MR. BRIGHTSIDE by The Killers

INTRO 4 BARS

VERSE

Coming out of my cage

And I’ve been doin 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

Now I’m falling asleep

And she’s calling a cab

While he’s having a smoke

And she 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

PRECHORUS

Chest now

He takes off her dress now

Let me go
(4 Bar break)

I just can’t look

Its killing me

And taking control

CHORUS

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 8 BARS

VERSE
I’m coming out of my cage
