[Pre-Chorus]
Am                          G
Chest now, he takes off her dress now

       F      F*
Let me go

Am                      G
I just can't look, it's killing me

    F           F*
And taking control
[Chorus]
C         F                Am
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea

G                     C          F               Am
Swimming through sick lullabies, choking on your alibis

G                 C            F          Am
But it's just the price I pay, destiny is calling me

G          C     F      Am            G           C  F  Am
Open up my eager eyes, 'cause I'm Mr. Brightside

             G           C  F  Am  G
Yeah I'm Mr. Brightside
