[Chorus]
F C
I'm on my hands and knees begging you to kiss me
Am G
When I'm not around, do you even miss me?
F Em
I'm so tired of having self-respect
Dm C
Let's do something I'll regret
[Verse 1]
F
Good morning, my strangest twin
C
I've changed the locks and let the right one in
Am
I still hide, I still tumbleweed
G F
But lost see lost and I've been quiet screams
All black, white and blue
C
All echo trails and nonstick glue
Dm
Well, the Binsons go "vroom" and the bastards go "yawn"
G
I'm out here on my own, fuck it, I'm going long
[Chorus]
F C
I'm on my hands and knees begging you to kiss me
Am G
When I'm not around, do you even miss me?
F Em
I'm so tired of having self-respect
Dm C
Let's do something I'll regret
[Verse 2]
F
I think it was the day that Kobe fell from the sky
C
Or the day that Kendall Pepsi-smiled
Am
Or the day that I had held her last
G
These days of our lives, they're rough and they're fast and unfair
F
And held together by a paper clasp
C
And they're drenched in a moment past
Dm
And they're only known when somebody is gone
G
Well, the years move fast, but the dread goes hard
[Chorus]
F C
I'm on my hands and knees begging you to kiss me
Am G
When I'm not around, do you even miss me?
F Em
I'm so tired of having self-respect
Dm C
Let's do something I'll regret
[Bridge]
F
Well, the crowd goes wild
C
Yeah, the crowd goes wild
Am
For the burning of witches or the killing of kings
G F
When the crowd goes wild, everybody sings
"I was holy once
C
Oh, I loved you once"
Dm
Destroyed somebody's life as a means of sayin'
G
"I'm still here and I'm still playin'"
