Mess

	  		Intro: Bb  F  Bb 

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

I'd want typical things 
                                      F 
I'd try to fit back into all my old clothing 

Pre-Chorus 
Eb 
And I would prove myself wrong 
     Gm                             F 
That all along, the problem was me 
F 
With all my bitterness gone 

Happy, I'd be 

 
Bb 
I'll move back home forever 

I'll feed the dogs and I'll put all 
Eb 
My pieces back together where they belong 
              Gm           F 
And I'll say, "I'm a mess, I'm a mess 
   Bb               Eb 
Oh God, I'm a mess" 
    Bb 
And I'll take 89 to Boston 

See my love and I'll help her 
Eb 
Set up her new apartment 

And we'll get drunk and she'll say 
 Gm                   F 
"Shit, you're a mess, you're a mess 
     Bb                 Eb 
Good God, you're a mess 
   Gm              F 
Oh, you're a mess, you're a mess 
     Bb 
Good God" 


Verse: 2 
Bb                                           F      Gm 
So I paid off my debts but I found the world boring 
                                                         F       Bb 
So I called my old friends but they only ever ask me how tour is 
                                            Eb        F      Gm 
And there's still weight on my back, I just try to ignore it 

I guess the stage was my mask 
                                   F 
I forgot the way I looked before I wore it 

Pre-Chorus: 
Eb 
And I would prove myself wrong 
     Gm                             F 
That all along, the problem was me 
F 
With all my bitterness gone 

Happy, I'll be 

Chorus 
Bb 
I'll move back home forever 

I'll feed the dogs and I'll put all 
Eb 
My pieces back together where they belong 
               Gm          F 
And I'll say, "I'm a mess, I'm a mess 
   Bb                Eb 
Oh god, I'm a mess" 
    Bb 
And I'll take 89 to Boston 

See my love and I'll help her 
Eb 
Set up her new apartment 

And we'll get drunk and she'll say 
 Gm                   F 
"Shit, you're a mess, you're a mess 
     Bb                  Eb 
Good God, you're a mess 
   Gm              F 
Oh, you're a mess, you're a mess" 

Bridge 
       Eb 
That's not what I had hoped 

Now I find comfort in the cold 


Bb 
I'll move back home forever 

I'll feed the dogs and I'll put all 
Eb 
My pieces back together where they belong 
              Gm           F 
And I'll say, "I'm a mess, I'm a mess 
   Bb               Eb 
Oh God, I'm a mess" 
    Bb 
And I'll take 89 to Boston 

See my love and I'll help her 
Eb 
Set up her new apartment 

And we'll get drunk and she'll say 
 Gm                   F 
"Shit, you're a mess, you're a mess 
     Bb                 Eb 
Good God, you're a mess 
   Gm              F 
Oh, you're a mess, you're a mess 
     Bb 
Good God"
