Tuning: Standard

♫ Intro:

G G

Spoken:
G
Hey
It's been a while

since you saw my face
G7
I haven't been doing so great
🎸
Accuracy Rating: - Votes: -
So I took a little break
G
A lot of people are saying

some things about me

that aren't quite true
D7
Doesn't matter if it's

true though

Just as long as it's
                 G
entertaining to you, right?

You guys having fun?


♫ Chorus:
G                            G7
All aboard the toxic gossip train
C
Chugging down the tracks of
 D7
misinformation
G                   G7
The toxic gossip train
C
You got a one way ticket to
 D7
manipulation station
G              G7
Toxic gossip train
C
Tie me to the tracks and
   Cm
harass me for my past
G
Those rumors look like facts
             E7
if you don't mind the gaps
C                                D7
I won't survive in the crash but hey
N.C.                   G
At least you're havin' fun

G

Spoken:
G
Uh, hi everyone
G
I've been wanting to come online

and talk to you about a few things
G
Um, even though my team has

strongly advised me to not say

what I want to say
G
I recently realized that

they never said that I couldn't sing

what I wanna say, so
G
Here I am, and, um, today

I only wanna talk about the facts
G
So, I hope that you'll be

willing to listen
G
Here we go
G
Many years ago,

I used to message my fans
G
Uh, but not in a creepy way

like a lot of you are

trying to suggest
G
It was more of a loser kind of way
G
Where I was just trying to be

besties with everybody
G
It was kinda like, uh when you

go to like a family gathering,

you know?
G
And there's a weird aunt

there who keeps coming up to

you and going like

"Hey girl, what's the tea!"
G
And you're like "Ehhh"
G
Um, that was me, but in

group chats with my fans,

it was weird




♫ Verse 1:
G
I've been sharing my life

online for over 15 years
G
I've poured my heart

out to and because of that I feel
C
Like I'm talking to my friends,

but, in the beginning of my career
D7
I didn't really understand

that maybe there should be

some boundaries there
C                       G
There were times in the DMs

when I would overshare
D7                   G
Details of my life, which was

really weird of me
C                        G
I haven't done that for years,

you see
D7
Because I changed my behavior,
            G
and I took accountability


Spoken:
N.C.
But that's not very interesting, is it?

♫ Chorus:
G                                G7
So let's go on the toxic gossip train
C
The locomotive's fueled with
  D7
hateful accusations
G                 G7
The toxic gossip train
C                          D7
Steamroll over someone's reputation
G              G7
Toxic gossip train
C
Hop on board, but close your eyes,
      Cm
otherwise you'll realize
G
That the train is made of lies
         E7
and that person you despise
C                                D7
Maybe didn't deserve to die, but hey
N.C.                    G
At least you're havin' fun

Spoken:
G
In all seriousness, I do think

it's really important to hold

people accountable for their mistakes
G
Um, y'know, we should hope that

everyone can learn from their mistakes
G
And grow, and change their behavior,

and be a better person
G
This is something that

I've always tried to do

when I make mistakes
G
And is something that I will

continue to try t- what?
N.C.
Oh, you don't care? Oh, okay


♫ Verse 2:
G
I thought you wanted me

to take accountability
G7
But that's not the point of

your mob mentality is it, no
C
Your goal is to ruin

the life of the person you despise
D7
While you dramatize your lies
                     G
and monetize their demise


Spoken:
G
Yeah, um, I feel like I can

already hear the comments on this video
C
"She's gaslighting, manipulating!"
G
"Ugh, she's a narcissist and a rat!"
D7
"I would never make a mistake like that."


