[Verse 1]
A G#
I lost an island, in the ocean
C#m E
The place where nickels come to gamble on their faces
A G#
She took the offer, to be the daughter
C#m E
We pledge allegiance to the one who offers social graces
A G#
Please don't blame me
A G#
Please don't blame me
[Chorus]
C# E
'Cause I'm in over my head
A
In over my head
F#
It's for the best
[Short Riff]
[Verse 2]
A
I ripped up the picture
G#
The one in the kitchen
C#m
I looked weak
E
My eyes, they gave it all away
A
I don't deny it
G#
I still haven't found it
C#m
I proudly wear the scars
E
I've challenged every crutch so far
A G#
Please don't blame me
A G#
Please don't blame me
[Chorus]
C# E
'Cause I'm in over my head
A
In over my head
F#
It's for the best
[Break]
A G#
Please don't blame me
A G#
Please don't blame me
(Single strums)

In over my head

It's for the best
