[Intro]
D , Em9 , G/B , G , D4/F# , Em7 , D , G , G/B , G , D4/F# , Em7

[Verse 1]
D              Em9            F7M
In through my veins, without brains,
     G           D            Em9         F7M
I involuntarily take what I need, then I bleed
        G
And it comes right back to me.

[Pre-Chorus]
    G         C9       G            C9   A74
But guts only eat and sometimes they repeat on you.
G           C9           G         C9    A74
Keeping you on your toes or crouched above the loo.

[Chorus]
B                       C                               
Thats what you get when you
                                 D Em9 G D4/F# Em7
Confuse your stomach with your heart.
Bb                      C      
Thats what you get when you
                                 D
Confuse your stomach with your heart.

[Verse 2]
Blood turns from blue into red
'cause of oxygen that it's fed
and I turn back to blue,
'cause I'm losing you,

[Pre-Chorus]
But tummy just growls
not real words, mostly vowels
and I always forget sometimes Y
Gratification can cause constipation
if organs are left to die.

[Chorus]
That's what you get when you confuse your stomach with your heart.
                                                                 A
That's what you get when you confuse your stomach with your heart.

[Bridge]
D                  G                      D
I gained all this weight out of love, not hate
( D )               G
I've got so much love to give (give me a break!)
D                    G                            D
I'd love to sleep in late, but that dessert looks great.
                    G     
Was it something I said or was it some I ate?

[Instrumental]
A , Bm11, G , D , A , Bm11, G , A7

[Verse 3]
Heart beats in sync, beat in time,
beat in bodies likes hers and mine,
But I fed only one, and look what it's done;
I've run out of blood and I'm chewing my cud and

[Pre-Chorus]
My gastrointestinal festival's best of all
The cardiovascular questions they ask you are
Less than the answers they give you like cancer and

[Chorus]
That's what you get when you confuse your stomach with your heart.
That's what you get when you confuse your stomach with your heart.

[End on D]
