[Intro] C  Em  Am  F

C
I'm 21

The edge is razor thin
Em
Between being numb
Am
And feeling everything
F
Good days only serve as relief again

C                   Em
Now I'm watching as I waste away my days

And then
Am
It’s a cross dissolve
F
It’s a scene I’ve played before
C                         Em
And the leading role that I thought I’d hold
Am                         F
Doesn’t listen to me anymore

        C
But I'm wearing his boxers
        Em
I'm being a good wife
        Am
We won’t be together
        F
But maybe the next life

        C
I need him like water
        Em
He lives on a landslide
        Am
I cry in his bathroom
        F
He turns off the big light
        C
I'm being the cool girl
        Em
I'm keeping it so tight
        Am
I carry home while
        F
My friends have a good night

  C
I need him like water
  Em
He thinks that I'm alright
  Am
I'm not feeling human
  F
I think he’s a good guy

         C
But it’s complex
         Em
It’s a complex
         Am
It’s a complex
         F
I'm a complex

   C
Triangular
   Em
I can see them now
   Am
Three points at which
   F
I let myself down
   C
I was just a girl
   Em
What’s the excuse now?

( Am  F )

    C
Too regular
    Em
This pattern
    Am
I’ve been taking shelter in
    F
Reaching new highs
    C
When I was 19
    Em
I wanted to die

( Am  F )

      C
Now I just want to kill you
      Em
But I don’t want to paint you the victim
      Am
And I talk a good game
      F
I’d die for you just the promise you’d listen

        C
But I'm wearing his boxers
        Em
I'm being a good wife
        Am
We won’t be together
        F
But maybe the next life

        C
I need him like water
        Em
He lives on a landslide
        Am
I cry in his bathroom
        F
He turns off the big light
        C
I'm being the cool girl
        Em
I'm keeping it so tight
        Am
I carry home while
        F
My friends have a good night

  C
I need him like water
  Em
He thinks that I'm alright
  Am
I'm not feeling human
  F
I think he’s a good guy

         C
But it’s complex
         Em
It’s a complex
         Am
It’s a complex
         F
I'm a complex
