Intro
C – C/B – F – – –
Verse 1
C – C/B – F – – – x4
Coming out of my cage and I've been doing just fine
Gotta, gotta be down, because I want it all
It started out with a kiss, how did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Now I'm falling asleep and she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke and she's taking a drag
Now they're going to bed and my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head, but she's touching his
Pre-Chorus 1
Am – G – F – – – x2
Chest now, he takes off her
Dress now, let me go
And I just can't look, it's killing me
They're taking control
Chorus 1
C – F – Am – G – x4
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies, choking on your alibis
But it's just the price I pay, destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes, 'cause I'm Mr. Brightside
Break 1
C – Fadd9 – Am – G – x2

C – C/B – F – – –
I'm coming out of my cage and I've been doing just fine
