Tom: G

        G
I watch re-runs of the Jersey Shore
       D
Snooki drank too much, now she's on the floor
       Em
It's a feeling that I've felt before
          G           D
Though it was not televised


[Verse 2]
G
I don't mind, I don't get upset
           D
And you're watching me while I'm watching it
         Em
I'm just curious I'm a scientist
        G                C
But you think that I'm depressed


[Verse 3]
  G
I watch reality TV
     D
Just look at what it's done to me
  Em
I can't believe that nothing means
    G               D
Not half of what it did
G
I don't mind, I don't get upset
      D
But I haven't left my bedroom yet
    Em
And getting dressed was an accomplishment
       G                 D
So you win, you win, you win
    A        C
You win, you win


[Chorus]
      G       D            C
Don't tell me where you've been
      G       D        C
Don't tell me what you did
         Eb    C
What you did
              G    C G C G C G C
When you were gone


[Verse 4]
G                                     D
Me, I guess I'm still something of an amateur
                         Em
You'd think that I would know by now
       G                        D
Season 8 and I ain't figured it out
G                             D
So, on film I keep getting my feelings hurt
                     Em
Or saying things you don't deserve
     G               D               G
Or imprinting on you like a werewolf in love
                 D
I did, you don't get my references
          Em
What if I met someone who did
                 G              D
Did it all sound better in your head
     G                             D
That movie was so offensive but it got me through November
     Em                                     G                D
Even though I will swear up and down that I wish that I knew better
  A      C
I wish I did


[Chorus]
      G       D            C
Don't tell me where you've been
      G       D        C
Don't tell me what you did
         Eb    C
What you did
              G    C G C G C G C
When you were gone


[Verse 5]
        G
When it gets so bad that it’s almost good
             D
I'll move to San Francisco or Hollywood
        Em
I won't write you like you wish I would
         G                D
But I'll miss you all the same
G
You won't mind, you won't get upset
          D
Once you change, all you want is the audience
         Em
They are obviously all narcissists
           G                   D
Me, I just love turning off my brain
    A     C
One big escape


[Chorus]
N.C
Don't tell me at all
       G       D            C
(don't tell me where you've been)
C
I don't want to know
       G       D        C
(don't tell me what you did)
Am                                       C
I'll just watch it over and over on the show
