[Intro]
C Dm F C Am F
C Dm F C Am F
[Verse 1]
C F
Jed punched him in the parking lot
C F
He trembled as his face kissed the floor
C Am F
Masculinity seems to hurt a lot
C Am F
The first time that you feel it in your jaw
[Interlude]
C Dm F C Am F
C Dm F C Am F
[Verse 2]
C Dm F
Mr. Ball expressed nail polish was for girls
C Dm F
Confessed it right in front of the class
C Dm F
So he stood by the fence as the clouds threw up and wept
C Dm F
Trying to chew off both his hands
[Pre-Chorus]
Am G
You don’t want to lie
F
No, you don’t want to lie anymore
Am G F
About things that make you sad
N.C.
Things that drive you mad
[Chorus]
C Dm F
The boy in the black dress
C Am F
How I hate him, I hate him, I hate him, I wish he was dead
C Dm F
The boy in the black dress
C Am F
How I hate him, I hate him, I hate him, tell all of your friends
Dm F
To drown him in misery
[Verse 3]
C Am F
Nikki laughed and ran down the stairs
C Dm F
Told tales about casual sex
C Am F
Waltzing around in her underwear
C Dm F
She taught him things he’d never forget
C F
Those wholesome things he’d never forget
[Pre-Chorus]
Am G
You don’t want to lie
F
No, you don’t want to lie anymore
Am G F
About why you feel so bad
Am G
You don’t want to lie
F
No, you don’t want to lie anymore
Am G F
About things that make you sad
N.C.
Things that drive you mad
[Chorus]
C Dm F
The boy in the black dress
C Am F
How I hate him, I hate him, I hate him, I wish he was dead
C Dm F
The boy in the black dress
C Am F
How I hate him, I hate him, I hate him, tell all of your friends
Dm F
To drown him in misery
[Interlude]

[Outro]
C Dm F
He tried to erase him by 24
C Dm F
Because now he can’t walk out the door
C Dm F
They all think he lied, but the lord knows he tried
C Dm F
To be something that they all would adore
C Dm
They hate what he is
F
And they hate what he’s not
C Dm F
But hate is nothing new you will see
C Dm
From the grave to the cot
F
How I wish that I forgot
C Dm F
That the boy in the black dress is me
