[Intro]
G D Em C
 
[Verse 1]
G                       D
 Did you really beam me up
Em                      C
 In a cloud of sparkling dust
              G
 Just to do experiments on
                 D
 Tell me I'm the chosen one
                            Em
 Show me that this world is bigger than us
                           C
 Then sent me back where I came from
G
 For a moment, I knew cosmic love
 
 
[Chorus]
 G
 Now I'm down bad crying at the gym
 D
 Everything comes out teenage petulance
 Em
 F**k it if I can't have him
   C
 I might just die, 

 It would make no difference
 G
 Down bad, waking up in blood
 D
 Staring at the sky, 

 come back and pick me up
 Em
 F**k it, if I can't have us
   C                       
 I might just not get up, 
              G
 I might stay down bad
 D                            Em
 F**k it if I can't have him, down bad
 C
 F**k it if I can't have him
 
 
[verse 2]
G                        D
 Did you take all my old clothes
Em                    C
 Just to leave me here naked and alone
                  G
 In a field in my same old town
                       D
 That somehow seems so hollow now
                         Em        
 They'll say I'm nuts if I talk about 
     C
 The existence of you
G
 For a moment I was heavenstruck
 
 
[Chorus]
 G
 Now I'm down bad crying at the gym
 D
 Everything comes out teenage petulance
 Em
 F**k it if I can't have him 

 (F**k it, if I can't have)
   C
 I might just die, 

 It would make no difference
 G
 Down bad, waking up in blood
 D
 Staring at the sky, come back and pick me up
 Em
 F**k it, if I can't have us
   C                     
 I might just not get up, 
              G
 I might stay down bad 
(Like I lost my twin)
 D                           Em
 F**k it if I can't have him, down bad
 C
 F**k it if I can't have him
 
 
[Bridge]
G                         D
 I loved you hostile takeovers,
                          Em
 Encounters closer and closer
                        C
 All your indescent exposures
                              G
 How dare you say that it's...
                                  D
 I'll build you a fort on some planet
                               Em
 Where they can all understand it
                            C
 How dare you think it's romantic
                     G
 Leaving me safe and stranded
        D                    Em
 'Cause F**k it I was in love
    C                            G D Em
 So F**k you if I can't have us
        C
 'Cause F**k it I was in love
 
 
[Chorus]
 G
 Now I'm down bad crying at the gym
 D
 Everything comes out teenage petulance
 Em
 F**k it if I can't have him 

 (F**k it, if I can't have)
   C
 I might just die, 

 It would make no difference
 G
 Down bad, waking up in blood
 D
 Staring at the sky, 

 Come back and pick me up
 Em
 F**k it, if I can't have us
   C                      
 I might just not get up, 
              G
 I might stay down bad 

(Like I lost my twin)
 D                           Em
 F**k it if I can't have him, down bad
 C
 F**k it if I can't have him
