Chords with lyrics
Verse 1:
G+G
One year we flew up to Alaska
All the scenery was gorgeous
E minorEm C majorC
And the people all so pleasant what a place
G+G
Might have been our one chance
To experience it firsthand
E minorEm D MajorD
All the culture and the beauty of the state
But when we arrived I
C majorC G+G
Couldn’t bring myself to leave the car
E minorEm
Stayed locked away with my guitar
And while the others
Studied the mountains and the rivers
C majorC D MajorD G+G
I just stared down at my fretboard, pad and pen
Verse 2:
G+G
Lately I’ve been struggling to conjure up
A augmentedA band aid for this problem
E minorEm C majorC
That has freshly manifested in my brain
G+G
It seems as though I’ve grown a light switch
Deep within the recess of my psyche
E minorEm D MajorD
One if flipped renders me borderline insane
It’s like ten seconds ago
C majorC G+G
Everything was fine and dandy
G+G E minorEm
But now everything is f**ked
E minorEm
And there ain’t no rhyme or reason for my seething
C majorC D MajorD G+G
I just wanna be okay but I feel stuck
Verse 3:
G+G
I don’t get to see the family often
Always on road
E minorEm
So, one year we organized a trip
C majorC G+G
We’d take to Lake Tahoe
A augmentedA place we’d been when I was younger
E minorEm
All the memories are golden
D MajorD
But when we arrived I
C majorC G+G
found myself down at the bar
E minorEm
Black out drunk and seeing stars
While my loved ones
All played board games by the fire
C majorC D MajorD G+G
I did drink myself within an inch of death
Verse 4:
G+G
I’m no stranger to mistakes
It feels like every step I take
E minorEm C majorC
I trip myself I can’t get out of my own way
G+G
I’m by far my harshest critic and a cynic
E minorEm
Too neurotic to accept that sometimes
D MajorD
sh*t is just o-kay
There's always gotta be
C majorC G+G
Some problem I alone must solve
E minorEm
But that just ain’t the case at all
Cause I got friends and family
C majorC
But my worst enemy is me
D MajorD G+G
And me just can’t escape my head
Outro:
C majorC
Cause I was born to sabotage myself
G+G
Well that's on me and no one else
E minorEm
I’m a human grenade
D MajorD
And I’m good at pullin’ my own pin
C majorC
You can blame it on my mental health
G+G
Addictions, stress and anything else
E minorEm
All it boils down to
Is I’m an a**hole with a loud mouth
C majorC D MajorD G+G
And a system of support I don’t deserve
