Intro |E/A Amaj7|E/A Amaj7|
Verse 1
[E/A]All alone by the [Em]table of food
in my [D]wrinkled [G]suit and my [D]borrowed tie
[E/A]Only thinking of [Em]something to say
in the [D]moment [G]after the [D]girl goes by
[G] Everyone [G/F]else is having [G/E]fun or else pre[G/Eb]tending to
[G] I eat a[G/F]nother crudi[G/E]te[G/Eb]
Chorus
[Cadd9] I quit, [G/B]I'm done
'[Asus4]cause I don't think it's gonna [D]turn out OK
It's [Cadd9]no fair and it's [G/B]no fun
If [Asus4]every time it's gonna [D]end the same way:
[C#m7b5] Me: zero, [Cm]Big bad world: [G]one
Verse 2
[E/A]At the office we're [Em]all having cake
'cause it's [D]someone's [G]birthday I [D]don't know who
[E/A]Get my plate and I'm [Em]scanning the room
and the [D]only [G]seat is right [D]next to you
[G] I get the [G/F]nod, the tiny [G/E]smile that doesn't [G/Eb]come with teeth
[G] Maybe you [G/F]don't know who I [G/E]am[G/Eb]
Chorus
[Cadd9] I quit, [G/B]I'm done
'c[Asus4]ause I don't think it's gonna t[D]urn out OK
It's [Cadd9]no fair and it's [G/B]no fun
If [Asus4]every time it's gonna [D]end the same way:
[C#m7b5] Me: zero, [Cm]Big bad world: [G]one
Bridge
Staying in-[C]side lying in [G]bed
Noticing [Am]something that's not [Em]there
Follow my [C]heart, follow my [G]head
Bb C(alt) E/A
I'll follow anything that might get me somewhere
Re-Intro: |E/A Amaj7|E/A Amaj7|
Verse 3
[E/A]Catch her eye when she's [Em]pouring my coffee
and [D]search my [G]head for an [D]opening line
[E/A]But I see by the [Em]look on her face
if I [D]keep my [G]mouth shut I'll [D]save some time
[G] What if the [G/F]best that I can [G/E]be just isn't [G/Eb]good enough?
[G] Isn't it [G/F]better not to [G/E]know?[G/Eb]
Chorus
[Cadd9] I quit, [G/B]I'm done
'c[Asus4]ause I don't think it's gonna t[D]urn out OK
It's [Cadd9]no fair and it's [G/B]no fun
If [Asus4]every time it's gonna [D]end the same way:
[C#m7b5] Me: zero, [Cm]Big bad world: one
