Chorus 2x3:
STITCHES by Shawn Mendes (KEY)
Needle and the thread
I thought that I've been hurt before
Gotta get you out of my head
But no one's ever left me quite this sore
Needle and the thread
Your words cut deeper than a knife
Gonna wind up dead
Now I need someone to breathe me back to life
Needle and the thread
(Chorus 1)
Gotta get you out of my head get you out of my head
Got a feeling that I'm going under
You watch me bleed until I can't breathe
But I know that I'll make it out alive
I'm shaking falling onto my knees (falling on my knees)
If I quit calling you my lover
And now that
Move on
I'm without your kisses
You watch me bleed until I can't breathe
I'll be needing stitches (and I'll be needing stitches)
I'm shaking falling onto my knees
I'm tripping over myself
And now that
I'm aching begging you to come help (begging
I'm without your kisses
baby please)
I'll be needing stitches
And now that
I'm tripping over myself
I’m without your kisses
I'm aching begging you to come help
I'll be needing stitches (x3)
And now that
I'm ………………………. your kisses
I'll be needing stitches
Just like a moth drawn to a flame
Oh you lured me in I couldn't sense the pain
Your bitter heart cold to the touch
Now I'm gonna reap what I sew
I'm left seeing red on my own
(Chorus 1)
