You’re like a junk email in my inbox
G2
You keep coming back, keep coming back
G
You’re like a constant ringing in my ears oh
G2
You keep calling back, why are you calling back again?
G
You’re like a train that’s running out of steam oh
G2
You’re losing track, should’ve stopped way back
G
You’re with a new girl now, she’s only 16
G2
Hanging from a string, I hear her heart smash
Am C
So tell your girlfriend you used to be my boyfriend
G D
Used to be my boyfriend, how would she like that?
Am C
She doesn’t know about all the things you done then?
G D Am
All the things you’ve said? Just to try and get me back
C G D
But you had your chance
G G2
Peroxide, on your heart
Em D
It’s burning, it’s falling apart
G G2
Peroxide, on my heart
Em D
It’s turning light from the dark
G G2
Peroxide, in your eyes
Em D
It’s burning, burning your heart
G G2
Peroxide, as you ask why
Em D
You ask why it all fell apart
G
She’s one beautiful rose in a thorn field
G2
She doesn’t know, that you’re among those
G
You can only give so much until you take
G2
Take yourself back and leave the pain
Am C

Bridge
G G2
Let it burn ‘cos it’s your turn
Em D
To feel something now
G G2
Peroxide on your heart

It’s burning, it’s falling apart
G G2
Peroxide, on my heart
Em D
It’s turning light from the dye
G G2
Peroxide, in your eyes
Em D
It’s burning, burning your heart
G G2
Peroxide, you ask why
Em D
You ask why it all fell apart
