	        Intro Bb  F  Gm  Bb  Eb 

            Bb                       F 
I'm gettin' older, I think I'm agin' well 
                   Gm 
I wish someone had told me 
        Bb            Eb 
I'd be doin' this by myself 
                         Bb        
There's reasons that I'm thankful 
                           F 
There's a lot I'm grateful for 
                          Gm            
But it's different when a stranger is 
       Bb              Eb 
Always waitin' at your door 

Cm 
Which is ironic, 'cause the strangers seem to 
F 
Want me more 
               Bb      Ab    Gm 
Than anyone before (anyone before) 
Cm                      F 
Too bad they're usually deranged 

Bb                            Dm 
Last week, I realized I crave pity 
                 Gm 
When I re-tell a story 
      Bb               Eb 
I make everything sound worse 

                Bb 
Can't shake the feeling 
                      Dm 
That I'm just bad at healing 
                     Gm           Bb 
And maybe that's the reason every sentence 
          Eb 
Sounds rehearsed 
                                       F 
Which is ironic, because when I wasn't honest 
                  Bb        
I was still bein' ignored 
       Ab       Gm                     Cm 
(lyin' for attention, just to get neglection) 

            Ebm 
Now we're estranged 



Bb                 Dm 
   Things I once enjoyed 
Gm  F              Eb7M 
   Just keep me employed now 
Bb                   Dm 
   Things I'm longing for 
Gm  F                Eb 
    Someday, I'll be bored of 
        Cm  F  Bb  Ab  Gm    
E|t's| so we-------------ird 
            Cm                 F 
That we care so much, until we don't 



            Bb 
I'm gettin' older 
                     F 
I've got more on my shoulders 
                Gm        Bb        
But I'm gettin' better at admitting 
        Eb 
When I'm wrong 
                 Bb 
I'm happier than ever 
                     Dm 
At least, that's my endeavor 
                 Gm           Bb 
To keep myself together and prioritize 
    Eb 
My pleasure 
             Cm 
'Cause to be honest 
                          F 
I just wished the word I promised 
                         Bb 
Would depend on what I'm givin' 
        Ab     Gm 
(not on his permission) 
               Cm           Ebm 
(Wasn't my decision) To be abused, hmm 


Bb                 Dm 
   Things I once enjoyed 
Gm  F              Eb7M 
   Just keep me employed now, mm 
Bb                     Dm 
   Things I'm longing for 
Gm  F                Eb 
    Someday, I'll be bored of 
        Cm  F  Bb  Ab  Gm    
E|t's| so we-------------ird 
            Cm                 F 
That we care so much, until we don't 


    Bb                              Dm 
But next week, I hope I'm somewhere laughin' 
            Gm        Bb              Eb 
For anybody asking, I promise I'll be fine 
              Bb                          Dm 
I've had some trauma, did things I didn't wanna 
                  Gm 
Was too afraid to tell ya 
    Bb 
But now, I think it's time
