VERSE
C#C# EbmEbm
Keep drinking coffee, stare me down across the table
BbmBbm F#F# AbAb
While I look outside
C#C# EbmEbm
So many things I'd say if only I were able, but I
BbmBbm F#F# AbAb
just keep quiet and count the cars that pass by
C#C# EbmEbm
You've got opinions man, we're all entitled to 'em
BbmBbm F#F# AbAb
But I never asked
C#C# EbmEbm
So let me thank you for your time, and try not to waste any more of mine
BbmBbm F#F# AbAb
Get out of here fast

There's no one here to save

Who cares if you disagree, you are not me

You dare tell me who to be, who died
Absus4Absus4 AbAb
And made you king of anything?

VERSE
C#C# EbmEbm
You sound so innocent, all full of good intent
BbmBbm F#F# AbAb
Swear you know best
C#C# EbmEbm
But you expect me to, jump up on board with you and ride
BbmBbm F#F# AbAb
off into your delusional sunset
C#C# EbmEbm
I'm not the one who's lost, With no direction, oh
BbmBbm F#F# AbAb
But you'll never see, you're so
C#C# EbmEbm
Busy making maps, with my name on them in all caps
BbmBbm F#F# AbAb
You got the talking down, just not the listening
CHORUS
BbmBbm F#F# C#C#
Who cares if you disagree, you are not me
AbAb
Who made you king of anything, so
BbmBbm F#F# C#/F
You dare tell me who to be, who died
Absus4Absus4 (delayed)Ab
And made you king of anything?
BRIDGE
Absus4Absus4 EbM7Ebm7
All my life I've tried
BbmBbm F#F#
To make everybody happy while I
Absus4Absus4 EbM7Ebm7
Just hurt and hide, waiting for
EbM7Ebm7 C#/F F#F# Absus4Absus4
Someone to tell me it's my turn to decide

And made you king of anything?
