The Perfect Mistake
[Intro]
   Bm   EEm7sus2
[Verse 1]
BmI only know what the world shows through what I think feel and Efear.
BmKeep my eyes closed no threat is posed is I pretend I’m not Ehere.
BmI won’t negate my unholy fate with only 1 life Eleft.
BmI’ll give it a break, I’ll stand by and wait instead of getting Eobsessed.
[Chorus]
BmWhat have you F#mdone to make things so Afun,
Is it your wicked Etorture Dthat I Bmfind F#mso grBmeat?
BmYou render me F#mstunned when you hit your homeAruns,
I get the sensatioEn this iDs the pBmerfecF#mt misBmtake.
[Verse 2]
BmWhen you up the heat I’ll dance to your beat, I’ll even keep it in Etime.
BmI’m in for a treat if I move my feet and step them over the Eline.
BmA crack of your whip you’re so well equipped when performing your Eskill.
BmThe tip of your lips your words are unhitched and I’m in love with the Ethrill.
[Chorus]
BmWhat have you F#mdone to make things so Afun,
Is it your wicked Etorture Dthat I Bmfind F#mso grBmeat?
BmYou render me F#mstunned when you hit your homeAruns,
I get the sensatioEn this iDs the pBmerfecF#mt misBmtake.
[Bridge]

That you don’t hate C#mthis.
It’s just another thing for me to F#mdefend,

Oh we’re not broken we’re bent.
My little F#accident of the perfect Bmkind.
