A             Dm/A  
I'm right here 
A              
And I heard everything you said 
            Dm/A  A 
Those things 
                        D 
To try to get inside my head 

Is full 
    Bm                 A 
Now there's no room in here 
       Dm/A A 
For you 

You can't teach me the lesson 
A         Dm/A A 
Now I know 
I don't need you to tell me 
D                    Bm              E 
How it's done 'cause I know how it's done 


            D                           E 
See all the accolades, sitting up on my shelf 
        D                         Bm                          
I'm the man now, sticking it to myself 
                 Bm7/b5 
Sticking it to myself 

Sticking it to my- 

verse 2 
A           Dm/A  A 
Self-control 
                            A 
That's not the only thing I lack 
      Dm/A A 
A plan 

Just my own gun against my 
D                 Bm 
Back down now and let this hostage 
A      Dm/A  A 
Go away 

I'm trying to figure something 

A            Dm/A  A 
Makes me feel 
                        D 
Like I'd do anything it takes to be 
  Bm             E 
A fucking winner now 

            D                           E 
See all the accolades, sitting up on my shelf 
        D                             Bm 
I'm the man now, I'm sticking it to myself 
                 Bm7/b5 
Sticking it to myself 
                 A 
Sticking it to myself 

Bridge 
A (palm-muted) 
You don't seem interested in what I just said 
If you're not listening then don't nod your head 

Bm 
I thought so 
       Bm7/b5 
That's what I thought that 

verse 3 
A           Dm/A  A 
Someday soon 

This job is going to kill me 
A          Dm/A  A 
Dead inside 
                         D 
Unless I kill it first instead 
              Bm              E 
and when they come for me I'm gone 

                 D                           E 
There's just the accolades, sitting up on my shelf 
        D                             Bm 
I'm the man now, I'm sticking it to myself 
                  Bm7/b5 
Sticking it to myself 
                 A   Dm/A A 
Sticking it to myself
