                        C
I said I think you're special
                      F
You told me once that I'm selfish
                  G
And I kissed you hard
                      F
In the dark, in the closet
                      C
You said my music is mellow
                  F
Maybe I'm just exhausted
                         G
You think you're a good person
                                    F
Because you won't punch me in the stomach

    F  C      G
And I love you
               F
I don't know why
         Am  Em   F
I just do, oh, but

Chorus:
             C             G
You're not special, you're evil
F                      Am         Em
You don't get to tell me to calm down
F                 C      G
You made me feel like an equal
F                   Am
But I'm better than you
                 Em          F
And you should know that by now
          C              G
When you fell down the stairs
F                  Am         Em
It looked like it hurt and I wasn't sorry
F              C        G
I should have left you right there
F               Am      Em           F
With your hostages, my heart and my car keys
C           G
You don't know me

F           C
I wanna be happy
         F                  C           G
I'm ready to walk into my room without lookin'
     Dm
for you
      F            C          G
I'll go up to the top of our building
Dm     F         Am        Em               F
And remember my dog when I see the full moon

F        C   G  F
I can't feel it yet
    C     G   F
But I am waiting
