[Verse 1]
C                   C/B
  Coming out of my cage   
                          F
And I've been doing just fine  
                 
Gotta gotta be down 
                   
Because I want it all 
C                       C/B
  It started out with a kiss
                         F 
How did it end up like this? 
              
It was only a kiss    
                
It was only a kiss
C                   C/B
  Now I'm falling asleep
                     F
And she's calling a cab  
                    
While he's having a smoke   
                 
And she's taking the drag 
C                      C/B
  Now they're going to bed
                   F
And my stomach is sick    
              
And it's all in my head 
                  
But she's touching his 


[Pre-Chorus]
 Am
Сhest now 
                   G
He takes off her dress now
       F
Let me go
Am            
  I just can't look
      G
It's killing me
     F
And taking control 


[Chorus]
C
Jealousy
F               Am
Turning saints into the sea
G                      C
Swimming through sick lullabies
F               Am
Choking on your alibis
G                  C
But it's just the price I pay
F          Am
Destiny is calling me
G          C     Fmaj7
Open up my eager eyes
Am                  G       
   ‘Cause I'm Mr. Brightside
