   D                  E
I look at you and I know how I felt
           F#m                  A
All those summers ago, then I swore not to tell
D                         E7
I'm swallowed up by this Catholic guilt
     A
Oh, God
Oh, God

A
If I always do what I'm told
         G                 D
I'll be bitter at 50 years old
            A
I wasted my youth
Wasted my time
           G                        D
Wasted my worry on the little things
A
If you always just laugh it off
G                  D
I won't be opening up
                  A
We kissed on the bed
It messed with my head
                           G   D
Does that mean nothing to you?

D                     E
I look at you and I know how I felt
           F#m                  A
All those summers ago, then I swore not to tell
D                               E
I'm swallowed up whole by this Catholic guilt
      A
Oh God

Chorus:
                             C#m
I don't want to think about it
                             A
I don't want to think about it
                             C#m
I don't want to think about it
                             A
I don't want to think about it
                             C#m
I don't want to think about it
                             A
I don't want to think about it
                             C#m
I don't want to think about it
                             A
I don't want to think about it

I'm just trying to shake off the shame
When I'm wearing nothing but blame
Not easy, 'cause when I close my eyes
I just think of touching you

This can't be easy on his side
Laying there motionless each night
A head full of heat, skin, sweat, sin
Tangled up feet and now clutching
at sheets thinking

I look at her and I know how I felt
All those summers ago, then I swore not to tell
I'm swallowed up by this Catholic guilt
Oh, God

Chorus

No, oh
(I don't want to think about it,
I don’t want to think about it)
Can't control it
(I don't want to think about it)
Oh, God
No, oh
(I don't want to think about it,
I don’t want to think about it)
Can't control it
(I don't want to think about it,
I don’t want to think about it)
