Mess by Emily Kinney
CAPO 3
C D
I got bruises on my body, scratches on my face
C D
Cookie crumbs, empty bottles all over the place
C D
And my bathroom mirror seemed to lose its shine
C D
When you leave you always leave a little mess behind
C D
When you leave you always leave a little mess
C D
Oh I am cleanin’ out my cupboards, dustin’ off my frames
C D
Scrub my mouth with soap so I can’t whisper your name
C D
Sweeping 'round in circles, tryna’ get you off my mind
C D
When you leave you always leave a little mess behind
C D
When you leave you always leave a little mess
C D
Your cigarette smell, broke leather jacket taste
C D
It lingers in the air, right in front of my face
C D
You’re like a bar marker star stamp I can’t scrub off
C D
You’re like a tattered ankle bracelet I can’t seem to unknot
C D
And if you want to come around, I'm caught
C D
It’s so early in the morning, so late at night
C D
When you pull my hair and start a little play fight
C D
We are kissin’ in dark corners on your parents' floor
C D
The kind of love that makes my knees and elbows sore
C D
The kind of love that makes me just want more
C D
Your cigarette smell, broke leather jacket taste
C D
It lingers in the air, and it stays all day
C D
I got a blue stained t-shirt, my scratches bleed
C D
I’m sure everyone on the subway can see
C D
You make a mess, you make a mess of me
C D
Oh, I am usually so clean, baby usually so sharp
C D
But you always come around when I’m about to fall apart
C D
I’m like a fragile house of cards and you’re that small gust of wind
C D
Sweep by, quite the surprise, I’m on the floor again
C D
Your cigarette smell, broke leather jacket taste
C D
It lingers in the air and it never goes away
C D
You’re like a bar marker star stamp I can’t scrub off
C D
You’re like a tattered ankle bracelet I don’t wanna unknot
C D
And if you want to come around, I'm caught
C D
And if you wanna get me down, I’m got
C D
And if you wanna know how much, it's a lot
C D
Come over, come over, are we both in town
C D
Come over, come over, ‘cause I want you around
C D
I want you, I want you, to rip up my dress
C D
I want you, I want you to make, me a mess
