Db5                      F      
Every bite just kept me glued to my 
Gb
seat
Db5       F      Gb
I worried, even cried
Bbm
How'd it feel to take the
C5           Db5
Light from my life?
Db         F    Gb
Bad habit, even worse
Db           F         Gb
50/50, I'm a sucker for looks
Db            F     Gb
Asked for it, here it is
Bbm                       C5     
A quick example 'cause you wanted
     Db5
 the hits

               Db5                 
I think you're scared of being 
 F  Gb  Db5
basic
                            F
That’s ironic 'cause it's reading
    Gb               Db5   F  Gb
Like you're even more basic
Bbm                  C5    Db5
It's not funny, it's so funny
             Db     F  Gb
'Cause you're basic
Db                         
Just looking hot and keeping 
  F
monotone
    Gb          Db
And understated nothingness

Won’t change it
F  Gb
(Good luck with that, good luck with
 what?)
Bbm               C5            Db5

Everyone has secrets, but not

Everyone can fool a man like that
Db5
It sent me reeling
F        Gb
Still not the same
Db5
It’s like my capacity
  F             Gb
To love and give has changed
Db5
I guess I'll thank you
    F               Gb
And spite your name again
    Bbm
The past's the past, and I'll 
outlast
   C                      Db5
The hate to find real love that's 
not pretend

[Estribillo]

laugh as is
