[Verse 1]
F        C
 Trust me

It always turns out the same
  G                                
Affection has always been a little 
F
game
F          C
 Forgive me
                      Am
It's one I've never understood
G                             F
Love to me has been as bad as good

[Pre Chorus]
          Dm              C
I've been drowning in the water
                    F
That you're walking on
Fm                  C            
Falling through the air as you 
    Em
float up

[Chorus]
Am
  Hey ya, hey ya

I'll kiss your eyes and wash your 
skin
Am
  Hey ya, hey ya
Am                Dm
Forget myself and let you in
Am
  Hey ya, hey ya
Am                            
Because all I want is that cold 
      Dm
affliction

 Your affection

[Bridge]
Em                    F
  Fall down into sleep
F                     Am
  Into a fevered dream
      Am       F            Dm
Where I barely know what is going on
Em                          F
  Except I know that I want you
F                        Am
  And I know that I need you
      Am                  C       
And I tell you I love you again 
  C         Dm        Dm
and again and again and again
