Mess

==

capo 3

Verse 1
If I could [G]give this all back
I would be home in the [D]morning [Em] I'd wake up in a cold sweat [Em] Take a flight back to the city I was [D]born in [G] [G]And I would wipe myself clean
Of what I knew was [D]unimportant [Em]

I'd want typical things
I'd try to fit back into all my old [D]clothing

Pre-Chorus
[C]And I would prove myself wrong
That [Em]all along, the problem was me [D] [D]With all my bitterness gone

Happy, I'd be

Chorus
[G]I'll move back home forever

I'll feed the dogs and I'll put all
[C]My pieces back together where they belong
And I'll say, [Em]"I'm a mess, [D]I'm a mess
Oh [G]God, I'm a mess" [C] And [G]I'll take 89 to Boston

See my love and I'll help her
[C]Set up her new apartment

And we'll get drunk and she'll say
[Em]"Shit, you're a mess, [D]you're a mess
Good [G]God, you're a mess [C] [Em]Oh, you're a mess, [D]you're a mess
Good [G]God"

Verse 2
[G]So I paid off my debts but I found the world [D]boring [Em] So I called my old friends
but they only ever ask me how [D]tour is [G] And there's still weight on my
back, I just [C]try to [D]ignore it [Em]

I guess the stage was my mask
I forgot the way I looked before I [D]wore it

Pre-Chorus
[C]And I would prove myself wrong
That [Em]all along, the problem was me [D] [D]With all my bitterness gone

Happy, I'll be

Chorus
[G]I'll move back home forever

I'll feed the dogs and I'll put all
[C]My pieces back together where they belong
And I'll say, [Em]"I'm a mess, [D]I'm a mess
Oh [G]god, I'm a mess" [C] And [G]I'll take 89 to Boston

See my love and I'll help her
[C]Set up her new apartment

And we'll get drunk and she'll say
[Em]"Shit, you're a mess, [D]you're a mess
Good [G]God, you're a mess [C] [Em]Oh, you're a mess, [D]you're a mess"

Bridge
That's [C]not what I had hoped

Now I find comfort in the cold

Chorus
[G]I'll move back home forever
I'll feed the dogs and I'll put all
[C]My pieces back together where they belong
And I'll say, [Em]"I'm a mess, [D]I'm a mess
Oh [G]God, I'm a mess" [C] And [G]I'll take 89 to Boston

See my love and I'll help her
[C]Set up her new apartment

And we'll get drunk and she'll say
[Em]"Shit, you're a mess, [D]you're a mess
Good [G]God, you're a mess [C] [Em]Oh, you're a mess, [D]you're a mess
Good [G]God"
