[C#]
[F#]
[A#m]
I'm coming out of my cage and I've been [F#] feeling just fine
God had got me down because I [C#] wanted it all
It started out with [Cm] a kiss, how did it end up [F#] like this?
It was only a kiss, [A#m] it was only a kiss
Now I fall asleep and she's calling [F#] a cab
While he's having a smoke and she's taking [C#] a crack
In the door in the back and [Cm] my stomach [F#] is sick
And it's all in my head but she's [A#m] touching his chest
Now he [D#] takes [C#] off her dress, now let me [F#]
go
[A#m]
I just can't hold it, [C#] it's killing me
[F#] And it's taking control
[C#]
[F#] Jealousy, pouring sex [A#m] into the sea
[G#] It's within reach [C#] and you're all alive
[F#] Choking on [A#m] your love, [G#] it's just [C#] a surprise
I'll pay [F#] for your destiny's [A#m]
harm
[G#] Open up [C#] my ether, [F#] [A#m] cause I'll miss [G#] you for life's [C#] time
I'm [F#] [C#]
[G#] [C#]
[F#] [A#m]
[G#] [C#]
coming out of my cage and I've been feeling just [F#] fine
God had got me down because I wanted [A#m] it all
It started out with a kiss, how did it end [F#] up like this?
It was only a [A#m] kiss, it was only a [F#] kiss
Now I fall asleep and she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke and she's taking [A#m] a crack
In the door in the back and [Cm] my stomach [F#] is sick
And it's all in my head but she's [A#m] touching his chest
Now he [D#] takes [C#] off her dress, now let me [F#]
go
[A#m]
I just can't hold [D#m] it, [C#] it's killing me
[F#] And it's taking control
Oh yes, oh no
[C#]
[F#] Jealousy, pouring sex [A#m] into the sea
[G#] It's within reach [C#] and you're all alive
[F#] Choking on [A#m] your love, [G#] it's just [C#] a surprise
I'll pay [F#] for your destiny's [A#m]
harm
[G#] Open up [C#] my ether, [F#] [A#m] cause I'll miss you [G#] for life's [C#] time
[F#] [C#]
When I'm near the shore, [A#m]
[G#] [C#] I'll miss you more
[F#] [A#m]
[C#] I'll never, [F#] [A#m]
[C#] I'll never
