^Bm7 Drowning in the Blue Nile He sent me "Downtown ^Gmaj7Lights" I hadn't heard it in a ^Bm7while

My boredom was bone deep

This cage was once just f^Gmaj7ine Am I allowed to cry? ^Bm7I dream of cracking locks Throwing my life to the ^Gmaj7wolves Or the ocean rocks crashing into him to^Bm7night

He's a paradox, I'm seeing visions,

Am I ^Gmaj7bad or mad or wise?

[Chorus]

What if he's ^Dmaj7written "mine" on my upper ^Athigh Only in my ^Gmaj7mind? One slip and falling ^Dmaj7back into the hedge maze ^A Oh, what a way to d^Gmaj7ie I keep recalling things we never ^Adid Messy top lip ^Dmaj7kiss, how I long for our trysts Without ever ^Gmaj7touching his skin How can ^AI

N.C.

be guilty as ^Bm7sin

[Verse 2]

I keep these longings ^Gmaj7locked In lowercase inside a ^Bm7vault Someone told me there's no such things as bad ^Gmaj7thoughts

Only your actions talk

^Bm7These fatal fantasies Giving way to labored b^Gmaj7reath, taking all of me We've already done it in my ^Bm7head If it's make believe, why does it feel like a ^Gmaj7vow we'll both uphold somehow?

[Chorus]

What if he's ^Dmaj7written "mine" on my upper ^Athigh Only in my ^Gmaj7mind? One slip and falling ^Dmaj7back into the hedge maze ^A Oh, what a way to d^Gmaj7ie My bedsheets are ablaze, I've screamed his ^Aname Building up like ^Dmaj7waves crashing over my grave Without ever ^Gmaj7touching his skin How can

N.C.

I be guilty as ^Dmaj7sin

[Bridge]

What if ^AI roll the stone away?^Gmaj7 They're gonna crucify me anyway ^Dmaj7 What if the way you ^Ahold me Is actually what's ^Gmaj7holy?

N.C.

If long-suffering pro^Gmaj7piety is what they wa^Ant from me They don't ^Dmaj7know how you've haunted me so ^Bm7stunningly I choose ^Gmaj7you and me, re^Aligiously

N.C.

[Chorus]

N.C.

What if he's written "mine" on my upper thigh Only in my ^Gmaj7mind? One slip and falling ^Dmaj7back into the hedge maze ^A Oh, what a way to d^Gmaj7ie I keep recalling things we never ^Adid Messy top lip ^Dmaj7kiss, how I long for our trysts Without ever ^Gmaj7touching his skin How can ^AI

N.C.

be guilty as ^Dmaj7sin

[Outro]

^A He sent me Downtown ^Gmaj7Lights I hadn't heard it in a ^Dmaj7while ^A ^Gmaj7 ^A Am I allowed to cry?
