The Chills Lyrics

there are two kinds of chills in the world
two kinds of chills that i've observed
the kind that i get in a haunted house
and the kind i get holding your hand
in a haunted house

there are millions of books in the world
millions of birds and all kinds of food
but only two chills i've observed
the kind that i get watching open heart surgery
and the kind i get when you are nice to me

there's two kinds of chills in the world
one kind of love in the world
there's one kind of love in the world
and two chills, one kind of love...
that's not true, i'm confused

there's one kind of love in the world
there's one kind of love... i'm confused
there's two kinds of chills i've observed
i'm confused

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
