Intro:
FF F7F7 A augmentedA FF F7F7 A augmentedA
Verse 1:
FF F7F7 A augmentedA FF F7F7 A augmentedA
I was in the other room
FF F7F7 A augmentedA FF F7F7 A augmentedA
Just laying on the carpet
FF F7F7 A augmentedA FF F7F7 A augmentedA
Sinking like a summer moon
FF F7F7 A augmentedA FF F7F7 A augmentedA
Slipping through a tar pit
Chorus:
G minorGm BbmBbm
You weren’t meant to see that
FF F7F7 A augmentedA FF F7F7 A augmentedA
You weren’t meant to see that
Verse 2:
FF F7F7 A augmentedA FF F7F7 A augmentedA
Of course there’s joy in the mundane
FF F7F7 A augmentedA FF F7F7 A augmentedA
Like hauling down the highway
FF F7F7 A augmentedA FF F7F7 A augmentedA
But then I swerved into the other lane
FF F7F7 A augmentedA FF F7F7 A augmentedA
And flipped over the barricades
Chorus:
G minorGm BbmBbm
You weren’t meant to see that
FF F7F7 A augmentedA FF F7F7 A augmentedA
You weren’t meant to see that
Bridge:
G minorGm BbmBbm
I watched the windows shatter
FF
As if it ever mattered
A augmentedA
And for once in my life I see things for what they are
Bb majorBb
And not through the lens of profit and achievement
Bb majorBb
It’s nothing when you need it
FF A augmentedA
One of those fortune cookie proclamations
A augmentedA G minorGm
That I could never swallow
BbmBbm
You weren’t meant to see that
FF
All the shit I should hold back
A augmentedA
'Cause it’s all in my head and I can see it through your swampy eyes
G minorGm BbmBbm FF F7F7 A augmentedA FF F7F7 A augmentedA FF F7F7 A augmentedA FF
That I won’t always be the only one for you you
