[Intro] G Em D C [Verse 1]
G                                                        A  Em
I’m staring at the wall, ‘cause the only news is bad news.
I’m waiting to fall—I’m the rain cloud in your living room.
D
I keep making lists of shit to tell my therapist—

     C
the reasons I wish I didn’t exist.

G                                                 A  Em
I’m sinking fast. I’m taking everyone down with me.
Alone at last somewhere in South Jersey.
D                                        C
My breath fogs up my glasses. Smoke hangs heavy in the wind.

Em
I’m reading up on black holes, hoping one might take me in.
[Chorus]
                    G   B  C
I’m growing out my hair, ‘cause who gives a shit.

                    G   B  C
I’m growing out my hair, ‘cause who gives a shit.

               D                        A     C
It’s looking hopeless, and I’m feeling desperate.

                   Em   D       C
I’m growing out my hair, ‘cause who gives a shit.
[Interlude] G Em D C [Verse 2]
G                                                         A Em
I’m staring at the dust that’s gathered on the fake plants.
I’ve given up; I can’t keep the real thing living.
D                               C
I watch the bluish glow of my shadow paint the far wall

Em
in the middle of the night, up watching Korean Baseball.

D
It’s low tide

      C
at serotonin bay,

             D
and for the first time,

                    C
I’m not sure that everything’ll be ok.
[Chorus]
                    G   B  C
I’m growing out my hair, ‘cause who gives a shit.

                    G   B  C
I’m growing out my hair, ‘cause who gives a shit.

               D                        A     C
It’s looking hopeless, and I’m feeling desperate.

                   Em   D       C                 D#
I’m growing out my hair, ‘cause who gives a shit.
[Bridge]
Em                  C
I’m exploding on re-entry,

                              G
scattered wreckage in the sea.

                          D
Everything’s been gray forever—

              D#         Em
it’s how it’s always gonna be.

                                C
I’ve never been more sure of something;

                        G
I see it clearly in my dreams.

                            F#
I know I’m gonna be the one,
the one who ruins everything. [Interlude] Em C G D D# Em C G F# [Bridge]
Em                  C
I’m exploding on re-entry,

                              G
scattered wreckage in the sea.

                          D
Everything’s been gray forever—

              D#         Em
it’s how it’s always gonna be.

                                C
I’ve never been more sure of something;

                        G
I see it clearly in my dreams.

                            F#
I know I’m gonna be the one,
the one who ruins everything. [Outro] Em
