[Intro]
B
[Verse]
B                                                   A
Try not to wake me up, cause I don't feel too good.
B                                             A
I'm tired of miracles and being so understood.
B                                            G  A
Let's all be difficult and never try too hard.
B                                                  G  A
Let's all be critical of those who show their heart.
B                                                G  A
If this sounds typical then congratulate yourself.
B                                                                      G  A
I'm proud I'm miserable but don't tell anyone because I'm breaking down.
[Chorus]
A              Ab        F
Maybe I'm just lost they said.
A              Ab       F
Maybe I'm just tired or dead inside.
A           Ab         F
Something's wrong with me.
B                       A
Maybe that's just how I am…
A           D                      E
Maybe I'm a mess and I ain't gonna change.
[Verse]
B                                               A
So tired of being old and feeling cold and numb.
B                                               A
So tired of being told I'm acting young and dumb.
B                                               G  A
I'm not as quick to say that I wish I could quit.
B                                                                G  A
I gave up on giving up and lost myself a bit trying to be a ghost.
[Chorus]
A              Ab        F
Maybe I'm just lost they said.
A              Ab       F
Maybe I'm just tired or dead inside.
A           Ab         F
Something's wrong with me.
B                       A
Maybe that's just how I am…
A           D                      E
Maybe I'm a mess and I ain't gonna change.
[Bridge]
B                                                                        G  A
I don't wanna be here. I don't wanna be there, I don't wanna be anywhere.
A                                             G  A
I don't wanna be here. I don't wanna be there.
B                                                                                          G  A
Save your breath, save your breath, save your breath, save your breath because I don't care.
B                                                                                           G  A
Hold your breath, hold your breath, hold your breath, hold your breath, we may need the air.
A                                                 G  A
I write the bastard songs, they make me feel alive.
A                                             D                       E
I like the saddest songs and pretending I'm alright... but maybe it's me.
[Chorus]
A              Ab        F
Maybe I'm just fine with it.
A       Ab       F
Finally proud to live
A      Ab     F
Inside my own skin
B                       A
Maybe that's just how I am…
A           D   E
Maybe I'm a mess.
B                       A
Maybe that's just who I am…
A           D   E
Maybe I'm a mess.
[Chorus]
A              Ab        F
Maybe I'm just lost they said.
A              Ab       F
Maybe I'm just tired or dead inside.
A           Ab         F
Something's wrong with me.
B                       A
Maybe that's just how I am…
A           D   E
Maybe I'm a mess.
B                       A
Maybe that's just how I am…
A           D                       E
I am just a mess… And I don't wanna change.
