A Bm C#m F#m F# D D#


Intro: A Bm x4

A          Bm                      C#m    Bm
I lost the passion that comes with living
A       Bm              C#m Bm
Since I started university
A          Bm                C#m
I took a geography course to learn the datelines
    Bm
And maybe use a sextant
A              Bm             C#m Bm
But now I just press facsimiles
 
A           Bm                       C#m
And youʼre exactly who you wanted to be
       Bm
Thatʼs what you said
A                Bm           C#m
ʼCause you wanna watch TV and sleep all day
    Bm
And lay in bed but
 
A          Bm                      C#m
Youʼre forgetting that Iʼve got to go to work
    Bm
And eat my food
    A               Bm            C#m
And pay my rent and reproduce and feed those kids
    Bm
And maybe use a sextant

Pre-Chorus:
    F#m  F#         A
       I donʼt miss you
               D                       D#
    I miss the thought of what we were

Chorus:
    A           Bm                F#m
    This is the part where I shut up
                          A
    And let you infest my brain
              Bm             F#m
    Wrap your arms around my cortex,
                           A
    dig you in and let you drain
     
           Bm               F#m
    Youʼll never get rid of me,
                               A
    Oh Iʼm like a fucking disease
                Bm              F#m
    Iʼll make a home in your gut
                                  A
    ʼCause itʼs somewhere warm to sleep

Instrumental: Bm C#m Bm

A             Bm                  C#m
What was your thought when you realised
                  Bm
Youʼll never feel naive love again?
A      Bm              C#m
Was it pain or was it sickness?
         Bm
Were you proud of who youʼd been?
 
A           Bm              C#m
The shyness waiting for his phone calls
            Bm          A
Replaced by apathy and dating apps
             Bm                  C#m
You held his hands, it felt like flying
         Bm
Now heʼs just another man
 
A                   Bm            C#m      Bm
Youʼd rather he was inside than beside you
A                Bm             C#m    Bm
But heʼs talking marriage and a future
A              Bm                 C#m  Bm
Heʼs picking a lock he doesnʼt go into
A               Bm            C#m
Heʼs knife in a wound, heʼs a suture

Post-Chorus:
    F#m  F#         A
       I donʼt miss you
               D                       D#
    I miss the thought of what we were

Chorus:
    A           Bm                F#m
    This is the part where I shut up
                          A
    And let you infest my brain
              Bm             F#m
    Wrap your arms around my cortex,
                           A
    dig you in and let you drain
     
           Bm               F#m
    Youʼll never get rid of me,
                               A
    Oh Iʼm like a fucking disease
                Bm              F#m
    Iʼll make a home in your gut
                                  A
    ʼCause itʼs somewhere warm to sleep

Bridge:
    A     Bm  F#m
    Itʼs okay
                             A
    Anything to make me feel less numb
         Bm   F#m
    Itʼs okay
                             A
    Anything to make me feel less numb
     
         Bm   F#m
    Itʼs okay
                             A
    Anything to make me feel less numb
         Bm   F#m
    Itʼs okay

Outro:
    A      Bm              F#m
    Eat my rent and eat my food
                                  A          Bm F#m
    And eat my dues and eat those kids (itʼs okay)
     
    And maybe use a sextant
