Drinking Song For The Socially Anxious Chords

Intro: Madeleine Hyland: D In the back of a cab Like a puppet with no strings A Untangling my headphones cos sometimes they’re the only thing Bm That keeps my head in place D That keeps my head in place Verse 1: Joey Batey: D Arriving at the door I hope to god I’m not the first A My heart is tearing pages from that funny story I rehearsed Bm And I know I won’t be long D Cos I know I don’t belong

Verse 2: Madeleine Hyland: D Cos though my jokes are my armour And my kindness is my sword A The party swirls around me in a dress I can’t afford Bm And I do my best to breathe D But they’re stealing all the air Verse 4: Joey Batey: D And the hum from the fridge’ll Sing me soft littlе vigils A As all my steps too far keep saying ‘this is who you are’ Bm I should go home G I’m not lonеly I just like being on my own Chorus: Both: Bm And I’ll sing silence A And ask my glass of wine for guidance G A I might not make it tonight Bm And I’ll speak with my eyes A You’ll think I’m weird, one sympathises G A I might not make it tonight Post-Chorus: Both: Bm A G A Because I don’t find this easy like you Bm A Gonna go home and show my cat some memes G Cos he’s awesome A Like me Bm Like me A D G A Verse 5: Joey Batey: D Now I’m lying on a bed full of coats A Trying desperately to cope When you open up the door, say something stupid like Both: Bm ‘You’re lying on some coats’ Joey Batey: I say I know G It’s just sometimes nice to feel what it’s like to be in someone else’s coat Bridge: Both: D And we’re bursting at the seams Joey Batey: Cos the noise is crushing us A We think it’s so much worse than it seems Both: But that voice unsaid is rushing us Joey Batey: Bm And in a moment of total rapture And with every strength I have G I ask if you play D&D And your face lights up like you’ve woken up Bm From this endless fucking nightmare of pretending this is you A This is us, this is me and this how we’re meant to be G But your smile tells me I’m safe Both: And that voice unspoken’s heard A Cos if god make us all in his image Then god’s a fucking nerd Chorus: Both: Bm And I’ll sing silence A And ask my glass of wine for guidance G A I might not make it tonight Bm And I’ll speak with my eyes A You think I’m neat I’m not surprised G A That I might not make it tonight Post-Chorus: Both: Bm A G A Because I don’t find this easy like you Bm A Gonna go home and dress my cat up like Batman G A Cos he’s awesome like me Madeleine Hyland: Bm A G A And I don’t find this easy like you Bm I’m not lonely A G I just like being on my own A With you Joey Batey: Bm A And I’ll sing silence and ask my glass of wine for guidance G A I might not make it tonight Bm A G Gonna go home and tell my cat I’m not lonely if I’m A With you Outro: Both: D In the back of a cab, like two puppets with no strings A We share a pair of headphones, cos sometimes they’re the only things Madeleine Hyland: Bm That keep our heads in place D That keep our heads in place
