I'm The Villain In My Own Story chords by Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Cast

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
Am
I try to be good to others,
                          E7           Am
Treat my fellow men like brothers and sisters.
            E             F
That’s the story I’m the hero in,
   E                 F
So how come I can’t zero in
    E
On why this song sounds so sinister?

(Oh my God…)

Chorus:
        Am
I’m the villain in my own story,
                        E7
I’m the witch in my own tale.
       Dm                  Am
Though I insist I’m the protagonist,
      B7                           E
It’s clear that my soul is up for sale.

        Am
I’m the villain in my own story,
                      E
The bad guy in my TV show.
         Dm
I’m the “who” in the “whodunit,”
       Am
When I go to hell I’ll run it,
    E      Am
As Satan’s CFO!

(He needs someone to do the books.
Actually, I shouldn’t do that,
I’m terrible with money.)

Verse 2:
    Bbm
But wait, how am I a villain?
                   F7
I give annually to UNICEF,
     Gb       F
And just last week
           Gb             F
I helped a lady cross the street,
          F7          Bbm
Who was super old and deaf.

(Wait, where am I?
Ah, a bird!)

Chorus:
        Bbm
I'm the villain in my own story,
                                    F
I’m the bitch in the corner of the poster,
        Ebm
I’m the figure in the doorway
       Bbm
or the Kraken up in Norway,
    F                    Bbm
God who is this song’s composer?

(It’s like ridiculously sinister—like redunkuously sinister)

Outro:
        Bm
I’m the villain in my own story,
                             F#
My actions have gone way too far.
   Em                    Bm
I told myself that I was Jasmine,
       C#7             F#
But I realize now I’m Jafar.
      Bm
We’re told love conquers all,
                             F#
But that only applies to the hero.
       Em             Bm
Is the enemy what I’m meant to be?
   N.C.                  F#        Bm
Is being the villain my destiny?
