This song uses multiple chord voicings for the same chords- I've tried to be as detailed as
possible in showing which shape to play where.
Probably pretty obvious when you listen to the song as well, but the Bmaj7 and C#m7 are plucked
with the bass note alternating between B/A# and C#/C respectively.
There is also a passing note F is played between B/F# and Emaj7 in the [Outro Chorus]
Play with recording for exact picking patterns.

[Intro]
Bmaj7
x4
[Verse 1]
Bmaj7
Our family reunion
B7
I'd rather be anywhere but here
C#m7
It's like a pain you should ignore
F#7
But my uncle's here to open the door and I don't like him
Bmaj7
This family reunion
B7
I felt so uncomfortable, I left
C#m7
They all decided to stay
F#7
So it's just me and my mistakes
[Chorus]
Emaj7 D#7 G#m7 C#m7
And I'd like to know that you smile when you're alone
Gdim7
And when you need time to yourself
F#6/C# F#13
Remember me, I won't be anyone else
Bmaj7
I'm just the boy you love
I'm just the boy
[Verse 2]
Bmaj7
And my lover, my best friend
B7
When I heard that you don't know why you're here
C#m7
I fell face down
F#7
And became one with the ground
Bmaj7
And my lover's best friend
B7
No, he doesn't know what to suggest
C#m7
He does everything for love
F#7
But when his "everything" just isn't enough
[Chorus]
Emaj7 D#7 G#m7 C#m7
He'd like to know that you smile when you're alone, (mh mh)
Gdim7
And when you need time to yourself, (mh mh)
F#6/C# F#13
Remember me, I won't be anyone else
Bmaj7
I'm just the boy you love
The boy... you love
Bmaj7 B7
[Outro Chorus]
Emaj7 Fm7b5 F#7
And if it looks like you don't love me then
Gdim7 G#m7
That's alright and I would let you be content
B/G
I'm still your friend
B/F# Emaj7
No revenge and no regrets
Bmaj7 B7
No regrets, no regrets
Emaj7 Fm7b5
And if it looks like God might judge me
F#7 Gdim7 G#m7
Then I don't even wanna stay another day
B/G B/F#
'Cause if he's the one, then who am I?
B/G
He calls the shots
G#m7
And he always decides
B/G B/F# Emaj7
What's the point in living life
Em Bmaj7
Living life... when it's all for him...
[Outro]
Cdim7 C#m7 F#7 Bmaj7
All for him
