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
         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 sh*t 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   Dsus4(add9)
