MARINA AND THE DIAMONDS – I’m A Ruin chords and lyrics.
This song is from the album Froot(2015) released on April 06, 2015.
I loved the production of this song, especially the rhythm. The snare has got that bite to it that makes it really nice to listen to. The performance by her is also interesting. The bass could have been improved, because it feels a little uninteresting in certain parts. The lyrics are great and she sings it with such passion and emotion. Hats off to the producer for such an amazing track.

[VERSE]
Fm Eb
I know that I can't have it all
Bbm C#
But without you I am afraid I'll fall
Fm Eb
I know I'm playing with your heart
Bbm C#
And I could treat you better but I'm not that smart
Fm Eb
When it comes to love, you're an easy fight
Bbm C#
A flower in a gun, a bird in flight
Fm Eb
It isn't fair and it isn't right
Bbm C#
To lead you on like it's all alright

I played with your heart

Fm Eb Bbm C#
It's difficult to move on when nothing was right and nothing's wrong
Fm Eb
You still can't look me in the eye
Bbm C#
Cause you've been bitten once and now you're twice as shy
Fm Eb
I've had my share of beautiful men
Bbm C#
But I'm still young and I want to love again
Fm Eb
It's difficult to say goodbye
Bbm C#
And easier to live a lover's lie

[PRE-CHORUS]
C# Eb Fm C#
And I've tried to say
C# Eb Fm C#
Babe, I'm gonna ruin you if you let me stay

It doesn't feel right and it doesn't feel fair
Fm Eb
When I'm planning to move on and you're still standing there
Bbm C# Fm Eb
Don't wanna keep a secret but I don't know how to keep it fair, yeah

[CHORUS]
Eb C# Fm Bbm
I'll ruin, yeah I'll ruin you
Eb C# Fm Bbm
I've been doing things I shouldn't do
C# Fm Eb
But I don't wanna say goodbye
