[Verse 1]
B C#m B F#
Sixteen years looking up at the blackboard
G#m B C#m B F#
I don't even know how to read
G#m B C#m B F# G#m
I got pills to make the hamster wheels turn faster
B C#m B F#
But the monkey's in the driver's seat
[Pre-chorus]
G#m B C#m B F# G#m
And now I tear myself apart about everything at once
B C#m B F#
I miss my good old lack of self esteem
G#m B C#m B F# G#m
You can take out the wax and tie me to the mast
B C#m B F#
I gotta hear the sirens scream
D#
Don't listen to me
E
I just need a good night's sleep
[Chorus]
F# B
And you keep me up all night
F# B F#
Can't talk right
B E
I'm falling into my clothes
F# B
And even though I'm feeling like death
F# B F#
I can't be upset
B E
'Cause I finally know
C#m F# D#m G#m
C#m F# E
[Verse 2]
B C#m B F#
You can document the teenage wildlife
G#m B C#m B F#
Psychoanalyze the modern man
G#m B C#m B F#
You can classify 'em all by bloodtype
G#m B C#m B F#
But you're never gonna understand
[Pre-chorus]
B C#m B F#
What if panic were the right reaction
G#m B C#m B F#
To the anno domini milieu
G#m B C#m B F#
I'm too sleepy for the main distraction
G#m B C#m B F#
Downtown lights could never glow like you
D#
I'm going to sleep
[Chorus]
F# B
And you keep me up all night
F# B F#
Can't talk right
B E
I'm falling into my clothes
F# B
And even though I'm feeling like death
F# B F#
I can't be upset
B E
'Cause I finally know
[Post-chorus]
C#m F#
I don't want to be an animal (oh no)
D#m G#m
But you're making this hard for me
C#m F#
But I don't want to be an animal (oh no)
E
But you don't wanna go
[guitar solo]
[Chorus]
F# B
And you keep me up all night
F# B F#
Can't talk right
B E
I'm falling into my clothes
F# B
And even though I'm feeling like death
F# B F#
I can't be upset
B E D E D E
'Cause I finally know
D E D E
'Cause I finally know
D E D E
'Cause I finally know
D E D E
You'll finally know
