[Intro]
G6sus4 Em (x3)
F#

[Verse]
G6sus4        Em
It was a close call
G6sus4           Em
Sitting in the back of the room
            G6sus4
With a boy gettin' it on
Em       F#    C
But they didn't know

Em
Closing on my black eye
  C         Em   C
Feel safe at times
      Em    C
Certain emblems
    Em      F#
Tell me it's time

[Chorus]
     C       Em   F#
Serpents in my mind
    C      Em    F#
Looking for your crimes
     C     Em    F#
Everything changes
     C     Em   F#
I don't want mine to this time

[Verse]
C     Em
You enjoy sucking on dreams
C           Em
So I will fall asleep with someone other than you
C        Em        F#
I had a thought you would take me seriously
C        Em     F#
And listen on

[Chorus]
     C       Em   F#
Serpents in my mind
  C    Em  F#    C

I'm searching for your crimes
   Em        F#
Everything changes
  C
In time

[Verse]
      Em
You'll stay frozen in time
C
Collagen girls
Em          C
Controlling minds
        Em
You hold the mirror well
F#   C       Em    F#
To everybody else

[Chorus]
     C       Em   F#
Serpents in my mind
     C  Em  F#  C
Trying to forgive your crimes
      Em  F#  C
Everyone changes in time
    Em     F#  C    Em
I hope he changes this time

[Outro]
C    Em   C   Em   F#
