Verse 1
B
I saw the TV glow, I

I'm in the eighth grade

Sending grown men grainy photos

Of my ribcage

My bedroom has no door, so

I can never close 'em

I paint the ceiling black so I don't notice
                       E
When my eyes are open

I paint the ceiling black so I don't notice
                      B
When my eyes are open

Verse 2
B
And somewhere south of Tallahassee

A teenage boy with a summer job

He's driving grown men around a golf course
                                     E
He's going home to a manicured lawn
                                        B    B#m
And digging holes in his manicured lawn

Bridge
G#m   F#

                    B
I think I was born bored
                    D#m
I think I was born blue
                            G#m
I think I was born wanting more
                    F#7                 F#
I think I was born already missing you

B  F#  C#
Ooh, ooh-ooh

         E              C#
But my heart is like a claw machine
       F#         D#7
Its only function is to reach
    G#m             E  F#  B
It can't hold on to a-ny-thing
      E                Em   B
No I can't hold on to any-thing

D#m G# F#

Verse 3
                         B
My best friend started driving
               D#m
Never went to class
                      G#
The worst part of the car crash was
   A            E
Talking to her dad
F#
I said I wasn't scared

But I was thinking it
     D#
You know it's a mistake
         G#m          D#    E
When it's me who was making it

It's always the wrong thing
          Em               B
When it's me who's saying it

D#m
Gm
