• Difficulty: Intermediate

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



♫ Pre-Chorus 1:
A              E                  B
I should not be left to my own devices
      C#m                  A
They come with prices and vices
   E                      B         C#m
I end up in crisis (I’ve realized all this time)
A        E                    B
I wake up screaming from dreaming
          C#m
One day I’ll watch as you’re leaving
A            E                   B
Cause you got tired of my scheming
   C#m
(For the last time)

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


♫ Verse 2:
A            E              B     C#m
Sometimes I feel like everybody is a sexy baby
A          E               B     C#m
And I’m a monster on the hill
A          E                  B             C#m
Too big to hang out, slowly lurching towards your favorite city
A               E                         B      C#m
Pierced through the heart, but never killed


♫ Pre-Chorus 2:
A        E                B              C#m             A
Did you hear my covert narcissism lightly disguised as altruism
   E                 B                                C#m
Like some kind of congressman (I’ve realized all this time)
A        E                    B
I wake up screaming from dreaming
          C#m
One day I’ll watch as you’re leaving
A         E                 B
And life lose all of its meaning
   C#m
(For the last time)


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


♫ Bridge:
A         E                   B             C#m
I have this dream my daughter-in-law kills me for the money
A         E                       B     C#m
She thinks I left them in the will
A        E                    B                     C#m
The family gathers around and reads it and someone screams out
A          E                     B     C#m
“She’s laughing up at us from hell!”
A       E
It’s me, hi
B              C#m
I’m the problem, it’s me
A       E
It’s me, hi
B   C#m
I’m the problem, it’s me
A       E   B    C#m
It’s me, hi
everybody agrees
     A       E       B     C#m
Everybody agrees…


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