E/G#
Verse 1
A
If I could give this all back
E/G#
I would be home in the morning
F#m
I’d wake up in a cold sweat
E/G#
Take a flight back to the city I was born in
A
And I would wipe myself clean
E/G#
Of what I knew was unimportant
F#m
I'd want typical things
E/G#
I'd try to fit back into all my old clothing
Pre-chorus 1
D
And I would prove myself wrong
F#m
That all along, the problem was me
Eadd4
With all my bitterness gone
Chorus 1
Happy, I'd be
A
I'll move back home forever
I'll feed the dogs
D
And I'll put all my pieces back together
Where they belong, and I'll say
F#m
E
"I'm a mess, I'm a mess,
A
D
oh God, I'm a mess"
A
And I'll take 89 to Boston
See my love
D
And I'll help her set up her new apartment
And we'll get drunk and she'll say
F#m
E
"Shit, you're a mess, you're a mess,
A
D
good God, you're a mess"
F#m
E
"Oh, you're a mess, you're a mess,
A
good God"
Verse 2
A
So I paid off my debts
E/G#
but I found the world boring
F#m
So I called my old friends
E/G#
but they only ever ask me how tour is
A
And there's still weight on my back,
E/G#
I just try to ignore it
F#m
I guess the stage was my mask
E/G#
I forgot the way I looked before I wore it
Pre-chorus 2
D
And I would prove myself wrong
F#m
That all along, the problem was me
Eadd4
With all my bitterness gone
Chorus 2
Happy, I'd be
A
I'll move back home forever
I'll feed the dogs

And I'll put all my pieces back together
Where they belong, and I'll say

"I'm a mess, I'm a mess,
A

oh God, I'm a mess"
