[Intro]
Em  G   4x

[Verse 1]
Em
I’m so, lost in desire,
can’t dig myself out
G
 Something’s out there pulling at me,
 like a ghost most definitely, yeah
Em
 Like having sex while on fire,
 there’s no putting you out
G
 Always out there biting that leash,
 but you do it so delicately, yeah
Em
 Hey now, I’ll never say I’m sorry,
 I was never that coy
G
 Pull the pin, your cracking my head,
 either way, I’m better off dead, yeah
Em
 Your rope is gripping me much tighter,
 I will figure you out
G
 Waiting for these cuts to sting,
 knowing how my heart will bleed,
 yеah

[Chorus]
C                        G
 That girl will be your end
            A
And she’ll bury you underground
C                          G
 She’ll kill you now and then
            A
Cause your heart has been spellbound

Em  G  2x

[Verse 2]
Em
 Some day I think I might scare you,
 I’ll be snеaking around
G
 I’m a thief who would think it
 was fun, when you sleep,
 your alarm’s undone, yeah
Em
 One day, you’ll know that I’m
 prowling, Am I creeping you out
G
 An enemy having bad intentions,
 like Halloween as an intervention

When your heart has been spellbound
