verse 1 
E         C#m         A 
Went back home in the winter 
E       C#m            A 
Moved into my parent's house 
E              C#m           A 
Walked the hallways like a stranger 
      E         C#m           A 
Still haven't figured anything out 

A        B5                     E 
'Cause I still don't know what to do 
A            B5                E            C#m 
Last year, I swore I'd make a noose with the lights 
     A          B5 
Hang out in the gutter 
     Cdim        C#m B5 
Decorate my neck 
         A 
With the colored bulbs 
        B5 
So that everyone would 

         E 
Laugh at me 
         C#m 
Laugh at me 
         A 
Laugh at me 
                E                  C#m           A 
When you drive around the neighborhood in your SUV 
              E         C#m                 A 
Looking for a holiday display with your family 
               E          C#m       A 
And there I'll be, in the yard, dangling

verse 2 
E     C#m           A 
Happier spending December 
E          C#m     A 
Fulfilling obligations 
E          C#m            A 
Without the red pin in my calendar 
   E                C#m         A 
The last call at the Greyhound station 

A            B5          E 
'Cause I can hurry off to you 
    A      B5             E 
The end of every grueling day 
A           B5       E 
For the mundanity we suffer through 
A        B5              E              C#m 
I won't try to join the pile up on the freeway 
         A          B5 
Crash my car into a ditch, oh darling 
Cdim          C#m   B5  A     B5 
I won't even think of it; anymore 
 
               E 
'Cause I loved you 
        C#m 
I loved you 
        A 
I loved you 
                 E 
More than I hate me 
       C#m 
I hate me 
        A 
I hate me
