🎸 Verse 1:
E minor 7Em7                   G+G
Sittin' on the floor playin' Chinese Checkers
        C majorC      G+G
We were in the summer house
E minor 7Em7                     G+G
Crawlin' at my skin like those Aran-knit sweaters
          C majorC                  G+G
You're just talkin' at me now
I've got other things to think about
C majorC       G+G
Always had my doubts
    E minorEm G+G
I'm so worn out

🎸 Verse 2:
E minor 7Em7                G+G
Sittin' with a frog in between my fingers
            C majorC
I've realised that I've lost them all
         G+G
Try to catch them up and fall
E minor 7Em7                    G+G
Lookin' at my scar when you mentioned dinner
           C majorC
"What do you want to eat tonight "
       G+G
In a daze
I say, "That's fine"
 E minorEm  Am7Am7 B minorBm C minorCm G+G
I know I'II let you down
     A minorAm G+G
When you find out
        E minor 7Em7
I'm lettin' you go

  E minor 7Em7          D MajorD
The big boss writes about power
G+G                 C majorC G+G A augmentedA
People used to say I look like her
   E minorEm          G+G
It's obvious I don't wanna be here
G+G
Good thing I'm a maladaptive daydreamer
    C majorC            G+G
So I'll take myself back to that summer
G+G
Playin' checkers with my brother
