[Verse]
Bm           D                A
Sneak into my thoughts
G                     A                     E
Plant the seeds inside my head
Bm           D           A
The poison ivy grows
Em           G           A
A thief of mind at rest

[Chorus]
Em
You’v gotten under my skin
A
and into my mind
D
memories take root
Bm
in every thought I find
Em
a glimpse of Doubt
A
there’s gray skies above
D
It a about to spiral
Em
Out control, Love

[verse]
Bm           D           A
Incased in vegetation
G           A           E
every leaf a memory
Bm              D           A
excreteing toxic fluid
Em                     G           A
A rampant mental itch

[Chorus]
Em
You’v gotten under my skin
A
and into my mind
D
memories take root
Bm
in every thought I find
Em
a glimpse of Doubt
A
there’s gray skies above
D
It a about to spiral
Bm
Out control, Love

[Outro]
Em                             D
As the poison sinks into my heart
Bm                                         A
The leaves wither and fall apart
Em                               D
Revealing a flower so beautiful
Bm                                         A
But my eyes have closed so I’ll never know
Em                               D
its sight its smell its living glow
Bm                                         A
It’s light dims as its covered in snow
