Am
Keep kind words up out your mouth
            F
Throw their name in the mud
           E
Now you're heading south
Am
Don't let them see your face
  F                               E
A facade's what you need for the fame
(E)
So blame the game


[Pre-Chorus]
Am
All of these petty things
Am
Everything you want it seems
F               E
Trusting far as you can throw her
Am
Give a bit, take a lot
Am
Give it everything you got it
F               E
Worth every bit of exposure

F             Ab
All curtains drawn
           Am      G              F      Em
A stage of smog is setting up the scene
F          G                   Adim           (E)
Your final call won't blackout all the fake I see


[Chorus]
Am G    F                 C    Em
I never meant to fit this mold
Am  G      F              C    Em
I'm simply doing what I'm told
F              G
Painted up and watered down
     Em                    Am
To a shell that's hollowed out
F        Em                   Am
Before I knew I became one of them

Am Am Am

Am
Woah-oh, one of them

Am Am Am


[Verse 2]
Am
Pull every string attached
F
Verify all the tropes
         E
Ain't no turning back
Am
From your point of no return
F                           E
Make a habit to cross every bridge that you burned


[Pre-Chorus]
Am
All of these petty things
Am
Lambo's and your shiny rings
F            E
Go as far as you can throw it
Am
Give a bit take a lot
Am
Fill your cup it's not enough
F                E
Heart's on E and we both know it

F            Ab
All curtains drawn
           Am      G              F      Em
A stage of smog is setting up the scene (is setting up the scene)
F          G                   Ab             Em
Your final call won't blackout all the fake I see


[Chorus]
Am G    F                 C    (Em)
I never meant to fit this mold
Am  G      F              C    (Em)
I'm simply doing what I'm told
F              G
Painted up and watered down
     Em                    Am  (G)
To a shell that's hollowed out
F        Em            Am
Before I knew I became one of them

Am Am Am

Am
Woah-oh, one of them

Am Am Am


[Bridge]
Am
You swear your name holds so much weight and all demand
Am
So what's it like to live life as your own biggest fan? (Must be nice!)

E
But on and on, it comes around (Yeah)
E
Congrats on your new love you found
E
In love with every single sound
E
And word that's coming out your mouth


[Chorus]
Am G    F                 C     (Em)
I never meant to fit this mold
Am  G      F              C     (Em)
I'm simply doing what I'm told
F              G
Painted up and watered down
     E                     Am   (G)
To a shell that's hollowed out
F        E             Am
Before I knew I became one of them

Am Am Am

Am
One of them
