Am F C ×2
[Verse 1]
Am
We sat right upon the leaves
F C
I don't like the weather, I don't like the ground
Am
Not with anyone who knows me
F C
I don't like the promise, I don't like the sound
[Chorus]
Am
With my head in the lap of a stranger
F C
I am not a sinner, I am not a saint
Am
A victim of my own infatuation
F C
call me an admirer, call me a disgrace
Am
With my head in the lap of a stranger
F C
I am not a sinner, I am not a saint
Am
A victim of my own infatuation
F C
call me an admirer, call me a mistake
[Verse 2]
Am
Intimate in my emotions
F C
ready for the nearness, dreading the approach
Am
Brave enough to take a bullet
F C
but hiding in a short skirt, should've worn a coat
Am
I need a hand to keep me steady
F C
put it where you want to, I will not object
Am
Only to myself will I argue
F C
staring at the leaves and your damning silhouette
[Chorus]
Am
With my head in the lap of a stranger
F C
I am not a sinner, I am not a saint
Am
A victim of my own infatuation
F C
call me an admirer, call me a disgrace
Am
With my head in the lap of a stranger
F C
I am not a sinner, I am not a saint
Am
A victim of my own infatuation
F C
call me an admirer, call me a mistake
[Verse 3]
Am
I would sacrifice my image
F C
haven't I already, aren't I a fool?
Am
Setting fire to my reputation
F C
just to feel attractive, even if I'm used
Am
to be used is to be wanted
F C
And if I am wanted, how can I complain?
Am
You have me on the ground before you
F
fully in your power, but I don't know your name
[Chorus]
Am
With my head in the lap of a stranger
F C
I am not a sinner, I am not a saint
Am
A victim of my own infatuation
F C
call me an admirer, call me a disgrace
Am
With my head in the lap of a stranger
F C
I am not a sinner, I am not a saint
Am
A victim of my own infatuation
F C
call me an admirer, call me a misatke
Am
With my head in the lap of a stranger
F C
I am not a sinner, I am not a saint
Am
A victim of my own infatuation
F C
call me an admirer, call me a mistake
