What Do You Want From Me Tonight

Sidney Gish


Tom: C#m

E

[Verse 1]
        E                G#
Well, I took someone's advice
       C#m                    E                   A
With a roll of each eye, she told me to sit down twice
            F#m            B
What do you want from me tonight?
         E              G#
Now I’m stuck losing my mind
      C#m                E                       A
while everyone else just thinks that I’m really shy
            F#m            B
what do you want from me tonight?

[Chorus]
            A             B         C#m
Cause I'm invited but I'm terrifying too
          A             B                  E        G#        C#m   E
And I'll sit here for a million years just staring across the room
    A                B N.C.
but what do you want?
                E
Cause I want it all -
                      A                                    B
and I'd really rather step back, but my back's against the wall

[Verse 2]
        E        G#
What if I'm too nice?
       C#m                  E            A
It’s a punch in the face to be so over polite
            F#m            B
What do you want from me tonight?
        E           G#
And my voice is too high,
       C#m                    E                 A
and it matches my head and I look like I wanna die,
            F#m            B
what do you want from me tonight?

[Chorus]
            A             B         C#m
Cause I'm invited but I'm terrifying too
          A             B                  E        G#        C#m   E
And I'll sit here for a million years just staring across the room
    A                B N.C.
but what do you want?
                E
Cause I want it all -
                      A                                    B
and I'd really rather step back, but my back's against the wall

[Bridge]
        E             G#            C#m          E
and I’m born too tall to contort my spine into a ball
      A          F#m              B
and I wanna disappear but I’m not adequately small

[Chorus]
      A             B           C#m
I'm invited but I'm terrifying too
          A             B                  E        G#        C#m   E
And I'll sit here for a million years just staring across the room
A                 B
What do you want?
                E
Cause I want it all -
                      A                                    B  C#m F#m  E
and I'd really rather step back, but my back's against the wall
