[Primera Parte]

Am7
 Drowning in the Blue Nile
                    F7M
He sent me Downtown Lights
                      Am7
I hadn't heard it in a while

My boredom's bone deep
                         F7M
This cage was once just fine

Am I allowed to cry?

Am7
 I dream of cracking locks
                        F7M
Throwing my life to the wolves

Or the ocean rocks
                    Am7
Crashing into him tonight, he's a paradox

I'm seeing visions
     F7M
Am I bad or mad or wise?

[Estribillo]

             C7M                      G                F7M
What if he's written mine on my upper thigh only in my mind?
                     C7M
One slip and falling back into the hedge maze
G                   F7M
 Oh, what a way to die
                                 G
I keep recalling things we never did
              C7M
Messy top lip kiss, how I long for our trysts
             F7M
Without ever touching his skin
        G              C7M
How can I be guilty as sin?

[Segunda Parte]

                      F7M
I keep these longings locked
                      Am7
In lowercase inside a vault
                                              F7M
Someone told me: "There's no such thing as bad thoughts

Only your actions talk"
Am7
These fatal fantasies
                       F7M
Giving way to labored breath, taking all of me
                            Am7
We've already done it in my head

If it's make believe
                        F7M
Why does it feel like a vow we'll both uphold somehow?

[Estribillo]

              C7M                      G                F7M
What if he's written mine on my upper thigh only in my mind?
                     C7M
One slip and falling back into the hedge maze
G                   F7M
 Oh, what a way to die
F7M
 My bedsheets are ablaze
                    G
I screamed his name
                 C7M
Building up like waves crashing over my grave
             F7M
Without ever touching his skin
                       C7M
How can I be guilty as sin?

[Puente]

        G                     F7M
What if I roll the stone away?
                                C7M
They're gonna crucify me anyway
                    G                          F7M
What if the way you hold me is actually what's holy?
                     F7M                   G
If long suffering propriety is what they want from me
           C7M                           Am7
They don't know how you've haunted me so stunningly
         F7M           G
I choose you and me, religiously

[Estribillo]

                                                        F7M
 What if he's written mine on my upper thigh only in my mind?
                     C7M
One slip and falling back into the hedge maze
G                   F7M
 Oh, what a way to die
                                G
I keep recalling things we never did
              C7M
Messy top lip kiss, how I long for our trysts
             F7M
Without ever touching his skin
        G              C7M
How can I be guilty as sin?

[Final]

G                    F7M
 He sent me Downtown Lights
                       C7M   G F7M
I hadn't heard it in a while
G
 Am I allowed to cry?
