A Song About Being Sad chords by Rex Orange County

Intro: F


verse 1
 F
Always felt like I needed to please her, or impress her
 Bb                 A          F
Though only in the hope that one day I would undress her

Don’t be offended
                    Bb
You think I’m ’bout to tell you that "I love you"

But I really really really fucking don’t
 F
See the months of obsession
   C      Dm
And crying for hours
        C      F       Bb
I even started sitting down in the shower, girl
            C
I’ll take my time on my own
             F
And I’ll


verse 2
F
Constantly told stories with a stretch of the truth
    Bb                   F
Trying hard to make memories to remember from youth

Desperately wanting you to be interested too
     Bb
It’s not clear what I need yet
            A
But it’s clear it’s not you
         F              C           Dm
Here’s what I’d say to any young man that’s still interested in you

Do you prioritise the things in your life
              Dm Bb
The things that you hope to do

Cause if not then
            C
Mate you’d better trust me when I tell you that

It’s not worth forgetting about yourself

Because of one fucking girl
F                    Dm
She may seem perfect, and gorgeous, and lovely

You’ll think she likes you
C          F
I mean I thought she loved me, no
   Bb
But no
      B   C    F
Neither of us will get down from the shelf
C
The only one she loves is herself
