[Intro] C G Em D C G Em D C G [Verse] Em D C I'm caught up in the everyday trend G Tied up by invisible thread Em D Walking down a razor-thin edge C And I wake up tired, G think I'm better off dead Em Been a few months since D C I crossed over state lines Talk to my mom, G fake smiles over FaceTime Em Drink all night till D C I can't walk in a straight line G Feel so low but I'm high at the same time [Pre-Chorus] G Bm C I can't keep my feet on the ground G And I'm nervous Bm C what you'll think of me now G Bm C I'm hoping that someone comes around D Em Bm C Helps me figure it out [Chorus] Em D I think that I should try to C G kill my ego Em 'Cause if I don't, D C G my ego might kill me Em D I'm all grown up but somehow lately C G I'm acting like a freaking baby Em D C G I'm really not as happy as I seem [Verse] Em Still a little kid that can't make friends C Wanna be invited, D but I won't attend Em I've been having bad dreams my career could end C 'Cause I slip up when D I should've played pretend Em Turned eighteen and D I left the city C Said, "I wanna be cool, G I don't wanna be pretty" Em D The voices all came crashing down C And said, "You're too nice to G run this town" [Pre-Chorus] G Bm C I can't keep my feet on the ground G And I'm nervous Bm C what you'll think of me now G Bm C I'm hoping that someone comes around D Em Bm C Helps me figure it out [Chorus] Em D I think that I should try to C G kill my ego Em 'Cause if I don't, D C G my ego might kill me Em D I'm all grown up but somehow lately C G I'm acting like a freaking baby Em D C I'm really not as happy as I seem G Em D C Nothing's as it seems G Em D C G Nothing's as it seems Em D And I'm all grown up but somehow lately C I'm acting like G a freaking baby Em D C G I'm really not that happy being me [Bridge] C I don't like the lie I'm living D I'm way too nice and too forgiving Em I wanna go back to the beginning D When it all felt right C A rooftop, Lower East Side, I'm singing D Didn't give a freak if I was winning Em It's all done now, who am I kidding? N.C. I'm doing way worse than I'm admitting [Chorus] Em D I think that I should try to C G kill my ego Em 'Cause if I don't, D C G my ego might kill me Em D I'm all grown up but somehow lately C G I'm acting like a freaking baby Em D C I'm really not as happy as I seem G Em D C Nothing's as it seems G Em D C G Nothing's as it seems Em D And I'm all grown up but somehow lately C G I'm acting like a freaking baby Em I'm really not that D C happy being me
