Guilty as sin
Capo 2
Verse 1:
Am
Drowning in the Blue Nile
F
He sent me 'Downtown Lights'
I hadn't heard it in a while
Am
My boredom's bone deep
F
This cage was once just fine
Am I allowed to cry?
Am
I dream of cracking locks
F
Throwing my life to the wolves
Or the ocean rocks
Am
Crashing into him tonight
He's a paradox
F
I'm seeing visions, am I bad?
Or mad? Or wise?

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

Verse 2:
Am F
I keep these longings locked
Am
In lowercase inside a vault
Someone told me
F
There's no such thing as bad thoughts
Only your actions talk
Am
These fatal fantasies
F
Giving way to labored breath
Taking all of me
Am
We've already done it in my head
If it's make believe
F
Why does it feel like a vow
We'll both uphold somehow?

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

Bridge:
G F
What if I roll the stone away?
C
They're gonna crucify me anyway
G
What if the way you hold me
F
Is actually what's holy?
F
If long suffering propriety
G
Is what they want from me
C
They don't know how you've haunted me
Am
So stunningly
F
I choose you and me
G
... Religiously

Chorus:

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

Outro:
G F
He sent me 'Downtown Lights'
C G F
I hadn't heard it in a while
Am I allowed to cry?
