C#m                             G#m
You tell me you like to burn a bridge
         F#                         C#m
That you always make mistakes like this
    G#m         F#
Are you having fun

C#m                             G#m
I tell you I've got my secrets too
      F#                      C#m
I go hunting for someone like you
    G#m         F#
Are you having fun

C#m          B
Oh, tell me how did it feel?
      F#m           A
Did it all get too real for you?
            C#m                 B
Everybody's screaming out your name
         F#m             A
Are you scared? Cause I don't think you're worth it

Chorus:
C#m  B  F#m A
Ties, ties,
ties, ties
(Just wanna be the one you tie)
C#m    B
Ties, ties
(Just wanna be the one you tie)
F#m    A
Ties, ties
(Just wanna be the one you tie)

And you’re a dancer, well I’m a spy
It’s so beautiful to see you lie
Are you having fun?
Then give it up, you don’t need that stress
You’re still hungry for another test
Are you having fun?

Oh, tell me, how did it feel?
Did it all get too real for you?
Everybody's screaming out your name
Are you scared?
'Cause I don’t think you’re worth it

Chorus

C#m           B                 F#m           A
Just another bite that takes it higher than before
                     C#m                 B
Did it make you feel good? Does he run away?
                   F#m                 A
Does he fill the space? It feels like you don't care.

C#m           B                  F#m           A
Just another bite that takes it higher than before
                     C#m                 B
Did it make you feel good? Does he run away?
                   F#m                 A
Does he fill the space? It feels like you're okay

Chorus:
I just wanna be the one you tie (tie-ie-ie)
You tie-ie-ie
You tie-ie-ie
You tie-ie-ie
Just wanna be the one you tie
Tie-ie-ie
Tie-ie-ie
Just wanna be the one you tie
Tie-ie-ie
Tie-ie-ie
Just wanna be the one you tie
