Eb            Eb/Ab          Eb/G               Abmaj7 
Everyone I've ever loved has liked me more than I've liked them 
    Eb            Eb/Ab              Eb/G               Abmaj7 
I'm never sure of what I want, and I think it might be happening again 
      Eb           Eb/Ab               Gm7           Ab 
We're in my car, I wanna kiss you, but I feel like I could throw up 
Eb                 Eb/Ab         Eb/G             Abmaj7/Bb 
I just met you and I'm already imagining our breakup 
 

 
Eb          Eb/Ab        Gm7           Abmaj7 
Maybe in another life, I got a dad who liked me 
Eb          Eb/Ab         Gm7                Abmaj7 
Maybe in another life, my mom was stable and healthy 
    Cm         Bb           Ab               Gm7 
But here I am, traumatized, fucking this up, wasting your time 
 F                   Fm          Ab               Bb            Eb 
Afraid of what would happen if I stopped avoiding    attachment

  Eb                 Eb/Ab 
I want attention without commitment 
  Eb/G           Abmaj7 
I wanna hold you from arm's lngth 
   Eb              Eb/Ab 
So when you ask me what I wanted 
  Eb/G                   Abmaj7 
I almost lost it, 'caus how do I say it? 
Eb                Eb/Ab 
You could give me space 
             Gm7                Ab 
You could be picture perfect, so well paced 
    Eb                 Eb/Ab         Eb/G             Abmaj7/Bb 
And I would still find any reason to break it off, to push you away 
 

 
Eb          Eb/Ab        Gm7           Abmaj7 
Maybe in another life, I got a dad who liked me 
Eb          Eb/Ab         Gm7                Abmaj7 
Maybe in another life, my mom was stable and healthy 
    Cm         Bb           Ab               Gm7 
But here I am, traumatized, fucking this up, wasting your time 
 F                   Fm          Ab               Bb            Eb 
Afraid of what would happen if I stopped avoiding    attachment  


{Instrumental} 
Eb/Ab Eb/G Abmaj7 


 
    Eb                       Eb 
You ask me if I feel safe before you try to touch me 
     Eb             Eb/Ab        Eb/G           Bb 
If I really let you see me, if I really let you love me 
          Eb                 Eb/Ab              Eb/G     Bb 
Would you hurt me worse than I could? Would the intimacy kill me? 
        Eb              Eb/Ab            Eb/G          Abmaj7/Bb 
Would I finally find my equal? Would you be the one to leave me? 
 

Outro 
Eb            Eb/Ab             Gm7              Abmaj7 
Maybe I could stick around when you say that you like me 
Eb               Eb/Ab               Gm7            Abmaj7 
   Maybe I could love someone who's      stable and healthy 
    Cm         Bb           Ab               Gm7 
But here I am, traumatized, fucking this up, wasting your time 
      F                                Ab                          N.C. 
While wondering what would happen if I stopped avoiding attachment
