Intro: (Em7 C9 G D/F#) 2x
Em7 C9
I saw our future in her eyes
G D/F#
We searched for love amidst the lies
Em7 C9
I didn't mean to draw her in
G D/F#
To a fight we'll never win. And I sigh as...
G Em7
She becomes jelly in my hands
D C9
Jelly in my hands, jelly in my hands
G Em7
She becomes jelly in my hands
D C9
Jelly in my hands, jelly in my hands
Em7 C9
She told me things I never heard
G D/F#
And I just drank her every word
Em7 C9
We swallow all that love can give
G D/F#
Cause love's the reason that we live. And I cry as...
G Em7
She becomes jelly in my hands
D C9
Jelly in my hands, jelly in my hands
G Em7
She becomes jelly in my hands
D C9
Jelly in my hands, jelly in my hands
G C9 G C9
Jelly in my hands, jelly in my hands
Em7 D/F# C9
Jelly in my hands, Ohh
Em7 C9
She crossed our T's with gazing eyes
G D/F#
We knew it was finalized
Em7 C9
Built this love on sinking sand
G D/F#
And I'm ashamed that I'm afraid to lend a hand as...
G Em7
She becomes jelly in my hands
D C9
Jelly in my hands, jelly in my hands
G Em7
She becomes jelly in my hands
D C9
Jelly in my hands, jelly in my hands
G C9 G C9
Jelly in my hands, jelly in my hands
Em7 D/F# C9
Jelly in my hands, Ohh
