Tom: A

A

[Verse 1]
A                E
I'm sorry if I’m not that good today
Bm                D
I'm sorry if I've overgrown teen angst
A              E
I’m sorry if I didn't do this right
Bm               E
I'm sorry that I stayed inside


[Chorus]
D                  E               A          C#m   F#m
But I just want to go to sleep and stay there for a while
Bm               E                 A        C#m   F#m
I want to be the kind of dead that seems to be in style
                    Bm
I'll have over some company
E
At the dinner party
    A               C#m       F#m
And laugh about the situation hard when I'm fifty
Bm           D        E  A
I don't want anything at all


[Verse 2]
A                 E               Bm
I tried to fix my posture up again
                   D            A
I had to force the texts I sent
                    E               Bm
I've got a pounding headache on the sidewalk
                         D
It's two days strong and I can’t talk


[Chorus]
D                 E               A          C#m   F#m
But I just want to go to sleep and stay there for a while
Bm               E                 A        C#m   F#m
I want to be the kind of dead that seems to be in style
                    Bm
I'll have over some company
E
At the dinner party
    A               C#m       F#m
And laugh about the situation hard when I'm fifty
Bm           D        E  A
I don't want anything at all



[Bridge]
A                 E               Bm
I'm all alone for hours in laptop places
          D             A
Or at the shops passing faces
                E            Bm
I tried to tell myself I was productive
                     D
But now it's getting self-destructive

A                   E                Bm
I'll write an awful song to hit record
                   D               A
And make it better when I’m bored
                 E                 Bm
I know that in a few weeks I'll be okay
                  D
A toss up for the next few days


[Chorus]

D                  E               A          C#m   F#m
But I just want to go to sleep and stay there for a while
Bm               E                 A        C#m   F#m
I want to be the kind of dead that seems to be in style
                    Bm
I'll have over some company
E
At the dinner party
    A               C#m       F#m
And laugh about the situation hard when I'm fifty
Bm           D        E  A
I don't want anything at all
