 G
Want it, so I got it, did it, so it's done
  C
Another thing I ruined, I used to do for fun
  D
Another piece of plastic I could just throw away
  C
Another conversation with nothing good to say
     G
I thought it, so I said it, took it 'cause I can
  C
Another day pretendin' I'm older than I am
  D
Another perfect moment that doesn't feel like mine
  C
Another thing I forced to be a sign

Chorus:
       G
Well, sometimes I feel like
                         C
I don't wanna be where I am
                                               D
Gettin' drunk at a club with my fair-weather friends
                                          C
Push away all the people who know me the best
                                   G
But it's me who's been makin' the bed
                                      C
I'm so tired of bein' the girl that I am
                                               D
Every good thing has turned into somethin' I dread
                                           C
And I'm playin' the victim so well in my head
                                   G
But it's me who's been makin' the bed

                          C
Me who's been makin' the bed
                         D
Pull the sheets over my head, yeah
            C
Makin' the bed

And every night, I wake up from this one
recurrin' dream
Where I'm drivin' through the city and
the brakes go out on me
I can't stop at the red light,
I can't swerve off the road
I read somewhere it's 'cause my life feels
so out of control
And I tell someone I love them just as
a distraction
They tell me that they love me like
I'm some tourist attraction
They're changin' my machinery and
I just let it happen
I got the things I wanted,
it's just not what I imagined

Chorus

                          C
Me who's been makin' the bed
                         D
Pull the sheets over my head, yeah
            C
Makin' the bed

Em                       C                     G  D
Sometimes I feel like I don't wanna be where I am
Em                   C                     G
Countin' all of the beautiful things I regret
          D                        Em
But it's me who's been makin' the bed
                          C
Me who's been makin' the bed
                         G
Pull the sheets over my head
            D
Makin' the bed, oh-oh
