* is single strum
Verse
[C] [G]
I have this thing where I get older but just never wiser
[Am] [F]
Midnights become my afternoons
[C] [G]
When my depression works the graveyard shift
[Am] [F]
All of the people I've ghosted stand there in the room
Pre-Chorus
[C] [G]
I should not be left to my own devices
[Am]
They come with prices and vices
I end up in crises
[Fmaj7]
(Tale as old as time)
[C] [G]
I wake up screaming from dreaming
[Am]
One day I'll watch as you're leaving
[F]
Cuz you got tired of my scheming
[Fmaj7]
(For the last time)
Chorus
[C] [G]
It's me, hi, I'm the problem, it's me
[Am] [F]
At tea time, everybody agrees
[C] [G]
I'll stare directly at the sun, but never in the mirror
[Am] [F]
It must be exhausting, always rooting for the anti-hero
Verse
[C] [G]
Sometimes I feel like everybody is a sexy baby
[Am] [F]
And I'm a monster on the hill
[C] [G]
Too big to hang out, slowly lurching towards your favorite city
[Am] [F]
Pierced through the heart, but never killed
Pre-Chorus
[Cmaj7] [G] [Am]
Did you hear my covert narcissism I disguised as altruism
[F]
Like some kind of congressman (tale as old as time)
[C] [G]
I wake up screaming from dreaming
[Am]
One day I'll watch as you're leaving
[F]
And life will lose all of its meaning
[Fmaj7]
For the last time
Chorus
[C] [G]
It's me, hi, I'm the problem, it's me
[Am] [F]
At tea time, everybody agrees
[C] [G]
I'll stare directly at the sun, but never in the mirror
[Am] [F]
It must be exhausting, always rooting for the anti-hero
Bridge
[C] [G]
I have this dream my daughter-in-law kills me for the money
[Am] [Fmaj7]
She thinks I left them in the will
[C] [G]
The family gathers around and reads it and then someone screams out
[Am] [F]
"She's laughing up at us from hell!"
(quietly)
[C] [G]
It's me, hi, I'm the problem, it's me
[Am] [Fmaj7]
It's me, hi, I'm the problem, it's me
[Cmaj7] [Gmaj7]
It's me, hi, everybody agrees
[Gmaj7] [Fmaj7]
Everybody agreessssss...
Chorus
[C]* [G]
It's me, hi, I'm the problem, it's me (I'm the problem, it's me)
[Am] [Fmaj7]
At tea time, everybody agrees
[C] [G]
I'll stare directly at the sun, but never in the mirror
[Am] [F]
It must be exhausting, always rooting for the anti-hero.
