[Verse 1]
A E Bsus4 C#m
I have this thing where I get older, but just never wiser
A E Bsus4 C#m
Midnights become my afternoons
A E Bsus4 C#m
When my depression works the graveyard shift, all of the people
A E Bsus4 C#m
I’ve ghosted stand there in the room

[Post-Chorus]
A E Bsus4
I should not be left to my own devices
C#m A
They come with prices and vices
E
I end up in crisis
Bsus4 C#m
Tale as old as time
A E Bsus4
I wake up screaming from dreaming
C#m A
One day, I’ll watch as you’re leaving
E Bsus4
‘Cause you got tired of my scheming
C#m
For the last time

[Chorus]
A E
It’s me, hi
Bsus4 C#m
I’m the problem, it’s me
A E Bsus4 C#m
At teatime, everybody agrees
A E Bsus4 C#m
I’ll stare directly at the sun, but never in the mirror
A E Bsus4 C#m
It must be exhausting always rooting for the antihero

[Interlude]
A E Bsus4 C#m

[Verse 2]
A E Bsus4 C#m
Sometimes, I feel like everybody is a sexy baby
A E Bsus4 C#m
And I’m a monster on the hill
A E Bsus4 C#m
Too big to hang out, slowly lurching toward your favorite city
A E Bsus4 C#m
Pierced through the heart, but never killed

[Pre-Chorus]
A E Bsus4 C#m A
Did you hear my covert narcissism I disguise as altruism
E Bsus4
Like some kind of congressman?
C#m
A tale as old as time
A E Bsus4
I wake up screaming from dreaming
C#m A
One day, I’ll watch as you’re leaving
E Bsus4
And life will lose all its meaning
C#m
For the last time

[Chorus]
A E
It’s me, hi
Bsus4 C#m
I’m the problem, it’s me
A E Bsus4 C#m
At teatime, everybody agrees
A E Bsus4 C#m
I’ll stare directly at the sun, but never in the mirror
A E Bsus4 C#m
It must be exhausting always rooting for the antihero

[Interlude]
A E Bsus4 C#m

[Verse 3]
A E Bsus4 C#m
I have this dream my daughterinlaw kills me for the money
A E Bsus4 C#m
She thinks I left them in the will
A E Bsus4 C#m
The family gathers around and reads it And then
someone screams out
A E Bsus4 C#m
“She’s laughing up at us from hell”

[Bridge]
A E
It’s me, hi
Bsus4 C#m
I’m the problem, it’s me
A E
It’s me, hi
Bsus4 C#m
I’m the problem, it’s me
A E
It’s me, hi
Bsus4 C#m A E
Everybody agrees, everybody agrees
Bsus4 C#m A E
It’s me, hi

[Chorus]
Bsus4 C#m
I’m the problem, it’s me
A E Bsus4 C#m
At teatime, everybody agrees
A E Bsus4 C#m
I’ll stare directly at the sun, but never in the mirror
A E Bsus4 C#m
It must be exhausting always rooting for the antihero

[Outro]
A E Bsus4
