At times he will do something funny during an E chord, what he is doing is just removing his ring finger and
replacing it to switch back and fourth from an E7 chord using the open D string
[Verse 1]
Am
You see me with your eyes
I wear a good disguise
E
But somehow you still think you know me
Am
My life is empty now
My heart is blackened out
E
But I gotta fit in
Am
I also gotta be honest with myself before I kill somebody else
E
This world has done a number on me
Am
Compassion is devoid
I'm always so annoyed
E
my selfishness, it now consumes me
[Prechorus]
F G Am
But that's okay 'cause no one seems to recognize me anyway
F G Am
I'm mistaken for somebody else constantly throughout my day
F G Am F E
I won't get caught 'cause no one knows, that I'm an American psycho
[Verse 2]
Am
I know what brand you wear
I know what kind of pair
E
Of pants and shoes and shirts you have on
Am
I dine expensively, with a hard body next to me
E
but she likely won't see your next thought
[Prechorus]
F G Am
But that's okay 'cause no one seems to recognize me anyway
F G Am
I'm mistaken for somebody else constantly throughout my day
F G Am F E
I won't get caught 'cause no one knows, that I'm an American psycho
F E
That I'm an American psycho
[Chorus]
F Am
It's so sad, we only seem to care
E
About our face and hair
Am
And what makes us look good
F
Your business card is better
Am
You have a bigger room
E
That could lead to your doom
Am
And I really think it should
F E
Did you make it to the top of the world just to die?
[Verse 3]
Am
I own all the name brands
I have a nicer tan
E
I exercise and work out daily
Am
I rent some videos
Watch the Patty Winter show
E
My mind it thinks irrationally
[Prechorus]
F G Am
But that's okay 'cause no one seems to recognize me anyway
F G Am
I'm mistaken for somebody else constantly throughout my day
F G Am F E
I won't get caught 'cause no one gives a damn, that I'm an American psycho
F E
That I'm an American psycho
[Chorus]
F Am
It's so sad, we only seem to care
E
About our face and hair
Am
And what makes us look good
F
Your business card is better
Am
You have a bigger room
E
that could lead to your doom
Am
And I really think it should
F E
Did you make it to the top of the world just to die?
[Chorus]
F Am
It's so sad, we only seem to care
E
About our face and hair
Am
And what makes us look good
F
Your business card is better
Am
You have a bigger room
E
That could lead to your doom
Am
And I really think it should
F E
Did you make it to the top of the world just to die?
F E
Did you make it to the top of the world just to die?
F E
Oh, did you make it to the top of the world just to die?
E
You're gonna die!
