[Verse]
Abmaj7 Bb7
I wanna stay inside forever
Gm7 Db C7
In that worn-out yellow sweater
Fm7 Bb7 Ebmaj7 Eb7
The warmth I used to feel is still there (still there…)
Abmaj7 Bb7
Heavy sighs like clouds surround me
Gm7b5 C7
Why do they feel so lonely?
Fm7 Bb7
I can’t pretend to care
[Chorus]
Abmaj7 G7#5
I’m trying to be happy
Cm7 Bbm7 Eb7 Abmaj7
I’m trying to find a way in this unrelenting world
G7#5 Cm7 Bb7 Eb
Where I promised that I would stay
Eb7 Abmaj7 G7#5
I’ll figure it out, then you’ll see
Cm7 F7
I’m everything I ever claimed to be
Fm7 Eb Abm7 Db7
Smile through the dark, to the sky, laugh away
[Bridge]
Cm7
Never thought I’d put my phone down
Eb
Suffocating in a bubble, who’s wearing the crown?
Abmaj7
Everyone’s looking for the next big thing
G7#5 Fm7
While I’m still so lost in a closing ring of faces (the faceless)
Ebmaj7
The shameless (a sad mess)
Abmaj7 G7#9 G7b9 Cm7 Bb
Constantly walking an endless road to the moon, to the stars
Abmaj7 Ebmaj7
And I hope to God you get far
Fm7 Eb
An eternity’s too long to stay on the stage
Dm7 G7#9 G7b9
When will I turn the next page?
[Verse]
Abmaj7 Bb7
Let me stay inside forever
Gm7 Db C7
In that worn-out yellow sweater
Fm7 Bb7
When will the colors fade?
Ebmaj7 Eb7
This pretty, pretty palette of dull shades
Abmaj7 Bb7
What’s the definition of a good friend?
Gm7b5 C7
It’s hard to tell in this mad race to the end
Fm7 Bb7
Can I live so unafraid?
[Chorus]
Abmaj7 G7#5
I’m trying to be happy
Cm7 Bbm7 Eb7 Abmaj7
I’m trying to find a way in this unrelenting world
G7#5 Cm7 Bb7 Eb
Where I promised that I would stay
Eb7 Abmaj7 G7#5
I’ll figure it out, then you’ll see
Cm7 F7
I’m everything I ever claimed to be
Fm7 Eb Abm7 Db7
Smile through the dark, to the sky, laugh away
