Pedestrian at Best Courtney Barnett
Intro:
F# F F# F F# (slide from F to F#)
Verse
[F#]I love you, I hate you, I'm on the fence, it all depends
[F#]Whether I'm up or down, I'm on the mend, transcending all reality
[F#]I like you, despise you, admire you
[F#]What are we gonna do when everything all falls through?
[F#]I must confess, I've made a mess of what should be a small success
[F#]But I digress, at least I've tried my very best, I guess
[F#]This, that, the other, why even bother?
[F#]It won't be with me on my deathbed, but I'll still be in your head
(Chorus)
[F#]Put me on a pedestal and I'll [A]only disap[B]point you[F#] [A] [B]
[F#]Tell me I'm exceptional, I [A]promise to [B]exploit you[F#] [A] [B]
[F#]Give me all your money, and I'll [A]make some origami, [B]honey[F#] [A] [B]
[F#]I think you're a joke, but [A]I don't [B]find you very f[A#m7]unny
Verse 2
[F#]It's scratched and drifting, I've become attached to the idea
[F#]It's all a shifting dream, bittersweet philosophy
[F#]I've got no idea how I even got here
[F#]I'm resentful, I'm having an existential time crisis
[F#]Want bliss, daylight savings won't fix this mess
[F#]Under-worked and over-sexed, I must express my disinterest
[F#]The rats are back inside my head, what would Freud have said?
Verse 3
[F#]I wanna wash out my head with turpentine, cyanide
[F#]I decide this internal diatribe
[F#]When I try to catch you right, I hate seeing you cry
[F#]In the kitchen, I don't know why it affects me like this
[F#]When you're not even mine to consider
[F#]Erroneous, harmonious, I'm hardly sanctimonious
[F#]Dirty clothes, I suppose we all outgrow ourselves
[F#]I'm a fake, I'm a phony, I'm awake, I'm alone
[F#]I'm homely, I'm a Scorpio
