[Intro]
Em D C G x4
[Verse 1]
Em D C
I’m caught up in an every day trend
G
Tied up on invisible thread
Em D
Walking down on razors, been edged
C G
And I wake up tired, think I’m better off
dead
Em D
Been a few months since I crossed all the
C
state lines
C G
Talked to my mom, fake smiles are for
Facetime
Em D
Drink all night and I can’t hear all the
C
street lies
G
Feel so low but I’m high at the same time
[Pre-Chorus]
G D C
I can’t keep my feet on the ground
G D C
And I’m nervous what you think of me now
G D C
I’m hoping that someone comes around
D Em G C
And helps me figure it out
[Chorus]
Em D C
I think that I should try to kill my ego
G
Em D C
‘Cause if I don’t, my ego might kill me
G
Em D
I’m all grown up but somehow lately
C G
I’m acting like a fucking baby
Em D C G
I’m really not as happy as I seem
[Verse 2]
Em*
I’m still a little kid that can’t make
friends
C* G
Wanna be invited but I won’t pretend
Em D
I’ve been having bad dreams my career could
end
C
Because I slipped my point, I should’ve
G
played pretend
Em D
I turned eighteen and I left the city
C G
I said, “I wanna be cool, I don’t wanna be
pretty”
Em D
Voices all came crashing down
C G
Said, “You’re too nice to run this town”
[Pre-Chorus]
G D C
I can’t keep my feet on the ground
G D C
And I’m nervous what you think of me now
G D C
I’m hoping that someone comes around
D Em G C
And helps me figure it out
[Chorus]
Em D C
I think that I should try to kill my ego
G
Em D C
‘Cause if I don’t, my ego might kill me
G
Em D
I’m all grown up but somehow lately
C G
I’m acting like a fucking baby
Em D C
I’m really not as happy as I seem
G Em D C G
Nothing’s as it seems
Em D C G
No, nothing’s as it seems
Em D
And I’m all grown up but somehow, lately
C G
I’m acting like a fucking baby
Em D C G
I’m really not that happy being me
[Bridge]
Em D
I don’t like the lie I’m livin’
C G
Way too nice and too forgiving
Em D
Wanna go back to the beginning
C G
When it all felt right
Em D
A rooftop on the Eastside, I’m singing
C G
Didn’t really give a fuck if I was winning
Em D
It’s all gone now, who am I kidding?
C*
I’m doing way worse than I’m admitting!
[Chorus]
Em D C
I think that I should try to kill my ego
G
Em D C
‘Cause if I don’t, my ego might kill me
G
Em D
I’m all grown up but somehow lately
C G
I’m acting like a fucking baby
Em D C G
I’m really not as happy as I seem
G Em D C G
Nothing’s as it seems (as it seems, as it
seems)
Em D C G
No, nothing’s as it seems
Em D
And I’m all grown up but somehow, lately
C G
I’m acting like a fucking baby
Em D C
I’m really not that happy being me
