E Bsus4 C#m7 Bsus4

[Verse 1]

E
Swimming like a dolphin but I feel like a shark
  Bsus4
I sleep with one eye open and I'm always on guard
     C#m7
It's been a long time since I met somebody new
    A                                                    E
You never know how cold the ocean is until you're soaked through
        E
I don't know you at all so I'm starting from the top
Bsus4
Reading every page still predict the epilogue
E
Every great war had a couple sunny days
    A                                          E
I'm manning my post drawing hearts around your name

[Chorus]

        E
Oh it's sticky like a mousetrap

Sticky like the rain
Bsus4
Sticky like the candy on the wrapper in your hand
C#m7
Sticky like I want you but you make me feel insane
A
Sticky like I want you
                       E
But it always ends the same

[Verse 2]

  E
I always wanna talk, you're always in my brain
     Bsus4
It's been two years since I felt this kind of rage
  C#m7
I thought I was titanium with poison in my veins
  A                                                     E
I thought I'd never blush again, now I'm blushing every day
       E
You're everything I swore off, you're the thing I love to hate
      Bsus4
Every love you had before me has lamented just the same
   C#m7
It only takes a spark to set fire to the hills
  A                                        E
I just rebuilt my house, now it's kerosene filled

[Chorus]

        E
Oh it's sticky like a mousetrap

Sticky like the rain
Bsus4
Sticky like the candy on the wrapper in your hand
C#m7
Sticky like I want you but you make me feel insane
A
Sticky like I want you
                       E
Bsus4ut it always ends the same

[Bridge]

G#m     C#m7 A
   Hmmm-mm
   C#m                        Bsus4
Oh as I lay us down to rest before I ever kissed your chest
    E                                   A
I'd love you forever but I know what to expect
C#m
Lovers like me burn bright, burn fast
  Bsus4
I hope you take a picture and lay it in the ash
    E
I'd love you forever
                  A
But forever never lasts
        C#m                                                Bsus4
So I'll leave you without warning so you'll always want me back

[Chorus]

          E
Yeah it's sticky like a mousetrap

Sticky like the rain
Bsus4
Sticky like the candy on the wrapper in your hand
C#m7
Sticky like I want you but you make me feel insane
A
Sticky like I want you
                       E
But it always ends the same

[Outro]

   Bsus4  C#m7    A
Oh,     oh,    oh
                   E
It always ends the same
