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

Oh baby, baby please
I feel an urgent need to apologize
I did a terrible thing in a terrible dream
And now I can't look you in the eye
It started:

And you turned to say,
\"I gotta tell you something odd
I know I said we'd get married
But I'm already married\"
And that's when you laughed so hard

Woke up in a shock
Nails digging blood from the base of my palms
Because people are so fickle

So really I could lose you just as quickly as I've gotten you
And that's the kind of thought that makes me nervous
And worried if you'll really think I'm worth it
When the rush wears off and you're left with this busted person
But if you tell me you will I will do wht I can to believe it
So baby all the things that I've seen
Last night while asleep
This morning, they're messing with me
And now I'm anxious as hell
And looking for help
Something pleasant and painless
