I said I think that [C] you're special
once [C] that I'm selfish
And I kissed you [G] hard
dark, in the closet
You said my [C] music is mellow
You think you're a good [G]
person
in the [F] stomach
once [C] that I'm selfish
And I kissed you [G] hard
dark, in the closet
You said my [C] music is mellow
You think you're a good [G]
person
in the [F] stomach

_ _ _ _ I said I think that [C] you're special
_ You told me once [C] that I'm selfish _
And I kissed you [G] hard
In the dark, _ in the closet
[F] _ _
You said my [C] music is mellow
_ And maybe I'm just [F] exhausted
_ _ _ You think you're a good [G]
person
Because you won't punch me in the [F] stomach _ _ _ _ _
And I _ _ _ love _ _ _ [C] you _ _ _
I [F] don't know why _
[Gm] _ I [A] just do, _ [Em] ooh
_ [D] _ But [F] _ _
you're [F] not [G] special, you're evil
[F] You don't get to tell [Em] me to calm down
_ [F] _ You made [C] me feel [G] like an equal
[D] But I'm better than [Am] you
And you [Em] should know [F] that by now
When you [C] fell [G] down the stairs
_ [F] _
It looked like it hurt
[Em] And I wasn't sorry
_ _ I should've [C] left [G] you right there
[F] With your hostages, [Am]
my [Em] heart, and my [F] car keys _
[C] You don't [G] know me
I wanna be [G] _ happy
I'm [F] ready to walk into my [C] room
Without [G] looking [Dm] for you
[F] I'll go up to the top [G] of our building
_ [Dm] And [F] remember my [Am] dog when I [Em] see the [C] full _ [F] moon _
_ _ _ _ [C] I _ _ can't _ [E] feel it [F] yet
_ _ _ But _ _ _
[C] _ I am _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ waiting
