Verse: A#m Drowning in the Blue Nile F# He sent me Downtown Lights C# I hadnʼt heard it in a while A#m My boredom was bone deep F# This cage was once just fine C# allowed to cry? A#m I dream of cracking locks F# Throwing my life to the wolves A#m Or the ocean rocks crashing into him tonight Heʼs a paradox Iʼm seeing visions F# A#m bad or mad or wise? Chorus: C# What if heʼs written "mine" on my upper thigh G# F# Only in my mind? C# One slip, Iʼm falling back into the hedge maze G# F# Oh, what a way to die C# I keep recalling things we never did G# Messy top lip kiss F# How I long for our G# Without ever touching his skin A#m How can I be guilty as sin Verse: A#m F# I keep these longings locked C# A#m In lowercase inside a vault F# Someone told me thereʼs no such things as bad thoughts C# Only your actions talk A#m These fatal fantasies C# Giving way too labored breath Taking all of me A#m Weʼve already done it in my head F# If itʼs make believe, why does it feel like a vow weʼll both uphold somehow? Chorus: C# What if heʼs written "mine" on my upper thigh G# F# Only in my mind? C# One slip, Iʼm falling back into the hedge maze G# F# Oh, what a way to die C# My bedsheets are ablaze, I screamed his name G# F# Building up back waves crashing over my grave G# Without ever touching his skin C# How can I be guilty as sin Bridge: A#m F# What if I roll the stone away? G# Theyʼre gonna crucify me anyway C# A#m What if the way you hold me F# Is actually whatʼs holy C# A#m F# If long-suffering propiety is what they want from me G# C# They donʼt know how youʼve haunted me os stunningly A#m F# I choose you and me, religously Chorus: C# What if heʼs written "mine" on my upper thigh G# F# Only in my mind? C# One slip, Iʼm falling back into the hedge maze G# F# Oh, what a way to die C# I keep recalling things we never did G# Messy top lip kiss F# How I long for our G# Without ever touching his skin C# How can I be guilty as sin Outro: G# F# He sent me downtown lies C# I hadnʼt heard it in a while G# F# allowed to cry?
