G,E,C x2
Oh baby, baby [G]please
I feel an urgent [E]need to apolo[C]gize
I did a terrible [G]thing in a terrible [E]dream
And now I can't [C]look you in the eye
It started:
We were [G]out on a date
When you t[E]urned to say,
"[C]I gotta tell you something odd
I know I [G]said we'd get married
But I'm [E]already married"
And t[C]hat's when you laughed so hard
So I turned and [E]swung
Woke up in a [Bm]shock
Nails digging [C]blood from the base of my [D]palms
Because [C]people are so [D]fickle
They f[G]all in love at different [E]angles
So really I [C]could lose you just as [G]quickly as I've g[D]otten you
And that's the kind of [C]thought that makes me [D]nervous
And worried if you'll [G]really think I'm w[E]orth it
When the [C]rush wears off and you're [D]left with this busted [G]person[E]
But if [C]you tell me you will I will [D]do what I can to [G]believe it[E]
G,E,C x2
So baby all the [G]things that I've seen
Last [E]night while asleep
This mo[C]rning, they're messing with me
And now I'm [G]anxious as hell
And [E]looking for help
Something [C]pleasant and painless
Some story to tell
With a [G]throughline of calm
That could [Bm]stop me from being [D]myself
'Cause all I think is how I [C]wanna be your [D]fever
Just to [G]know I make you [E]heated
'Cause I [C]worry you might see [G]me more like a [D]blanket
Who's there for [C]comfort and for [D]cover
From the [G]glare of former [E]lovers
[C] [D] [G]
All that[E] passion that kissed you and bit you 'til you were devoured
And I'd [C]like to get better 'cause [D]thinking like this is [G]torture[E]
G,E,C x2 D
And if I can't stop it you'll get [C]sick of bearing [G]crosses
And you'll [Dsus4(add9)]jump to cut your [E]losses
You'll go get [C]quarantined somewhere far from [G]me
Where it's [D]much less dangerous
But maybe if I [C]wake up and quit d[D]reaming
I can [G]shake and shit I'm f[E]earing
And I can [C]realize I'm just freaking [D]out for no good [E]reason[G]
I'll tell you what:
[C] [D]
If that'[E]s a line I can cross, once I get there, I'm not ever leaving
[C] [G]
[Bm] [Dsus(add9)]
