🎸 Intro:

     F
I’m Dead
     Ebm                              F
The blood is all but draining from my head
     Ebm                                F
The nightmare started there but now has spread
    Ebm               Gb
My pulse is certainly dropping
       Db              Gb      F
And my life is hanging on by a thread (I’m scared)
Ebm                           F
Someone comes for me I’m unprepared
     Ebm             Eb
The wait has got me sweating
          Dbm                 Db
You can’t cut through all the tension

F
It’s hell on Earth, you know
     Bbm
I’m tweetin’ all about it
  F
I take it blow by blow
        Bbm
But I’d never scream or shout it

N.C
Passing period is over, everyone find your seats


🎸 Chorus:
      F                Ab
High School is killing me

It’s got me all out of rhythm and my melody
         F
It’s not cool
            Ab
It’s a fallacy
                 Bb
It’s a cruel and unusual brutality

    F     Ab
And I can survive it
    Bb      Db
For only so long
     F         Ab
High school is killing me
               F
I’m so fucking dead


🎸 Interlude:
F        Ab
Alright, class, pop quiz
Bb                 Db
I hope you’ve been hitting those books, Miss Lauter

F            Ab
I was up all late last night
      Bb               Db
And I couldn’t fucking study
                     F
(Didn’t want to anyway)
                 Ab
I was deep in a twitter fight
        Bb         Db
About a problematic puppy
                  F
(problematic pooch)
                  Ab
I had heart palpitations
                  Bb              Db
Trying to convert crypto to lunch money
F                  Ab
There’s nowhere to turn
Bb
For the class of twenty twenty-wern


🎸 Chorus:
      F                Ab
High school is killing me
                        Bb
It’s got me all out of rhythm and my melody (my melody)
      F
A cesspool
           Ab
Faux democracy
                   Bb
It’s one hell of a normal abnormality
Bb
Ugh! Agh! Arrgh!

    F         Ab
And I can survive it
    Bb      Db
for only so long
