[Intro]
Cm F Ab Bb Bdim x2

[Verse 1]
Cm F
   Never was a fan
        Ab
 of the internet
    Bb         Bdim
She never felt safe in
      Cm
her own head
        F             Ab
We both hate the news
            Bb
The feel of grace,
      Bdim        Cm
 oh god, goes you

F
Slapped me when
               Ab
 I ask if shes bored yet
Bb           Bdim          Cm
Wonder if we took it too far
        F             Ab
We both taste of used
            Bb      Bdim
Oh darling, what am I to do
[Pre-chorus]
Cm     Bb                 Eb
   I'd like to think that I'm
         Eb                 Cm
The only guy she'll see tonight
        Bb               Eb
You can call me what you like
   Ab
As long as you call me

[Chorus]
            Cm
And you can kiss the
             Bb
skin under my lips
                Ab         Eb
if it makes you feel good
     F
I'm not sure if you want it,
     F                    Ab
I'm not sure if you need me too
            Cm
And you can taste the
          Bb
beer on every guy
              Ab  Eb
who talks to you
        F
But you can't stay
awake forever,
       Ab
No you can't stay
           Bb
awake forever

[Instrumental]
Cm F Ab Bb Bdim x2

[Verse 2]
Cm     F
   And so I find
                 Ab
myself in your mum's
bedroom
Bb                Bdim
Fighting with the pink
             Cm
rubber blinds
        F            Ab
It's on pay-per-view
           Bb
Place your bets on this
 Bdim         Cm
lost end line

    F
You take a pirouette
        Ab
under his bedstand
Bb               Bdim
Silent, probably pitch
           Cm
 him a sigh
        F
I'm not made for you,
         Ab
But what else is new
            Bb
Unless she tells me
           Bdim
 that it's nothing
  Bdim
I really hope its nothing

[Chorus]
        Cm
You can kiss the skin
        F
under my lips if it
          Ab        Eb
makes you feel good
     F
I'm not sure if you want it
     F                     Ab

[Bridge]
Cm             F
 This just in:
Ab            Bb
I am a total fucking dumbass
 Cm
And I've come to
the uncomfortable
   F
conclusion
I'll be spending the
            Ab
rest of my life in
           Bb
a state of constant paranoia
           Cm          F
Just let me follow you
                    Ab
And I'll proceed to bump
my head on every
         Bb
doorway and doorframe
               Cm
 you go through

And I've found that
     F
the road to happiness
   Ab
Is paved with roads of
 Bb
 very tempting
parking spaces

Cm F
   I'm not paranoid,
               Ab
I'm a realist
Bb                  Bdim
I know you're gonna kill me

[Chorus]
        Cm
You can kiss the skin
        F
under my lips if it
          Ab        Eb
makes you feel good
     F
I'm not sure if you want it
     F                     Ab
I'm not sure if you need me too
            Cm
And you can taste the
          F
beer on every guy
              Ab  Eb
who talks to you
        F
But you can't stay
 awake forever
       Ab                  Bb
No you can't stay awake forever

            Cm
And you can kiss the
             F
skin under my lips
                Ab        Eb
if it makes you feel good
     F
I'm not sure if you want it
     F
I'm not sure if you
        Ab   Bb
need me too
            Cm
And you can taste the
          F
 beer on every guy
              Ab  Eb
who talks to you
        F
But you can't stay awake,
You can't stay awake
       Ab
No you can't stay awake
     Bb     Cm
forever
