Intro:
Em7 D
Verse 1:
Em7 D
Can't you see, that I'm sick of this
Em7 D
Chances are, you're oblivious
Em7 D
To how I feel, sitting on your throne
Em7 D Em7 D Em7
And I'm sure that I'm not alone... not alone... not alone
Chorus:
Cadd9
Tell me please
D
Who the fuck did you want me to be
Bsus4
Was it something that I couldn't see
Em
Never knew this would be so political
Cadd9
And please
D
I'm still wearing this miserable skin
B
And it's starting to tear from within
Cadd9
But it's obvious that doesn't bother you
Em
So Please
Verse 2:
Em7 D
I didn't think, that you'd sell me out
Em7 D
Now I know, what you're all about
Em7 D
You might feel, in control of things
Em7 D Em7 D Em7
But you're not, holding all the strings... all the strings... all the strings
Chorus:
Cadd9
Tell me please
D
Who the fuck did you want me to be
Bsus4
Was it something that I couldn't see
Em
Never knew this would be so political
Cadd9
And please
D
I'm still wearing this miserable skin
Bsus4
And it's starting to tear from within
Em
But it's obvious that doesn't bother you
Chorus:
Cadd9
So please
D
Don't keep telling me that it's OK
Bsus4
I don't buy all the shit that you say
Em
And quite honestly I'm fucking sick of it
Cadd9
So please
D
If I cut off this nose from my face
Bsus4
Then I wouldn't feel so out of place
Cadd9
But it still wouldn't be quite enough for you
Em7
So please
