--------------------------------------------------------------------------- [Intro] | Bm | D | F#m | Em7 | | Bm | D | F#m | Em7 | [Verse]
   Bm       D
My head has thoughts

         F#m               Em7
What a ridiculous place to start

                Bm               D
She said, well, how about my chest

            F#m          Em7
Or, more specifically, my heart
[Verse]
   Bm         D               F#m
Whenever I'm alone or feeling lonely

     Em7                 [ Bm ]
I pretend I can play the drums

Bm          D             F#m
  Inside my head and I am good

             Em7
I love these songs

            [ Bm |
They love my songs
[Verse] (instrumental) | Bm | D | F#m | Em7 | | D | % | D/C | % | [Chorus]
               G6
But I am not a dirty god

G                    D
  And I don't have a dirty body

A           G6                    G
  And I am alone only half of the time

                D            A
The other half ... I am only hiding

                    G6        G
And she was getting high

G                       D
  Yeah, she was smoking pot

A                 G6            G
  I'm pretty sure I am the only guy

                       D
She's hooked up with tonight

               A              [ Bm ]
But probably, ... no, probably not
[Verse] (instrumental) | Bm | D | F#m | Em7 |

                   (break)
[Verse]
Bm                D
Who did I think I was

          F#m                Em7
Who did I think that I could be?

        Bm
Oh, how dare me

D         F#m         Em7
  Oh, how dare me.      (break)

              Bm                      D
And there's a voice in the back of my head

                  F#m                  Em7
In the back of my head, says, "let 'em be

                 D
Just let them be happy."

             D/C
I'm gonna go crazy
[Middle 8] | D Em | Em | C | % | | D Em | Em | C | % |
         D     Em
I am the water ... in a puddle 

                  C
In the shade of a tree

              D     Em 
When I freeze over, ... you are the sun

           C
You cannot touch me

                   D     Em
And the tree feels bad

                              C
I can tell by the way that it felt

                   Am7
But it still won't move

C                  Em
 So, the ice won't melt

                   Am7
No, it still won't move

C                  Em
 So, the ice won't melt
[Chorus] variation
               Gsus2 G
But I am not a dirty god

               Esus4 Em 
I don't have a dirty body

C          Gsus2     G
  And I am alone only half of the time

          Esus4     Em   C
The other half I am only hiding
[Interlude] | E7sus4 Em | Em | Asus4 A | A | | E7sus4 Em | Em | Asus4 A | A |
        E7sus4 Em
Keep my bo  -  dy alive

        Asus4 A
Keep my arms 

                     E7sus4 Em | Em | Asus4 A | A |
Reaching out towards anyone
[Chorus]
               G6
But I am not a dirty god

G                    D
  And I don't have a dirty body

A           G6                    G
  And I am alone only half of the time

          D              A
The other half I am only hiding

                    G6       G
And we were getting hi-i-i-i-high

          D
And I was smoking pot

A                 G6            G
  I'm pretty sure I am the only guy

                       D
She's hooked up with tonight

               A               G(add9)
But probably, ... no, probably not
