             C      D             G
I hate your bad tattoos and your second-hand stories;

      C    D              G
those anecdotes that grew old last month. 

           C        D                G
I hate the way you move when you’re drunk and try dancing. 

C         D                G
It’s not sexy. It’s just keeping us up 

          C                F   
and I’m just not fond of anyone, 

    (D#)        C            F        G
but that’s got everything to do with us. 

            C     D          G
I hate the way I get when I can’t handle bad news.

     C         D             G 
It feels like I’ve been an asshole for months.

C              D              G
All I’ve got left are these handfuls of fuck you.

C             D     G
Man, that’s never enough. 
[Chorus]
                  C
I guess I’m just down. 

                  G
I guess I’ll be honest. 

                  D
I could use you around. 

                  G                              C
I can’t stand the dork that you’re hanging with now. 

                  G
I guess I’ll be honest.

                Am   F 
I could use you around. 
[Verse]
            C                            G     Am
I hate the way that you can’t keep your hair straight. 

           Em                          D
I hate the way that you’re leaning on me. 

            C                            G         Am
I hate the way that you point out when girls are staring 

            Em                       D
because you know that I won’t do a thing. 

            C                      D
I hate the context clues you leave out of your writing 

        G
because I can’t find myself here at all. 

     C                     D           
You know that I hate when you call me wasted. 

   G
I expect it whenever you call. 
[Chorus]
                  C
I guess I’m just down. 

                  G
I guess I’ll be honest. 

                  D
I could use you around. 

                  G                              C
I can’t stand the dork that you’re hanging with now. 

                  G
I guess I’ll be honest.

                Am   F 
I could use you around. 

                 C  G
I could use you around. 

                 Am   F C
I could use you around now.

C                               F
My friends all say he’s just a b-rate version of me; 

               C
he’s stuck on video games and weed. 

                       F
They’re just trying to help me get to sleep. 

C                                  F
My friends all say you’re sitting way too close to me,

                C 
that I should just get up and leave. 

                F
It’s like I’m weighed down to the seat. 

C                                 F
My friends all say he’s just the broke-dick version of me. 

                        C
They’re just trying to help me get some sleep. 

                   F       
I know he’s what you need.
[Chorus]
                  C
I guess I’m just down.

I could use you around. 

                  G                              C
I can’t stand the dork that you’re hanging with now. 

                  G
I guess I’ll be honest.

                Am   F 
I could use you around. 

                 C  G
I could use you around. 

                 Am   F 
I could use you around.

                 C   G
I could use you around.

                 Am     F
I could use you around.
