Intro:

E MajorE BB F#F# G#G#


Verse 1:
E MajorE      BB          F#F#       G#G#
I have this thing where I get older but just never wiser
E MajorE     BB       F#F#    G#G#  F#F#
Midnights become my afternoons
E MajorE     BB         F#F#
When my depression works the graveyard shift
  G#G#       E MajorE       BB         F#F#     G#G# F#F#
All of the people I’ve ghosted stand there in the room

Pre-chorus 1:
 E MajorE         BB      F#F#
I should not be left to my own devices
G#G#        E MajorE    BB
They come with prices and vices
   F#F#    G#G# F#F#
I end up in crisis
E MajorE       BB        F#F#
 I wake up screaming from dreaming
       G#G#  F#F#      E MajorE
One day I’ll watch as you’re leaving
     BB          F#F#     G#G# F#F#
Cause you got tired of my scheming


Chorus:
   E MajorE  BB
It’s me, hi
F#F#          G#G#
I’m the problem, it’s me
  E MajorE  BB   F#F#    G#G#
At tea time, everybody agrees
E MajorE      BB         F#F#
I’ll stare directly at the sun
     G#G#
But never in the mirror
E MajorE       BB
It must be exhausting
    F#F#       G#G#  F#F#
Always rooting for the anti-hero

Instrumental:
E MajorE  BB  F#F#  G#G#
E MajorE  BB  F#F#  G#G#  F#F#

Verse 2:
E MajorE      BB       F#F#    G#G# F#F#
Sometimes I feel like everybody is a sexy baby
E MajorE     BB        F#F#   G#G# F#F#
And I’m a monster on the hill
E MajorE     BB         F#F#          G#G#   F#F#
Too big to hang out, slowly lurching toward your favorite city
E MajorE          BB        F#F#  G#G# F#F#
Pierced through the heart, but never killed


Pre-chorus 2:
     E MajorE    BB     F#F#    G#G#    F#F#  E MajorE
Did you hear my covert narcissism I disguise as altruism
    BB       F#F#     G#G# F#F#
Like some crooked congressman
E MajorE        BB       F#F#
 I wake up screaming from dreaming
       G#G#  F#F#     E MajorE
One day I’ll watch as you’re leaving
        BB       F#F#  G#G# F#F#
And life will lose all its meaning


Chorus:
   E MajorE BB
It’s me, hi
F#F#          G#G#
I’m the problem, it’s me
  E MajorE  BB   F#F#    G#G#
At tea time, everybody agrees
E MajorE      BB        F#F#
I’ll stare directly at the sun
     G#G#   F#F#
But never in the mirror
E MajorE       BB
It must be exhausting
    F#F#        G#G#  F#F#
Always rooting for the anti-hero


Instrumental:
E MajorE  BB  F#F#  G#G#


Bridge:
E MajorE       BB      F#F#     G#G#
 I have this dream my daughter kills me for the money
E MajorE      BB         F#F#  G#G# F#F#
She thinks I left her in the will
E MajorE      BB        F#F#      G#G#
And all my family gathers round and then someone screams out
E MajorE        BB       F#F#   G#G# F#F#
 “He’s laughing up at us from hell!”


Chorus:
   E MajorE  BB
It’s me, hi
F#F#          G#G#
I’m the problem, it’s me
  E MajorE  BB   F#F#    G#G#
At tea time, everybody agrees
E MajorE      BB         F#F#
I’ll stare directly at the sun
     G#G#    F#F#
But never in the mirror
E MajorE       BB
It must be exhausting
    F#F#       G#G#  F#F#
Always rooting for the anti-hero.
