[Verse 1]
Eb Bb Cm7
I swear to God I wasn’t born to fight
Eb7 Abmaj7 Fm7b5
Maybe just a little bit, enough to make me sick of it
Eb Bb Cm7
But I-I-I-I can read between the lines
Eb7 Abmaj7
I want to run from everything
Fm7b5
But my legs won’t work, it’s clear to me

[Chorus]
Eb Bb Cm7
I-I-I-I haven’t been much myself
Eb7 Abmaj7 Fm7b5
And I feel like my friends are being put through this hell
Eb Bb Cm7
Feeling, I think that I’m living, if you could call it living

So brash and unforgiven
Fm7b5
Ruled by the vibe I’m bringing

Serving myself

The timing’s poor I know it’s never right

Still I breathe a sigh
Eb7 Abmaj7
It doesn’t seem so lucky now

Maybe I can figure out

Eb Bb Cm7
Why-y-y-y I haven’t been much myself

And I feel like my friends are being put through this hell
