Icon For Hire - Venom (Acoustic Version)

Capo: 2nd fret

[Chorus]
G D
Misery misery is the venom in my brain
G D
Killin’ me killin’ me but I don’t feel the pain
G D
Running from something that I can’t really explain
G D
Misery misery is the venom in our veins

[Verse]
C Am
It’s been kind of cold, feeling all alone
G D
Haven’t been myself in quite a while you know
C Am
They’re not in my head like everybody said
G D
Cautionary tale I quit the second spread

[Pre-Chorus]
G
Don’t meet their eyes it’s hypnotic
D
Make you forget that it’s toxic
C
Caught up in all the chaotic
Am
Sold you a lie and you bought it
G
Before you know it, you’re nauseous
D
Hands down your throat ’til you vomit
C
Collapse from all the exhaustion
Am
And now they got what they wanted

[Chorus]
G D
Misery misery is the venom in my brain
G D
Killin’ me killin’ me but I don’t feel the pain
G D
Running from something that I can’t really explain
G D
Misery misery is the venom in our veins

C Am
Show me where it hurts, I’ll show you how it works
G D
They prey on your fear of how it just gets worse
C Am
I can’t tell if it’s real, though, don’t know if it’s lethal
G D
Did we drink the poison or just a placebo?

[Pre-Chorus]
G
Don’t meet their eyes it’s hypnotic
D
Make you forget that it’s toxic
C
Caught up in all the chaotic
Am
Sold you a lie and you bought it
G
Before you know it, you’re nauseous
D
Hands down your throat ’til you vomit
C
Collapse from all the exhaustion
Am
And now they got what they wanted

[Chorus]
G D
Misery misery is the venom in my brain
G D
Killin’ me killin’ me but I don’t feel the pain
G D
Running from something that I can’t really explain
G D
Misery misery is the venom in our veins

[Bridge]
F Am
Watch your step, or you’re gonna fall apart
C Am
Hold yourself, together inside the dark
F Am
Don’t look down, you won’t get far
C Am
You’re only as strong as you think you are

G D
Running from something that I can’t really explain

G D
Misery misery is the venom in our veins
