[Verso 1]
 
     G              G             G         C 
That hoodie was the best thing to happen to me 
                            D              Em 
Like the one thing that you salvage from a house fire 
         G                 Gmaj7                 G           Bm   C 
When you dropped me at her house 'cause I'm just too much to deal with 
        Em                   D           C 
I'm the last kid that should be around a lighter 
    G              Gmaj7          G              Bm C 
And lying's such a chore, but the truth feels so wrong 
                 D                       Em 
And every turn I make just keeps me from getting where I want 
         G            Gmaj7  G              C 
But when I confide in her, I tear apart the earth 
        Em           D                C 
There's somebody who has it ten times worse 
        G                                       Bm C 
There's no time left to pity and I see it in my friends 
                          D          Em 
And they all look so much older than me 
      G                 Gmaj7    G                 Bm          Em                    D                    C 
But tonight I'm feeling brave, I think I'll act my age until a kid says that there's something wrong with me 
 


[Refrão]
 
    Am             Bm          C 
And sometimes the smoke smells good 
          G                     D        Am Bm C 
Leave the window open when it's freezing co---ld 
  Em D 
I know 
         Am           Bm C            G                   D 
When you left me home alone, when you left for your award show 
  Am                Bm C                  Em D 
I ditched you guys and died, laid in the snow 
 


[Verso 2]
 
      G        Gmaj7 
Spent too many nights 
G           Bm          C          D           Em 
Pinching my sides wondering if I'm living in a dream 
       G                 Gmaj7 
When I don't know who to ask 
  G                    Bm          Em              D               C 
I think that I'll just pass, like, maybe I'll just figure it out myself 
      G                     G         Bm 
Butterflies inside me, they turn into tapeworms 
      C     D              Em 
And I stay awake 'till my stomach hurts 
   G                    G            Bm 
So when it's 4 AM and I can't eat anything 
          Em              D            C 
I'll wake up too late and get what I deserve 
 


[Verso 3]
 
N.C.  Am Bm   C                   G                     D 
And I know, I told you two weeks, but it's been seventeen years 
       Am Bm     C                     Em   D 
And every time I sing they close their ears 
     Am  Bm    C          G                   D 
It's all in my head, it's cheesy but it's true 
     Am        Bm        C        Em D 
If I could, I'd blame it all on you 
          Am     Bm  C         G 
Sometimes I'd try to talk, and nothing comes out 
  D         Am  Bm  C             Em                 D 
And most of my memories aren't how  they really were 
     Am       Bm    C            G                 D 
I'm slipping on the line, I'm confused all the time 
         Am          Bm   C                        Em  D 
When you go to claim your bags, don't claim what's mine

And sometimes the smoke smells good 
          G                 Bm           C D 
Leave the window open when it's freezing cold 
  Em 
I know 
         G            Gmaj7           G                 Bm 
When you left me home alone, when you left for your award show 
  Em                   D                 C 
I ditched you guys and died, laid in the snow

[Verso 4]
 
  G               Gmaj7        G               Bm 
I have this funny dream that I moved to Bombay Beach 
          C           D           Em 
And I'm never seen or heard from again 
              G             Gmaj7           G             Bm 
Won't have to watch out for sharks swimming in the Salton Sea 
     Em                   D    C               C 
Even though I'm more than sure   that one just bit me 
         G               Gmaj7            G             Bm 
And I've been performing poorly, but it's so hard to be honest 
           C                D             Em 
She's been threatening that I go get some help 
       G            Gmaj7                       Bm 
When I picture your face it comes up as someone else 
Em                       N.C.     G 
Someone who's treated me the same way
