_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ [C#m] _
_ Excuse me, but can I be here for a [E] while?

I got the _ Antichrist in the kitchen yelling at me [A] again
_ Yeah, I can [B] hear that
[E] Been saved again by the [A]
garbage [E] truck
I got something to say, you know, but [A]
nothing [E] comes
Yes, I know what you [A] think of me
You never should've
_ Yeah, I [B] can hear [A] that
What if I'm [B] a mermaid
In [E] these [C#m] jeans of his with her [F#m] name [B] still on it
But I [A] don't care
[B] Cause sometimes, I [C#m] said [A] sometimes
I hear [B] my voice and it's [C#m] been _ _ [D] Here _
_ _ _ [B] _ _ _ Silent [A] _ all [E] these _ years _

_ _ So you found a girl who thinks really deep [E] thoughts
What's so amazing about [A] really deep [Em] thoughts
Boy, you [E] best pray [A] that I bleed real soon
_ How's that thought [B] for you?
[E] My scream got lost in [A] a paper [E] car
I think there's a heaven where [A] some screams [E] have gone
I got 25 bucks and [A] a cracker
Do [E] you think it's [A] enough to _ get us [B] there?
[E] Cause what if I'm a [B] mermaid
In these [A] jeans of his with [B] her name still on it

[D] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _
Silent _ [A] all these [E] years
Go [A] by while I still be [B] waiting [A] for somebody else to [B] _ understand
[E] Years go by [A] from [B] septum of eurydice
[A] And the orange clouds [E] raining in my eyes
_ Years go by [A] while I choke [B] on my tears
Till [A] _ finally there [E] is [B] nothing left
[E] One more [F#m]
casualty, [B] you know [A] I do
Easy, [B] easy, easy
Well, I [E] love the way we [A] communicate
[E] Your eyes focus on my funny lip shade
Let's hear what you think of me [A] now
But baby, don't look up
_ The sky [B] is falling
[E] Your mother shows up [A] in a nasty [E] dress
And it's your turn now to stand [A] where [E] I stand
Everybody looking at [A] you
You [B] take hold of my [E] hand _
Yeah, I can [B] hear them
[A] But what if [B] I'm a mermaid
In [A] these jeans of [E] yours with her [B] name still on [A] it
But I don't care
