[intro] Bb A [Verse 1]
Bb
If I could give this all back

                              F
I would be home in the morning

Gm
I'd wake up in a cold sweat

                                           F
Take a flight back to the city I was born in

Bm
And I would wipe myself clean

                              A
Of what I knew was unimportant

Gm
I'd want typical things
I'd try to fit back into all my old clothing [Pre-Chorus]
Eb
And I would prove myself wrong

Gm
That all along, the problem was me

F
With all my bitterness gone
Happy, I'd be [Chorus]
Bb
I'll move back home forever, I'll feed the dogs

Eb
And I'll put all my pieces back together
Where they belong, and I'll say
Gm           F                Bb        Eb
"I'm a mess, I'm a mess, oh God, I'm a mess"

    Bb
And I'll take 89 to Boston, see my love

                          Eb
And I'll help her set up her new apartment
And we'll get drunk, and she'll say
Gm                    F                    Bb             Eb
"Shit, you're a mess, you're a mess, good God, you're a mess

    Gm             F              Bb
Oh, you're a mess, you're a mess, good God"
[Verse 2]
Bb
So I paid off my debts, but I found the world boring

Gm                                                          Dm
So I called my old friends, but they only ever ask me how tour is

Bb
And there's still weight on my back, I just try to ignore it

Gm
I guess the stage was my mask
I forgot the way I looked before I wore it [Pre-Chorus]
Em
And I would prove myself wrong

Gm
That all along, the problem was me

F                        Eb
With all my bitterness gone

F
Happy, I'll be
[Chorus]
Bb
I'll move back home forever, I'll feed the dogs

Eb
And I'll put all my pieces back together
Where they belong, and I'll say
Gm           F                 Bb          Eb
"I'm a mess, I'm a mess, oh God, I'm a mess"

Bb
And I'll take 89 to Boston, see my love

                   Eb
And I'll help her set up her new apartment
And we'll get drunk, and she'll say
Gm                   F                     Bb               Eb
"Shit, you're a mess, you're a mess, good God, you're a mess

Gm                 F
Oh, you're a mess, you're a mess"
[Bridge]
Eb
That's not what I had hoped
Now I find comfort in the cold [Chorus]
Bb
I'll move back home forever, I'll feed the dogs

               Eb
And I'll put all my pieces back together
Where they belong, and I'll say
Gm           F                 Bb           Eb
"I'm a mess, I'm a mess, oh God, I'm a mess"

Bb
And I'll take 89 to Boston, see my love

             Eb
And I'll help her set up her new apartment
And we'll get drunk, and she'll say
Gm                    F                      Bb             Eb
"Shit, you're a mess, you're a mess, good God, you're a mess

Gm                 F                     Bb
Oh, you're a mess, you're a mess, good God"
