  			verse 1: 
G 
  Having trouble with 
myself these days 
Em 
  I'm caged by my 
despondent ways 
G 
  I wake up late 
Em 
  leave early 
G 
  But it's the crux 
     Em 
of me  to communicate 
           G 
cryptically But I 
always speak softly 
        Em              Am C 
when I'm  talking to you 


verse 2: 
G 
  My friends and my habits 
         Em 
so they stick to me like glue 
G 
  But I always speak freely 
        Em 
when I'm  venting to you 
        Am 
But it's  no consolation 
    C 
for the way that I act 
      Am 
I will  push you away 
      C 
I will push you back 



        G 
And you say 
"You should get 
              Em 
your shit together 
You could be so much 
   G 
better If you just get 
                Em 
you're shit together" 
I know you're right 
            Am C Am C 
you're right 


verse 3: 
G 
  You see the ugly 
        Em 
parts I wish you 
          G 
never knew It's 
hard to sit and hide 
         Em 
when I'm always seeking 
   Am 
you  Will you love me 
           C 
still if I can't get 
           Am 
out of bed?  Will you 
love me still with 
      C 
these sick thoughts 
in my head? 


 
G 
  And I should get my 
       Em 
shit together I could 
           G 
be so much better if 

I just get my shit 
  Em 
together I know that 
                   Am 
I'm right I'm right 
                C 
I know when I'm right 

I know when I'm 
Am        C 
right I'm right
