[Intro 1]
[D][Bm][Em][D][Csus2][G][Em][D][Csus2]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[Em]I'm caught up in the e[G]veryday trend
[C]Tied up [G]by invisible thread
[Em]Walking down [G]a razor- thin edge
And I [C]wake up tired,
think I'm [G]better off dead
[Em]Been a few months since I
[D]crossed over [C]state lines
Talk to my [Csus2]mom,
fake [G]smiles over [Em]Fa ceTime
Drink all night 'til I [G]can't
walk a [Csus2]straight line
[C]Feel so low but I'm [Csus2]high
at the [D]same time

[Verse 2]
[G]I can't keep my f[Bm]eet on t[C]he ground
And I'm [G]nervous what
you'll [Bm]think of [C]me now
I'm [G]hoping that [Bm]someone comes [C]around
And helps me [D]figure it [Em]out[Bm][C]

[Verse 3]
I [Em]think that I should [D]try to kill [C]my ego
[G]'Cause if [Em]I don't, my ego [D]might kill[C] me
[D]I'm all[Em] grown up but
[D]somehow [C]lately
I'm acting like a fucking [G]baby
I'm [Em]really not [D]as happy as [C]I seem[G]

[Verse 4]
[Em]Still a little kid that can't make friends
[C]Wanna be invited,
but I won't at[D]tend
I've been [Em]having bad dreams
my career could end
'Cause I [C]slip up when I should've
[Csus2]played prete[D]nd
[Em]Turned eighteen and I [D]left the city
[C]I said, "I wanna be cool,
I don't wanna be [D]pretty"
[Em]Voices all came crashing down
And said, [C]"You're too
nice to run this [D]town"

[Verse 5]
[G]I can't keep my f[Bm]eet on t[C]he ground
And I'm [G]nervous what
you'll [Bm]think of [C]me now
I'm [G]hoping that [Bm]someone comes [C]around
And helps me [D]figure it [Em]out[D][C]

[Verse 6]
I [Em]think that I should [D]try to kill [C]my ego
[G]'Cause if [Em]I don't, my ego [D]might kill[C] me
[D]I'm all[Em] grown up but
[D]somehow [C]lately
I'm acting like a fucking [G]baby
I'm [Em]really not as [D]happy as [C]I seem
[G]Nothing's as [Em]it seems[D][C]
Yeah, nothing's [G]as it [Em]seems
[D]And[C] I'[G]m all gr[Em]own up
but [D]somehow [C]lately
I'm acting like a fucking [G]baby
I'm [Em]really not that [D]happy being [C]me[Am][G]

[Verse 7]
[C]I don't like the lie I'm livi[D]ng
I'm way too nice and too forgiving
I [Em]wanna go back to the beginning
When it all felt right
[D]A roo[C]ftop, Lower East Side,
I'm [D]singing
Didn't give a fuck if I was winning
[Em]It's all done now, so who am I kidding?
I'm doing way [D]worse than I'm admit[Em]ting

[Verse 8]
I think that I should try to kill
[D]my [C]ego[Csus2][C]
'Cause [Em]if I don't, my eg[D]o might ki[C]ll me
[D]I'm all[Em] grown up but som[D]ehow,
[C]lately
I'm acting like a fucking [G]baby
[Em]I'm really not [D]as happy as [C]I seem
But [G]nothing's as [Em]it seems[D][C]
Yeah, nothing's [G]as it [Em]seems
[D]And[C] I'[D]m all gr[Em]own up
but [D]somehow [C]lately
I'm acting like a fucking [G]baby
I'm [Em]really not that [D]happy being me
[C]
