Rhythm Bruises

G  Em  G  Em  C  A  D

[Verse 1]
G                Em
I can't find the rhythm
G                     Em
But I got the marks to show
G                  Em
Right where the tambourine hits
G                   Em
The soft flesh of my leg.
C                    A                         D
Makes it hard to sit down so I dance the night away.

[Chorus]
G                Em      G               Em
Got these rhythm bruises, how my skin diffuses
C                  A              D
The purple and blue remind me of you yeah
G               Em       G              Em
Got these rhythm bruises, just one more contusion
C                 A                  D
The purple and blue bring me back to you.

[Verse 2]
G               Em
In the night awaken
G               Em
The small of my front aching
C                          A                D
'Cause that's where your body connected to me.
G                 Em
And now I got the beat back
G                   Em
I can feel it on the right track
C                    A                         D
You walked out the door before leaving me to bleed.

[Chorus]
G               Em       G               Em
Got these rhythm bruises, how my skin diffuses
C                   A                D
Oh the purple and blue remind me of you.
G                 Em     G           Em
Got these rhythm bruises, optical illusion yeah
C                 A                  D
The purple and blue they help me see you yeah

[Outro]
G                     D#
Don't let the rhythm stop
G                       D#
Won't let you bruise my heart
C                       A7
You know what you've done,
                   D
You've done it all before.
G                  D#
Don't let the rhythm stop,
G                       D#
I won't let you bruise my heart.
C                    A7                 D
You walked out the door you left me to bleed.
G                  D#
Don't let the rhythm stop,
G                         D#
I won't let you bruise my heart
C  A7  D
