[Verse 1]

C
I've been thinkin' that life's too short

C
So many friends got their life cut short

F
Now I'm standing here doing lines in the bathroom

F
I hate myself, but I felt like I had to

[Pre-Chorus]

C
(Ooh) I've been hiding pain that's underneath

C
And I've been up so long, I'm scared to sleep

F
And if something were to happen to me

F
Can someone please

[Chorus]

        C
Tell my mama that I love her

        C
And I'm sorry for the pain, sorry for the pain

       F
That I caused her when I was younger

        F
All the stress I put her under

        C
Tell my mama that I love her

        C
And I'm sorry for the pain, sorry for the pain

       F
That I caused her when I was younger

        F
All the stress I put her under

[Verse 2]

                                  C
And everybody says that I've been manic

                                         F
I think they might be right, but I still manage

                            F
Lately, I've been so annoyed

                                        C
'Cause they think that I'm just paranoid

[Pre-Chorus]

 C
(Ooh) I've been hiding pain that's underneath

C                                        F
And I've been up so long, I'm scared to sleep

                                   F
And if something were to happen to me

Can someone please [Chorus]

        C
Tell my mama that I love her

        C
And I'm sorry for the pain, sorry for the pain

       F
That I caused her when I was younger

        F
All the stress I put her under

        C
Tell my mama that I love her

        C
And I'm sorry for the pain, sorry for the pain

       F
That I caused her when I was younger

F
All the stress I put her under

[Bridge]

C
I've been thinkin' that life's too short

C
So many friends got their life cut short

F
And I remember when I said I'd never be like this

F
Be like this

[Chorus]

        C
Tell my mama that I love her

        C
And I'm sorry for the pain, sorry for the pain

       F
That I caused her when I was younger

        F
All the stress I put her under

        C
Tell my mama that I love her

        C
And I'm sorry for the pain, sorry for the pain

       F
That I caused her when I was younger

F
All the stress I put her under
