Bah-da-da-dum-bum-bum-bum-ba-da-da-bum-bum-ba-da-da-dah


[Verse 1]
       F                 C                 Bb              F
I was hoping that maybe we could love each other until we die
         F                         C                 Bb                        F
But I'm learning that life doesn't give a shit about us and I'm done asking why
        F                   C                 Bb                F
When I wake up at night in my coffin and it's time to go get a bite
    F                          C                                Bb                      F
I'm thankful you left when you did, there was something in your life that just wasn't right

Alright

My habits are getting weirder, I've been drinking the blood from the mice that I feed
        F                    C                         Bb                    F
But I'm working my way up to human beings, that's what healthy bloodsuckers need
     F                C                       Bb                     F
I'm sorry for all the lack of support, well I guess I forgot how to love
        F                        C                      Bb                  C
I don't blame you these days for letting me go, when my pushes all came to shove


[Chorus]
         Bb               C                        F              Bb
But I'll stop pretending that I'm something I was never meant to be
          Dm                             A
It wasn't fulfilling me, darling, it was killing me
    Bb               C             F                  Bb
I'm turning myself into something that's perfect for me
    Dm                           A
I'm learning lessons as I live, you want to get, you got to give
    F               F               Bb         Bb
You really want it, you have got to fight
  Dm              C               F
I think I'll be a creature of the night


F                C                 Bb                F

I'm sick of this town I've been sticking around for too long, I gotta leave
       F                        C                        Bb                        F
In the mornings I wake up and I can't get happy and when night falls I can't even breathe
           F                      C                         Bb                            F
'Cause the menacing conflict that plagues my mind from the shit that's never happened to me
    F                           C                            Bb                      F
I'm striken by guilt, God won't leave me alone, she finds my soffucation so goddamn funny
           F                             C                             Bb                 F
I'm always stressing out trying to think about fitting in, but my true colors inevitably show
       F                  C                    Bb                   F
I just wanna be something different from every other asshole named Joe
           F                                        C                              Bb                   F
I'm always workin' for purpose, something that will give meaning to the rest of my life that I may not live
           F                               C                     Bb                        F
I'm always passing out thinking about why I move my bowels But I just run out of shits to give

[Chorus]
         B               C                        F              Bb
But I'll stop pretending that I'm something I was never meant to be

It wasn't fulfilling me, darling, it was killing me

You really want it, you have got to fight
  Dm              C               F
I think I'll be a child of the night

F                         Bb
Stare, the hopelessness I felt
                    Dm
Tryin' not to think about
                     Bb
The last years of my life
     Bb       C     F
When I still had a wife
                       A
I've moved on to newer things
                    Dm
Embracing what life brings
                      Bb
As I'm waiting for my fangs
    D     C        F
And other stranger things
                 Bb                      Dm
I decided my own fate, and I can hardly wait
               Bb             Bb      C    F
I'm becoming myself, I don't need anyone else
                  A                          Dm
I'm coming like a flood, I'm living off your blood

And I'm making this my town, and taking you down
