Biography:
Courtney Barnett is an Australian singer/songwriter originally from Sydney, New South Wales; later moving to Hobart, Tasmania[/placeform] where she began performing music in 2006 before relocating to Melbourne in 2010.
Barnett puts a lot of effort into sounding effortless. Her songs are wild and wooly and wordy, her lyrics plainspoken and delivered like she’s making them up on the spot.
Barnett was originally a part of several bands, including Immigrant Union and The Olivettes before focusing on her solo work.

Intro: E5 A5 D5 B5 }x2
Verse 1:
E5 A5 D5 B5
Tell me when you're getting bored and I'll leave
E5 A5 D5 B5
I'm not the one who put the chain around your feet
E5 A5 D5 B5 E5 A5 D5 B5
I'm sorry for all of my insecurities, but it's just a part of me
E5 A5 D5 B5
"Envy is thin because it bites but never eats"
E5 A5 D5 B5
That's what a nice old Spanish lady once told me
E5 A5 D5 B5 E5 A5 E5
"Hey Debbie-Downer turn that frown upside down and just be happy"
Pre-Chorus 1:
G#5 A5
I don't ask too much of you
G#5 A5 B5
It's true and I can't read your mind
Chorus 1:
E5 D5 A5 B5 E5 D5 A5 B5
Don't stop listening, I'm not finished yet
E5 D5 A5 B5 E5 D5 A5 B5
I'm not fishing for your compliments
Verse 2:
E5 A5 D5 B5
I'm growing older every time I blink my eyes
E5 A5 D5 B5
Boring, neurotic, everything that I despise
E5 A5 D5 B5 E5 A5 D5 B5
We had some lows, we had some mids, we had some highs
E5 A5 D5 B5
Sell me all your golden rules and I'll see
E5 A5 D5 B5
If that's the kind of person that I wanna be
E5 A5 D5 B5 E5 A5 E5
If I'm not happy I'll be glad I kept receipts
Pre-Chorus 2:
G#5 A5
I won't ask too much of you
G#5 A5 B5
I used to wonder what to wear
Last chorus:
E5 D5 A5 B5 E5 D5 A5 B5
Don't stop listening, I'm not finished yet
E5 D5 A5 B5 E5 D5 A5 B5
I'm not fishing for your compliments
