• Difficulty: Beginner

🎸 Intro:

FF


🎸 Verse 1:
           C majorC
I said I think you're special
           FF
You told me once that I'm selfish
         G+G
And I kissed you hard
          FF
In the dark, in the closet
          C majorC
You said my music is mellow
         FF
Maybe I'm just exhausted
            G+G
You think you're a good person
                 FF
Because you won't punch me in the stomach

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
  FF  C majorC   G+G
And I love you
       FF
I don't know why
     A minorAm E minorEm  FF
I just do, oh, but


🎸 Chorus:
      C majorC        G+G
You're not special, you're evil
FF            A minorAm    E minorEm
 You don't get to tell me to calm down
FF             C majorC G+G
 You made me feel like an equal
FF          A minorAm
 But I'm better than you
  E minorEm           FF
And you should know that by now
     C majorC       G+G
When you fell down the stairs
FF         A minorAm     E minorEm
 It looked like it hurt and I wasn't sorry
FF       C majorC    G+G
 I should have left you right there
FF        A minorAm   E minorEm      FF
 With your hostages, my heart and my car keys
C majorC     G+G
You don't know me


🎸 Bridge:
FF      C majorC
 I wanna be happy
     FF        C majorC     G+G       DmDm
I'm ready to walk into my room without lookin' for you
   FF      C majorC     G+G
I'll go up to the top of our building
DmDm   FF     A minorAm     E minorEm        FF
 And remember my dog when I see the full moon


🎸 Outro:
FF    C majorC  G+G FF
I can't feel it yet
  C majorC  G+G  FF
But I am waiting
