  G                               Am He broke in my heart and took my gold
G                              Am And after all that I've been told
C                       Am Horror stories that I read
C                            Am While mom was putting me to bed

G                       Am  I put a lock on every door
G                            Am He wants to get inside I'm sure
C                           Am He's only there to mess around
C                       Am Be the talking of the town
 

D        Cadd9                    G A thief, burning my whole world down
D        Cadd9                      G A thief, turning my whole world around

 
G                          Am I know I've failed every test
G                                Am He knew which button he could press
C                              Am My heart it beats out of my chest
C                        Am It's never getting any rest
 
G                           Am Didn't want him to see me cry
G                        Am But every word became a lie
C                     Am Only he can read my mind
C                            Am His every touch is like a crime

 
D        Cadd9                    G A thief, burning my whole world down
D        Cadd9                      G A thief, turning my whole world around

 
Am                    Em Tell me what am I to do 
              Am Better watch her
                     Em Tell me who to talk too 
              Am Talk to a doctor
                            Em I really wanna quit loving you 
              E It won't matter
                         F So why am I talking you in 
                  G To letting you still break in

 
D        Cadd9                    G A thief, burning my whole world down
D        Cadd9                      G A thief, turning my whole world around

D        Cadd9                    G A thief, burning my whole world down
D        Cadd9                      G A thief, turning my whole world around
