[Verse 1]
D Em D A
Sixteen years looking up at the blackboard
Bm D Em D A
I don't even know how to read
Bm D Em D A Bm
I got pills to make the hamster wheels turn faster
D Em D A
But the monkey's in the driver's seat
[Pre-chorus]
Bm D Em D A Bm
And now I tear myself apart about everything at once
D Em D A
I miss my good old lack of self esteem
Bm D Em D A Bm
You can take out the wax and tie me to the mast
D Em D A
I gotta hear the sirens scream
F#
Don't listen to me
G
I just need a good night's sleep
[Chorus]
A D
And you keep me up all night
A D A
Can't talk right
D G
I'm falling into my clothes
A D
And even though I'm feeling like death
A D A
I can't be upset
D G
Cause I finally know
Em A F#m Bm
Em A G
[Verse 2]
D Em D A
You can document the teenage wildlife
Bm D Em D A
Psychoanalyze the modern man
Bm D Em D A
You can classify 'em all by blood type
Bm D Em D A
But you're never gonna understand
[Pre-chorus]
D Em D A
What if panic were the right reaction
Bm D Em D A
To the anno domini milieu
Bm D Em D A
I'm too sleepy for the main distraction
Bm D Em D A
Downtown lights could never glow like you
F#
I'm going to sleep
[Chorus]
A D
And you keep me up all night
A D A
Can't talk right
D G
I'm falling into my clothes
A D
And even though I'm feeling like death
A D A
I can't be upset
D G
Cause I finally know
[Post-chorus]
Em A
I don't want to be an animal oh no
F#m Bm
But you're making this hard for me
Em A
But I don't want to be an animal oh no
G
But you don't wanna go
[Chorus]
A D
And you keep me up all night
A D A
Can't talk right
D G
I'm falling into my clothes
A D
And even though I'm feeling like death
A D A
I can't be upset
D G F G F G
Cause I finally know
F G F G
Cause I finally know
F G F G
Cause I finally know
F G F G
You'll finally know
