I'm losing you in lust 
See it 
 
Gm7 
Strangers sleeping in my bed,  
 
          Am7       Bbmaj7 
It should have been you instead 
Gm7                               Am7  Bbmaj7 
All alone in the sweats with eyes I've never met 
 
Gm7                                 Am7 
I've been losing pieces of your face 
Bbmaj7 
I'm losing you, I'm losing you in lust 
Gm7                                    Am7 
Once distinct but how the memory fades 
Bbmaj7          Dm         C         
I'm losing you, I'm losing you in lust 
  
Bbmaj7        Gm7                  Dm 
It's just an option not to stay  
      C 
Not a phase  
Bmaj7        Gm7                        Dm 
It's just a chance you'll have to take 
      C 
Not a phase 
 
Gm7 
Strange to sleep in this bed 
                        Bbmaj7 
I wonder what the lines of the ceiling meant 
Gm7 
Sign me up for regret 
                    Am7    Bbmaj7 
That's you up there if you makes the bed 
 
Gm7                                 Am7 
I've been losing pieces of your face 
Bbmaj7 
I'm losing you, I'm losing you in lust 
Gm7                                    Am7         Bmaj7 
Once distinct but how the memory fades 
           Dm         C         
I'm losing you in lust 
 
Bbmaj7        Gm7                  Dm 
It's just an option not to stay  
      C 
Not a phase  
Bmaj7        Gm7                        Dm 
It's just a chance you'll have to take 
      C 
Not a phase 
 
Bbmaj7 
And now love isn't right 
Gm7                      Dm 
And now I'm fucking time 
C 
Not a phase 
Bbmaj7      Gm7                   Dm 
It's just a chance you had to take 
      C 
Not a phase
