[Intro]
C C/B  F

[Verse 1]
C                 C/B
Coming out of my cage
                          F  
And I've been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all
C                     C/B 
It started out with a kiss
                         F  
How did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss
It was only a kiss
C                 C/B 
Now I'm falling asleep
                     F 
And she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke
And she's taking the drag
C                    C/B
Now they're going to bed
                   F  
And my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head
But she's touching his

[Pre-Chorus]
 Am      
Сhest now
                   G      
He takes off her dress now
       F 
Let me go
Am               
I just can't look
      G        
It's killing me
     F            
And taking control

[Chorus]
C       
Jealousy
F               Am         
Turning saints into the sea
G                      C       
Swimming through sick lullabies
F               Am    
Choking on your alibis
G                  C         
But it's just the price I pay
F          Am        
Destiny is calling me
G          C     Fmaj7
Open up my eager eyes
Am               G       
‘Cause I'm Mr. Brightside
