Halsey – 929 Chords with Strumming Guitar and Ukulele

D
I really was born at 9:29 AM on 9/29
Bm                               D                A
You think I'm lying but I'm, I'm being dead serious
           Bm        D  A
Okay, I'll prove it

[Verse]

Bm
Well, who am I? I'm almost 25
      D                           A
Can't remember half the time that I've been alive
                                Bm
'Cause half was in a cheap apartment
                    D                  A
And half was on the Eastside (Eastside)
                                  Bm
They said don't meet your heroes, they're all f*ckin' weirdos
                                   A
And God knows that they were right
                               Bm
Because nobody loves you, they just try to f*ck you
     A
Then put you on a feature on the B-Side
                              Bm
And who do you call when it's late at night?
         D                              A
When the headlines just don't paint the picture right
                               Bm
When you look at yourself on a screen and say
       D                          A
"Oh my God, there's no way that's me"
                            Bm
And I, I quit smoking, well recently, I tried
      D                           A
And I bought another house, and I never go outside
                              Bm
And I remember this girl with pink hair in Detroit
      D             A
Well, she told me
                                        Bm
She said, "Ashley, you gotta promise us that you won't die
       D                             A
'Cause we need you," and honestly, I think that she lied
                   E              Bm
And I remember the names of every single kid I've met
                                      A
But I forget half the people who I've gotten in bed
                                 Bm
And I've stared at the sky in Milwaukee
                                              A
And hoped that my father would finally call me
                                    Bm
And it's just these things that I'm thinkin' for hours
        A
And I'm pickin' my hair out in clumps in the shower
                               Bm
Lost the love of my life to an ivory powder
           D                          A
But then I realize that I'm no higher power
                                    Bm
That I wasn't in love then, and I'm still not now
                   D            A
And I'm so happy I figured that out
                                Bm
I've got a long way to go until self-preservation
                          A
Think my moral compass is on a vacation
                                    Bm
And I can't believe I still feed my f*cking temptation
                            A
I'm still looking for my salvation

[Chorus]

Bm                      A
Soft and slow, watch the minutes go
          Bm          D                       A            Bm
Count out loud, so we know you don't keep 'em for yourself
          D       A
Watch the minutes go
          Bm          D                        A
Count out loud, so we know you don't keep 'em for yourself

[Interlude]

Bm
I think I have a confession to make, I feel like (So we know you don't)
  A
I need to say that I was really born at 9:26
Bm                                    D
I saw my birth certificate, and I'm a liar
          A
And I'm a f*cking liar

[Outro]

N.C
Soft and slow, watch the minutes go
Count out loud, so we know you don't keep 'em for yourself
