Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Key: Eb

Difficulty: Intermediate

Verse 1:
Bb
What am I doing with my life?
                     Gm
I feel like I should be

Hitting some kind of mark
Eb
Then the house, the car
                   F
It all feels kinda off

Gm Eb Gm Eb

Gm                             Bb
Outside, walking the street at night
                    Gm
Trying to get these fears out of my mind
          Eb
You don't know what it's like
                                          F
Trying to please a million people all the time


Pre-Chorus:
Gm              Dm                Eb
I'd always done exactly what I'm told
Gm                   Dm             Eb
But that ain't gonna work for me no more


Chorus:
              Bb
I blame it on society
                         Gm
Trying to tell me who I'm supposed to be
                                 Eb
Why they always got to put these clothes on me?
                                                F
The ones that care enough, well they ain't even close to me

Gm            Bb
I blame it on society
                        Gm
I need a break from this anxiety
                            Eb
I just want someone to love me quietly
                                  F
To who I'm for real enough for who I try to be

              Bb       Eb Bb F
I blame it on society


Verse 2:
Bb
Sitting in a lukewarm bath

Blowing bubbles
Gm
Stinking rays of thoughts

My body's aching
Eb
I'm all alone
                         F
I call you up and I cry for home

Bb
But what is home anymore?
             Gm
What is this life we're looking for?
                 Eb
I feel I want to make it known
                        F
That I might disappoint you

And I'm sorry if I do


Pre-Chorus:
Gm              Dm           Eb
I'd always done exactly what I'm told
Gm                   Dm             Eb
But that ain't gonna work for me no more


Chorus:
              Bb
I blame it on society
                           Gm
Trying to tell me who I'm supposed to be
                                 Eb
Why they always got to put these clothes on me?
                                                F
The ones that care enough, well they ain't even close to me

But that ain't gonna work for me no more


Chorus:
              Bb
I blame it on society
                           Gm
Trying to tell me who I'm supposed to be
                                 Eb
Why they always got to put these clothes on me?
                                                F
The ones that care enough, well they ain't even close to me

To who I'm for real enough for who I try to be

I blame it on society
