[Intro] E G A Am
[Verse 1]
E G A Am E G A Am
Julian is gonna take my files
C
Every woman that I’ve slept with,
A Am
every friendship I’ve neglected,
C
didn’t call when grandma died,
A Am
I spent my money getting drunk and high
C
I’ve done things unprotected,
A Am
proceeded to drive home wasted,
C
bought things to win over siblings -
A Am C
I’ve said awful things, such awful things
[Chorus]
A Am C
and now, now it’s out
There!
A Am
and now, now it’s out
E G A Am (x2)
[Verse 2]
E G A Am E G A Am
Julian, he’s gonna take my files
C
Telling people jokes to shut them up,
A Am
resenting people that I love,
C
sleep in til two then doing shit,
A Am
just stay in bed and later lie about it,
C
obsessing over graying hair,
A Am
knowing just what people wanna hear,
C
binging on unearned attention -
A Am C
I’ve said awful things, such awful things
A Am C
and now, now it’s out
There!
[Chorus]
A Am C
and now, now it’s out
[Verse 3]
C
I came by at seven in the morning
A Am
seven in the morning, seven in the morning
C
I came by at seven in the morning
A Am
I said, baby, I’m finally succumbing
C
said something dumb like I’m tired of running
A Am
tired of running, tired of running
C
Let’s put a baby in the oven -
A Am
wouldn’t I make the ideal husband?
E G A Am (x4)
End on E
