This song is intended for ukulele, and as such, these are the ukulele chords in 
the original key, also playable on guitar with a capo on the 5th fret. I worked it 
out by ear on my uke. This is in no way my work, it is the original work of Julia 
Nunes, and we love her for it. if you're cool enough to have a uke, just ignore 
the bottom two strings. They're only written in for the benefit of the majority of 
people who have guitars. if there are mistakes, I apologize.

  Am                      D
I down cups of sludge and stay up forever

       G                      Em           G         Am
'cause I'm too afraid of what happens when I fall asleep

D    G    Em     G
        I can't drift away if you 

Am      D       G          
keep on holding tight      

Em            G              Am
Trust me, it's not worth the fight

D       G       Em      G
                Baby, I swear that I

Am                        E7
Don't really know if I'm lying to you

   Am                      E7
or hiding the truth from myself

        Am                     E7              
and I'm sorry I'm not, but you deserve to feel dumb

        Am                    E7
if you thought I was somebody else

  Am                       D
I know that you checked my pulse

                G                    Em       G        Am
to see if I was freakin' out, 'cause you were freakin' out

             D             G
but I remain comatose from coast to coast

       Em         G    Am       D     G
'cause everyone I care about is miles away

      Em             G        Am
can't figure out the words to say

  D      G        Em
I made a mistake

     G      Am       F       G     Em
It's not my fault if I can't see

              Am      F   G     Em
how you could fall so easily

         Am    F        G     Em
and I am never going to be

         Am    F       G      Em
what you saw inside of me

Am                  D
    I'm thinking of reasons not to love you

G                   Em      G
Ways I can push you away

         Am                      D
And it's safe to assume when you step in this room

           G                         Em    G
You should thank your stars for everyday

      Am                        E7
But I don't really know if I'm lying to you

   Am                      E7
or hiding the truth from myself

        Am                     E7              
and I'm sorry I'm not, but you deserve to feel dumb

        Am                    E7
if you thought I was somebody else

Am  D   G    Em   G   Am
