Strumming pattern carries through most of the song. It changes up at the bridge
and during Sammy's runs. Listen to the song to hear where

[Intro]
Fm
[Verse 1]
Fm
I'm at the after party
Fm
Everybody's talking for me
Bbm Bb
Everybody's talking fast and loud
Ab
I figure maybe if I get my jacket
Ab Gm7
Step outside and get myself some air
Gm7 C7
Then I could share myself more fully with the crowd
Fm
It's in the front room closet
Fm Bbm7
Yeah, find it with its pockets on the inside
Bbm7
Big enough to hold my shame
C7
I put the thing around my shoulders
C7 Bb7
Suddenly it's looking like I did not come to play
Bb
I already won the game
[Chorus]
Fm
And I was anxious, didn't know how to act
Ab
Socially speaking, I had lost my tact
Bbm7
Nobody gave me no time to react
C7 C
Good thing I had my bulletproof (denim jacket)
C
Woah, ah
Fm7 Bbm
Hey!
C7 Bb7 Bb
Hey, hah!
[Verse 2]
Fm
Now I'm on the patio
Fm
Listening to an old friend
Bb
She is crying on some man who never loved her right
Ab
And I say, "Why don't you just do it for him?
Ab
You could write it in a get-well-soon card
C7
Break it off real easy, ain't no need to start a fight"
Fm
Somebody shouted over (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Fm
"Why you always look that way
Bbm
And sound the way you do and why you try so hard?" (ooh, ooh, ooh)
C7
Oh, listen to the way you're talking
F C
Nobody else feels that way
Bb7 Bbm
And go read something somewhere if you think that you're so smart
[Chorus 2]
Fm7 F
'Cause you're anxious, don't know how to act, do you now
Ab
Socially speaking, you have lost your tact
Bbm
You think it's funny when you talk like that
C
Woah, but I got a foolproof (denim jacket)
C
Woah, ah
Fm
I was anxious didn't know how to act, no no no no no no no
Ab
And I would say that I had lost my tact
Bbm7 Bbm
I feel the hot heat coming like a heart attack, ah, ah
C
But I got a fireproof (denim jacket)
Woah, ah
[Bridge]
Db C7
See, I am under pressure, but I ain't never fresher
Fm Bbm
And I am under pressure, but I ain't never fresher
Db Bbm
I am under pressure, but I ain't never fresher
C7
I am under pressure, but I ain't never fresher
Db
Oh, oh, when I think I'm doing more than enough
C7
You gotta tell me that it's never enough
Fm Bb
I think I'm doing more than enough
Bbm
But you say that it's never enough
Db Gm
But I got it, ah ah, denim jacket, woah oh
C7
And I am under pressure but I ain't been never fresher, no
[Verse 3]
N.C
And I'm on the way back home, ah
Walking to the beat
I can feel the street below my feet, I can smell the air so clear
Now papasito doesn't make no sense
Leaning up against the fence
And he's calling out something his mama wouldn't wanna hear
Fm
Said "Turn around now love
Fm
And I can call you love because I love
Bb
The way you walk away all straight up and tall"
Fm Bbm
Oh, call me by my first name or you call me nothing at all
Fm Bbm Bb Ab
'Cause we ain't nothing at all (nothing at all) no, no, oh, oh, no
[Chorus]
Fm
And I was anxious, I didn't know how to act, oh, oh
Ab
I would say that I had lost my tact
Bbm
Nobody gave me no time to react
C7
Oh, good thing I had my bullet proof denim jacket
C7
Woah, oh, denim jacket
Fm
Anxious, I don't know how to act
Ab
I'm getting nervous baby, I'm thinking about turning back, oh, oh
Bbm
You think its funny when you talk like that, oh oh
C7 C
And I got a fool proof
Bb
Yes (denim jacket)
