Am
I try to be good to others
E7 Am
Treat my fellow men like brothers and sisters
E F
That’s the story I’m the hero in
E F
So how come I can’t zero in
E
On why this song sounds so sinister?
Oh my God
Am
I’m the villain in my own story
E7
I’m the witch in my own tale
Dm Am
Though I insist I’m the protagonist
B7 E
It’s clear that my soul is up for sale
Am
I’m the villain in my own story
E
The bad guy in my TV show
Dm
I’m the “who” in the “whodunit”
Am
When I go to hell I’ll run it
E Am
As Satan’s CFO
He needs someone to do the books
Actually, I shouldn’t do that
I’m terrible with money
Bbm
But wait, how am I a villain?
F7
I give annually to UNICEF
Gb F
And just last week
Gb F
I helped a lady cross the street
F7 Bbm
Who was super old and deaf
Wait, where am I?
Ah, a bird!
Bbm
I'm the villain in my own story
F
I’m the bitch in the corner of the poster
Ebm
I’m the figure in the doorway
Bbm
Or the Kraken up in Norway
F Bbm
God who is this song’s composer?
It’s like ridiculously sinister—like redunkuously sinister
Bm
I’m the villain in my own story
F#
My actions have gone way too far
Em Bm
I told myself that I was Jasmine
C#7 F#
But I realize now I’m Jafar
Bm
We’re told love conquers all
F#
But that only applies to the hero
Em Bm
Is the enemy what I’m meant to be?
F# Bm
Is being the villain my destiny?
