View chords used in this chart
There's a little lick at the beginning you just use your pinky on the first note, listen
to song it's easy to figure out
E A
binge drink all weekend and then crash with you on my couch
Bm
as all your bad thoughts sink in and you're afraid to leave them out
F#m D A Dbm
though I guess you're kinda tired of improving on yourself
F#m D Dbm
so quit before you're fired for your collapsing mental health
Bm A
that you can't help
E A
while you're staring at your sleeping three year old daughter
Bm
just remember she can't survive on Top Ramen and tap water
F#m D Dbm
so send her back to the factory where they make human beings
F#m D Dbm
her tiny crippled face will always haunt your vivid dreams
Bm Dbm Bm
until you're numb to humanity for what you've done
A D A E
like birthing blue flowers that line your hospital room
D E Bm A
except no one gives a shit if you get well soon or if you die
E A Bm F#m D Dbm F#m D Dbm Bm A
E A
so hear my tiny voice turning hoarse as I cry
Bm
that you've got to save yourself because it's not my place to try
F#m D Dbm
I'd tell you to fuck off if I didn't really care
F#m D Dbm
though I know deep in your heart that you are not beyond repair
Bm A
and I'm your wet blanket
