You leapt from crumbling bridges watching cityscapes turn to dust
           F                          Dm                Am      C
Filming helicopters crashing in the ocean from way above

Verse:
   F                            Dm                       Am    C
Kisses on the foreheads of the lovers wrapped in your arms

You’ve been hiding them in hollowed out pianos left in the dark…

Got the music in you baby,

Tell me why...

Gm7                            Fmaj7
Your lips, my lips, apocalypse
Gm7                            Fmaj7
Your lips, my lips, apocalypse
        Bb                                    Gm                 F
Go and sneak us through the rivers, flood is rising up on your knees
       Dm
Oh please…
  Gm7
Come out and haunt me I know you want me
  C
Come out and haunt me...

    F                                Dm                      Am    C
Sharing all your secrets with each other since you were kids
           F                               Dm                           Am    C
Sleeping soundly with the locket that she gave you clutched in your fist…

Chorus:
         Bb
Got the music in you baby,
         F
Tell me why...
         Bb
Got the music in you baby,
         Dm
Tell me why...
              Bb                             C                     F C
