C                  Fmaj7         
'Cause he told the jokes in hopes
                 C
 to cover up his pain
            Fmaj7               
All he ever wanted was to fit in 
          C
with the crowd
                Fmaj7              
Though he never did, the crowd 
                    C
would become a familiar sound

[Pre-Chorus]
            Fmaj7             C
He couldn't see all that he'd become
                Fmaj7              
And in times of weakness, strength 
      C
would come
           Fmaj7
He planted seeds, but watered weeds
        C                     Dm  
It only left him thirsty, but I'm 
      C       G
all I need to succeed

[Chorus]
C                    Fmaj7       
I was searching in a landfill for
              C
 authenticity
         Fmaj7
Oh- oo- oo, ay-ay-ay
C                      
I was smelling plastic roses, 
Fmaj7                      C    
expecting something sweet
Fmaj7  C


[Verse 2]
            Fmaj7                  
Nobody ever thought much of the sad
             C
 boy writing songs
                    Fmaj7       
'Cause it takes the trophies and 
                            C
green paper till they tag along
               Fmaj7             
When he had no voice, nobody even 
          C
knew his name
                  Fmaj7            
But in five years time, they'll all
                           C
 claim that fat kid in 5th grade

[Chorus]
C                    Fmaj7       
I was searching in a landfill for
             C    Fmaj7
 authenticity

Oh-oh-oh, ooh-ooh-ooh
C                      
I was smelling plastic roses, 
Fmaj7                      C     
expecting something sweet
Fmaj7

C                            
But sometimes searching in a 
Fmaj7
landfill is exactly what you need
