[Verse 1]
            Eb
Could it be different?
Did I ruin the day?
                Ab
Oh, do you look angry?
Oh, what did I say!?
Bb
Filling in the gaps
Build a problem that
Ab
Neither of us needs
                       Eb
Something wrong with me
(Mmm-mmm-mmm)

            Eb
I'm getting desperate
Losing my mind
              Ab
Oh, how do we get here
Every time?
Bb
One will fold their arms
One will do the dance
Ab
Really is no need;
                       Eb
Something wrong with me

[Pre-Chorus]
      Cm
No, I don't think

I can help it

(Nope)

[Chorus]
Eb
Oh, so illogical
I'm not magical -
I can't read your mind!
Ab
But how can you not hear
the whole conversation
I have, sitting still with
a brain on fire?
Bb
I know - it's a me thing
Ab
Eyes closed - isn't helping?
Eb
When you go quiet, I hate myself
When you go quiet, I hate myself

Look at you sideways
Playing a game
             Ab
Oh what if I laugh now
Think I'm insane
Bb
Filling in the gaps
Build a problem that
Ab
Neither of us needs
                       Eb
Something wrong with me

[Verse 4]
          Eb
Pushing a boundary
Something to prove
            Ab
Strong expectation
You already lose

Oh, one will fold their arms
One will do the dance
Ab
Really is no need;
                       Eb
Something wrong with me

No, I don't think
      Db
I can help it
