Tessa Violet - On My Own
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4zjYbNNQAM8

The whole chord progression in this song is basically a songwriting trick; take a D minor chord
and then just change the bass note, always going downwards, and chromatically from C to B to Bb to A.
The Bm7b5 & Bbmaj7 chords can also be thought of as Dm/B & Dm/Bb.

Verse 1:

Dm                            Dm/C
   I put my foot in my mouth again
Bm7b5                                 Bbmaj7  A
      I hope they still want to be my friends
Dm                       Dm/C
   I got desirable qualities
Bm7b5                                     Bbmaj7  Dm/A
      If you don't mind my obsessing with me

Dm                               Dm/C
   I kept repeating myself yesterday
Bm7b5                                  Bbmaj7  Dm/A
      Repeating myself I keep on yesterday
Dm                                 Dm/C
   I want a people that I can call home
Bm7b5                                         Bbmaj7   Dm/A  Dm
      But why do the work when I'm doing just fine all on my own


Chorus:

         Dm/C          Bm7b5
Oh-oh-oh-oh   Oh-oh-oh-oh
            Bbmaj7 Dm/A   Dm
And I don't mind   being alone
         Dm/C          Bm7b5
Oh-oh-oh-oh   Oh-oh-oh-oh
          Bbmaj7 Dm/A     Dm
I'm doing fine,  me on my own


Verse 2:

                                  Dm/C
Sometimes I worry that people can hear
Bm7b5                                      Bbmaj7  Dm/A
      What I'm thinking spilling out of my ears
Dm                               Dm/C
   I calculate what I'm going to say
Bm7b5                                  Bbmaj7  Dm/A
      Talking to people's a game I can play

Dm                                      Dm/C
   I'm working hard to look like I don't try
Bm7b5                               Bbmaj7  Dm/A
      But I get rosy when I say goodbye
Dm                                      Dm/C
   It's probably true that I want to be known
Bm7b5                                         Bbmaj7   Dm/A  Dm
      But why do the work when I'm doing just fine all on my own


Chorus:

         Dm/C          Bm7b5
Oh-oh-oh-oh   Oh-oh-oh-oh
            Bbmaj7 Dm/A   Dm
And I don't mind   being alone
         Dm/C          Bm7b5
Oh-oh-oh-oh   Oh-oh-oh-oh
          Bbmaj7 Dm/A     Dm
I'm doing fine,  me on my own
         Dm/C          Bm7b5
Oh-oh-oh-oh   Oh-oh-oh-oh
            Bbmaj7 Dm/A   Dm
And I don't mind   being alone
         Dm/C          Bm7b5
Oh-oh-oh-oh   Oh-oh-oh-oh
          Bbmaj7 Dm/A
I'm doing fine,  me on my


Bridge:

Dm  Dm/C  Bm7b5  Bbmaj7   Dm/A      Dm
                  And I'm trying to read
Dm/C  Bm7b5  Bbmaj7 Dm/A          Dm
               What you want from me
Dm/C  Bm7b5  Bbmaj7   Dm/A      Dm
              And I'm trying to read
Dm/C  Bm7b5  Bbmaj7 Dm/A     Dm
                    Oh-oh-oh-oh


Chorus:

         Dm/C          Bm7b5
Oh-oh-oh-oh   Oh-oh-oh-oh
            Bbmaj7 Dm/A   Dm
And I don't mind   being alone
         Dm/C          Bm7b5
Oh-oh-oh-oh   Oh-oh-oh-oh
          Bbmaj7 Dm/A     Dm
I'm doing fine,  me on my own
         Dm/C          Bm7b5
Oh-oh-oh-oh   Oh-oh-oh-oh
            Bbmaj7 Dm/A   Dm
And I don't mind   being alone
         Dm/C          Bm7b5
Oh-oh-oh-oh   Oh-oh-oh-oh
          Bbmaj7 Dm/A
I'm doing fine,  me on my
