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
