Capo: 2nd fret
[Verse 1]
B7 E7
Trains keep running
A F#7
Hearts keep breaking
B7 E7 A F#7
I keep writing songs
B7 E7
About things that are out of my control
A F#7
But I pretend they’re not
B7
And then wonder why
E7 A F#7
The outcome’s not what I planned for
[Chorus]
B7
Oh, ‘cause lately
E7 A
I tend to answer with “maybe”
F#7 B7
‘Cause commitment seems so scary
E7 A
And I miss just being bored
F#7
(Bored, bored, bored, bored, bored)
B7
I swear, baby
E7 A
I’m not the one that’s crazy
F#7 B7
You say that I’m too picky
E7 A
But there’s too much on my plate
F#7
(Plate, plate, plate, plate, plate)
[Verse 2]
B7 E7
I’ve never been the one to spend hours together
A F#7 B7
I love my friends but I like silence even better and
E7 A
I love my parents but I can’t keep all my promises, yeah
B7 E7
Maybe I should start thinking less
A F#7
Live my life how it fits me best
B7 E7 A F#7
Cut off all the ones who cannot comprehend that
B7 E7 A F#7
Maybe, I’m not doing well
B7 E7 A F#7
And maybe, it’s not about them (No, no, no)
[Chorus]
B7
Oh, ‘cause lately
E7 A
I tend to answer with “maybe”
F#7 B7
‘Cause commitment seems so scary
E7 A
And I miss just being bored
F#7
(Bored, bored, bored, bored, bored)
B7
I swear, baby
E7 A
I’m not the one that’s crazy
F#7 B7
You say that I’m too picky
E7 A
But there’s too much on my plate
F#7
(Plate, plate, plate, plate, plate)
[Outro]
B7
Here’s my promise
E7 A
To myself and whoever is bothered
F#7 B7
By the fact that I don’t know how to say “Yes” or “No”
E7 A F#7
That I need control and that I cannot just let it go, so
B7
I promise
E7
I’ll take the pills that you feed me
A
I promise
F#7 B7
I’ll let go of the parts of myself that I like
E7
I’ll be focused and nice
A F#7
Perfect slave to the system we’re in
