Bm                 G
Oh, shit, here we go again
          A                  F#7
It's the same old lies, same instrument
Bm                   G             A  F#7
Like La-la-la, I'm broken and I'm dead
Bm                G                 A
If I'd known I'd be where I'm at today,
            F#7          Bm
I think I'd give it all away
          G             A  F#7
I wish I never left my home

            G                             A
But when I hear you say my name, tell me, everything
okay
     F#7                       Bm
I forget about the world, I forget about the pain
               G                             A
'Cause when I see you wear my shirt, listen to
your calming words
    F#7                           Bm
I remember that the rain doesn't hurt me
when I say, ay ay

Chorus:
G                     A
I love it, I love it, I love the fear
           F#7                              Bm
I love the way you make the bad things run away
(ay ay, ay ay)
G                     A
I love it, I love it, I love the tears,
           F#7
I love the pain
                             Bm
You make the bad things run away

Shut the fuck up, I don't wanna hear your voice, no
Save your breath or you gon' give yourself
a sore throat
I need a little bit of space, I wanna lay low
It's okay, I'll make it one day, oh
Guilty, I'm a counterfeit musician
I only say the things I say so you will listen
Some say it's the product of a vision
I don’t fuck with
It's not my decision

But when I hear you say my name,
tell me everything's okay
I forget about the world, I forget about the pain
'Cause when I see you wear my shirt,
listen to your calming words
I remember that the rain doesn't hurt me when I say

Chorus

G                        A
I'm better off all by myself
                            F#7
No one to call, no one will help
                              Bm
No one at fault, no one can qwell
No, I'm not well
No, I'm not well
G                 A
Irrational, Inadequate
                F#7
Unnatural, Inanimate
I'll never change
          Bm
I wanna quit
So full of rage
So full of shit

Chorus

But when I hear you say my name,
I know everything's okay
I forget about the world,
I forget about the pain
When I'm struggling to breathe, and all
I think are bad things
I remember that you're mine, I remember everything
