G G/B C Em  
G  

[Verse 1]
G  
I wanna carve you up  
Bm  
Til I'm stone  
C  
I'd write a book with all the reasons I could call you my own  
Em  
But I won't  
D       C  
Cause you're unavailable  

G  
I wanna save myself  
Bm  
I'm unwell  
C  
I'd rather take another bottle off the top of the shelf  
Em  
Than get help  
D              C  
Cause you're no good for my health  

[Chorus]
Bm C  
I wish I knew how to quit ya  
Bm C                                      D  
You were never mine but I was always  
Bm  
yours  

Bm C  
I wish I knew how to quit ya  
G  
But I'm addicted to you more and more  

[Verse 2]
G  
When I put you on  
Bm  
The counter  
C  
Of my tiny place in Brooklyn and we kissed  
Em  
Like there was nothing to lose  
D               C  
Did you feel what I did too?  

G  
Oh you're in my DNA  
Bm  
So much exchanged  
C  
At least I know when you're away there'll always be a part of you that  
Em  
stayed  
D          C  
You're the echo in my veins  

[Chorus]
Bm C  
I wish I knew how to quit ya  
Bm C                                      D  
You were never mine but I was always  
Bm  
yours  

Bm C  
I wish I knew how to quit ya  
G  
But I'm addicted to you more and more  

[Bridge]
Bm  
I love you while I sleep  
C  
Then I wake up alone  
Em            D  
I live inside a house  
C  
Without you it's not home  

G                    Bm  
They don't know what it's like  
C  
To live and never know  
Em                   D  
If the one they're shooting for is ever  
C  
gonna show  

[Chorus]
Bm C  
I wish I knew how to quit ya  
Bm C                                      D  
You were never mine but I was always  
Bm  
yours  

Bm C  
I wish I knew how to quit ya  
But I'm addicted to you more and more  

Bm C  
I wish I knew how to quit ya  
Bm C                                      D  
You were never mine but I was always  
Bm  
yours  

Bm C  
I wish I knew how to quit ya  
G  
But I'm addicted to you more and more