♫ Verse 3:
G
Oh, I'm sorry I didn't realize
G
That all of you are perfect,

so please, criticize me
C
Bring out the daggers

made from your perfect past
D7
And stab me repeatedly in my

bony little back
C                  G
I'm sure you're disappointed
        D7           G
in my s*itty little song
C                            G
I know that you wanted me to say
            D7          G
that I was 100% in the wrong
C
Well, I'm sorry, I'm not gonna
 G
take that route
D7
Of admitting to lies and rumors that
    G
you made up for clout


♫ Verse 4:
G
Hey everybody, I found

someone new to harass
G7
She did some things that

I do not like, in her past
C
So everybody, gather 'round,
                       D7
'cause we're about to attack
D7
But not based on facts, oh no
C
Your loaded lethal weapon is your
 Cm
fingers on the keys
G
You don't need any armor
              E7
when you can hide behind a screen
C
So, shoot me down, quick,
        D7        N.C.
with a click, and bam
                   G
My reputation's deceased


Spoken:
G
Uh, I also wanted to take a minute

to talk about that girl,

Miranda Sings
G7
You know the one, yeah her
C
Uh, she's PG-13, it says

that on my website

♫ Verse 5:
C
And it's always been that way
D7
And that's why you won't

find my videos on the YouTube Kids app
                      C
Anyway, um, I didn't realize
            G
it was my responsibility
D7
To decide what was appropriate for
       G
every kid to see
C
I've always relied on parents
    G
to decide if they're comfortable
D7
With their families watching my
                   G
YouTube videos or coming to my live shows
G
Now, have I made some jokes
               N.C
in poor taste? Yes
G7                                 N.C.
Have I made lots of dumb mistakes? Yes
C
Am I sad that there's some fans
                    N.C
that feel betrayed? Yes
D7                                  N.C.
But was my intention to manipulate? No


Spoken:
G
It doesn't really matter

what my intention was
G
'Cause it seems as though

everyone's already decided on that
G
Let me tell you, it's not very

fun to have millions of people

all over the world
G
Call you the most vile,

horrendous, disgusting,

life-ruining words
G
That a person can be called,

in my opinion
G
Um, it doesn't matter that

these things aren't true
G
Uh, everyone just believes that

you are the type of person
     N.C
who manipulates

and abuses children
N.C.
So, I just wanted to say that, um
G
The only thing that I've ever groomed
G7
is my 2 Persian cats
C                  Cm
I'm not a groomer, I'm just a loser


♫ Verse 6:
G
Who didn't understand I shouldn't
   G7
respond to fans
C
And I'm not a predator
            Cm
even though a lot of you think so
G
Because 5 years ago,
         D7
I made a f*rt joke
N.C.
So,
C
even though I know this video
        G
won't change anyone's mind about me
N.C.                            
I still felt it was important to
 D7
come on here and defend myself a little
     G
And take accountability
N.C.
And I also wanted to say that
     C
To anyone out there who has ever
   G
supported me in any capacity


Spoken:
D7
I really, really appreciate you,

thank you
N.C.
For what it's worth, I never had

any bad intentions
N.C.
But I do feel like shit


♫ Chorus:
G                  G7
The toxic gossip train
C
Chugging down the tracks of
  D7
misinformation
G                   G7
The toxic gossip train
C
You got a one way ticket to
 D7
manipulation station
G              G7
Toxic gossip train
C
Tie me to the tracks and
  Cm
harass me for my past
G
Rumors look like facts
                E7
when you don't mind the gaps
C                                D7
I won't survive in the crash but hey
N.C.
I hope you had some fun


Spoken:
N.C.                 G
Actually, y'know, I feel like

maybe I should
G
Let you guys know something, um
G
Seems like, maybe you're confused

about something? I don't know
N.C.
Let me try to help, um


♫ Verse 7:
G
Sometimes people make a mistake

and it doesn't make them a

horrible person, whoa
C
Sometimes people can make a
                     D7
mistake and they're still a good person
N.C.
Crazy, I know
G
Sometimes people can make a
                      G7
mistake and you don't have to

take that mistake, oh no
C
And twist it up, and grind it,

and add some lies to it,

and pulverize it
C
And stab it with knives,
                      N.C
and ruin a life, and, oh no
G
Sometimes people can make a mistake,
            G7
it doesn't mean you gotta

send them hate, oh no
C
Sometimes people can make a
                      D7
mistake and you can kindly

let them know, and help them to grow
C                 G
Sometimes people make mistakes,
        G                    E7
simply because they made a mistake?
C
And that mistake doesn't
                      D7
make them a terrible human
                      G
It just makes them a human

Spoken:
N.C.
But what do I know?
N.C.
Fuck me, right?
