Hate Me Acoustic Version chords by Blue October

Intro:
G Em G Em

Verse 1:

G
I have to block out thoughts of you, so I don’t lose my head

Em
They crawl in like a cockroach, leaving babies in my bed

C
Dropping little reels of tape, to remind me I’m alone

A

Playing movies in my head that make a porno feel like home

G
There’s a burning in my pride, a nervous bleeding in my brain

Em
An ounce of peace is all I want for you, Will you never call again?

C
And  will you never say that you love me just to put it in my face

A
And will you never try to contact me for it’s I who wanted space

Chorus:

G
Hate me today

         Em
Hate me tomorrow

C                          D
Hate me for all the things I didn’t do for you

Verse 2:

G
I’m sober now for three whole months, that’s one accomplishment that you helped me with

Em
The one thing that always tore us apart, is the one thing I won’t touch again

C
In a sick way I want to thank you for holding my head up late at night

A
While I was Busy waging wars on myself, you were trying to stop the fight

G
You never doubted my warped opinions on things like suicidal hate

Em
And made me compliment myself when it was just to hard to take

C
So I’ll drive so far away, that I never cross your mind

A
And do whatever it takes in your heart to leave me behind

Chorus 2:

G
Hate me today

         Em
 Hate me tomorrow

C                           D
Hate me for all the things I didn’t do for you

G
Hate me in ways,

               Em
Yeah ways hard to swallow

C                          D
Hate me so you can finally see what’s good for you
