[Verse]
        F#5                     A5                 D5                       
They're bored, that's why she's always on her phone

             F#5                A5                 D5
And we could stay here for the weekend, but I know I gotta get back home

             F#5                   A5                  D5
She says she hates her last name because it makes her feel like she belongs

           F#5                 A5               D5      
Her mother says she's not her favourite and her brother comes in second, maybe third

         F#5
But she's in last

              A5              D5
And she will always be in last
[Chorus]
       F#5                        E5
In the blacklight, I could tell a sick joke. 

                 A5               D5
Do you think I'm funny? Or was it something else?

           F#5                         E5
And in the bathroom I could write your name down

                A5                     D5
Are we all this desperate? I think the answer is yes

       F#5                        E5
In the blacklight, I could tell a sick joke. 

                 A5               D5
Do you think I'm funny? Or was it something else?

           F#5                         E5
And in the bathroom I could write your name down

                A5                     
Are we all this desperate? I think the answer is yes
[Post Chorus] N.C. Oh F#5 E5 A5 D5 F#5 E5 A5 [Verse]
       F#5                    E5                        A5                         D5
In the living room your father says to me through quiet simple words that this was meant to be

          F#5                   E5                              A5
So I will get my books, and you could get the car, and we could sleep here now

              D5
She says "I'm glad you broke my heart"

              F#5                            E5
And, oh, your airsoft gun is loaded and it's pointed towards my face

              A5                              D5
And, oh, your eyes they meet my eyes, and oh, your eyes are full of hate

              F#5                     E5
They say "the grass is always greener on the other side"

                  A5
but sometimes the grass only is green until the grass has finally died
[Chorus]
           F#5                       E5
And In the blacklight I could tell a sick joke

                 A5               D5
Do you think I'm funny? Or was it something else?

           F#5                         E5
And in the bathroom I could write your name down

                A5                  
Are we all this desperate? I think the answer is yes

           F#5                       E5
And in the blacklight I could tell a sick joke

                 A5               D5
Do you think I'm funny? Or was it something else?

           F#5              E5
And in the bathroom I could write your name down

                A5
Are we all this desperate?

                D5
Are we all this desperate?
