I Know I Could

[Verse]

      C
Well, I feel stained and I’m in pieces
Dm                                F
In my mouth the sad taste of the past
                   C
A thousand wasted kisses
     C
So another glass, and a cigarette
     Dm                             F
Just anything, to help forget the things that
                        C
Every day I still find missing


[Pre-Chorus]

Dm                             F
   Oh, let the whole world crash down on me
Dm                       F       G
   And let the curtains rise


[Chorus]

         C               G
I could do so much harm
         F
I could do you no good
               C                  G
I’ll leave a stain in your heart
    F
I would
                 C                G
Yeah, I could mess up your life
              F
And make you forever blue
                C
’Cause I could hurt you
    G      F
I know I could

I know I could

[Verse]

C
The misty haze and the final rest
      Dm
They say the first shall be the last
     F
But not for me
                C
’Cause I don’t believe it
     C
So another glass, and a cigarette
      Dm                            F
Just anything, to help forget the things that
                        C
Every day I still find missing


[Pre-Chorus]

Dm                             F
   Oh, let the whole world crash down on me
Dm                       F       G
   And let the curtains rise


[Chorus]

         C               G
I could do so much harm
             F
And I could do you no good
               C                  G
I’ll leave a stain in your heart
    F
I would
                 C                 G
Yeah, I’m gonna mess up your life
              F
And make you forever blue
                C
’Cause I could hurt you
    G     F
I know I could

I know I could

Yeah I could do you no good

I’ll leave a stain in your heart
