[Intro]

E C#m A

[Verse 1]

E C#m A

Went back home in the winter

E C#m A

Moved into my parent's house

E C#m A

Walked the hallways like a stranger

E C#m A

Still haven't figured anything out

A B5 E

'Cause I still don't know what to do

A B5 E C#m

Last year, I swore I'd make a noose with the lights

A B5

Hang out in the gutter

Cdim C#m B5

Decorate my neck

With the colored bulbs

So that everyone would

[Chorus 1]

Laugh at me

C#m

Laugh at me

E C#m A

When you drive around the neighborhood in your SUV

E C#m A

Looking for a holiday display with your family

E C#m A

And there I'll be, in the yard, dangling

[Instrumental]

E C#m A

[Verse 2]

E C#m A

Happier spending December

E C#m A

Fulfilling obligations

E C#m A

Without the red pin in my calendar

E C#m A

The last call at the Greyhound station

A B5 E

'Cause I can hurry off to you

A B5 E

The end of every grueling day

A B5 E

For the mundanity we suffer through

A B5 E C#m

I won't try to join the pile up on the freeway

A B5

Crash my car into a ditch, oh darling

Cdim C#m B5 A B5

I won't even think of it; anymore

[Chorus 2]

'Cause I loved you

C#m

I loved you

More than I hate me

C#m

I hate me
