(Verse)
(A)
We had our hearts tricked, we had it all worked out
(D)
We had the bad years planned in advance
(A)
We had our hearts tricked, we'd worked it out
(D)
But then it all fell apart so fast
(A)
We watched the wires trip, the power surged
(D)
We had it ripped right out of our hands
(A)
It took her hostage, and wore her down
(D)
We made a wish that no one could grant
(e)
and now we're huddled here,
(D)
naked sore and cold, it's been severe
on “severe” play this:

(repeat the same pattern of “A,” “D,” and “e” for the next verse)
she had her heart tricked
she had it all worked out
she had her bad years planned in advance
he had his heart tricked
they had it all worked out
that they had years left of happy romance
but then all the needles
and damage done
in the end just lessened the chance
they had their hearts tricked
the power surged
they had it ripped right out of their hands
and now we're huddled here naked sore and alone
and we can't see clear
(Chorus)
(A) (E) (F#) (D)
just the thought of this is sickening
(A) (E) (F#) (D)
to live out all our years without you here
(A) (E) (F#) (D)
just the thought of this is sickening
(A) (E) (F#) (D) (e) (f#) (a)
just the thought of this is sickening
we had our hearts tricked
we had it all worked out
we had the bad years planned in advance
she had our hearts tricked
but the power surged
and she was ripped right out of our hands
all in advance
