       N.C.
It’s like trying to start a fire with matches in the snow
      N.C.                             N.C.
Where you can’t seem to hold me, can’t seem to let me go
     N.C.                       N.C.
So I can’t find surrender and I can’t keep control
     G                              C/G
You turn me inside out and then you want the outside in
      G                         C/G
You spin me all around, then you ask me not to spin
     G                      C/G
You say you want to be alone and you want children
     G                    C/G
You wanna be with me, you wanna be with him

[Chorus]
G                        C/G
You give me chills, I’ve had it with the drills
     G                               C/G
I’m nothing, you are nothing, we are nothing with the pills
    G                      C/G
I’m empty till she fills, alive until she kills
        G               C/G
In her vampire empire, I am
    G     C/G
Falling, yeah
    G     C/G
Falling, yeah
    G     C/G
Falling, yeah
    G     C/G
Falling, yeah
    G     C/G
Falling, yeah
    G     C/G
Falling, yeah
