Am                     E/G#
You're my Jesus, you're my God
   G                D/F#
The one before was just a fraud
    Am           E/G#
He shut me in a tiny box
   G               D/F#
And told me I was hard to love

       Am
I wake up at night, screaming
E7              C
I'm scared to shut my eyes, demons
 F            Am                          E7
But with your arms around me, I'm as safe as can be
       C
Never been this happy, so

Chorus:
Am                    F
I wanna die when you kiss me slowly
Dm                       E7
I'd be just fine if my blood stopped flowing
Am               F
My, oh, my, I'm terrified
            Dm                       E7
I know the rest of my life won't compare
                     Am
to these nights with you
                      F
I wanna die when you touch my body
Dm                        E7
Every time you stop, my skin starts crawling
Am               F
My, oh, my, you made my life
So, someone better read my rights
            Am          F
I wanna die, yeah, yeah
            Dm          E7
I wanna die, yeah, yeah
            Am          F
I wanna die, yeah, yeah
            Dm           E7
I wanna die, I wanna die

Oh, you saved me from a straight up crisis
Wanna drink you like wine, Dionysos
Everybody in my life got prices
Too high to pay, uh-oh

I still wake up at night, screaming
I'm scared to shut my eyes, demons
But with your arms around me, I'm as safe as can be
Never been this happy, so

Chorus:
I wanna die when you kiss me slowly
I'd be just fine if my blood stopped flowing
My, oh, my, I'm terrified
I know the rest of my life won't
compare to these nights with you
I wanna die when you touch my body
Every time you stop, my skin starts crawling
My, oh, my, you made my life
So, someone better read my rights
I wanna die, yeah, yeah
I wanna die, yeah, yeah
I wanna die, yeah, yeah
I wanna die, I wanna die

I wanna die
I wanna die
I wanna die, I wanna die
