Rat Tabulatur von Penelope Scott

[Verse 1]
            Bb             Gm           Cm                  F
I come from scientists and atheists and white men who kill God
              Bb          Gm          Cm           F
They make technology high quality, complex, physiological
   Bb            Gm              Cm             F
Experiments and sacrilege in the name of public good
                Cm              F            Bb
They taught me everything, just like a daddy should
 
 
[Verse 2]
             Bb            Gm             Cm        F
And you were beautiful and vulnerable and power and success
            Bb                 Gm                  Cm                F
God damn, I fell for you, your flamethrowers, your tunnels, and your tech
          Cm             F            Bb                   Gm
I studied code because I wanted to do something great like you
             Cm         F              Bb
And the real tragеdy is half of it was true
 
 
[Bridge 1]
                       Cm          F                 Bb            Gm
But we've been fuckin' mеan, we're elitist, we're as flawed as any church
          Cm                 F           Bb                 Gm
And this faux-rad West coast dogma has a higher fuckin' net worth
          Cm             F
I bit the apple 'cause I trusted you
   Bb                 Gm
It tastes like Thomas Malthus
        Cm         F           Bb        Gm
Your proposal is immodest and insane
           Cm              F                 Bb        Gm
And I hope someday Selmers rides her fuckin' train
 
 
[Chorus]
  Cm            F           Bb              Gm
I loved you, I loved you, I loved you, it's true
   Cm       F           Bb         Gm
I wanted to be you and do what you do
  Cm            F              D7             Gm
I lived here, I loved here, I bought it, it's true
        Cm    F            Bb       Gm
I'm so stupid, and so used
Cm  F     Bb       Gm
I feel so used
 
 
[Verse 3]
           Bb              Gm                 Cm               F
I was your baby, your firstborn, the hot girl in your comp-sci class
          Bb                   Gm                  Cm                  F
And I was Darwin's prep school dream bred born and raised to kick your ass
           Bb              Gm            Cm              F
I fell for circuit boards, rocket ships, pictures of the stars
             Cm           F               Bb
If you could only be what you pretend you are
 
 
[Verse 4]
            Bb             Gm           Cm             F
When I said take me to the moon I never meant take me alone
             Bb                 Gm                Cm              F
I thought if mankind toured the sky it meant that all of us could go
            Cm              F                     Bb                Gm
But I don't want to see the stars if they're just one more piece of land
          Cm            F             Bb
For us to colonize, for us to turn to sand
 
 
[Bridge 2]
                        Cm             F                 Bb            Gm
'Cause we're so fuckin' mean, we're so elitist, we're as fucked as any church
         Cm                  F           Bb                 Gm
And this bullshit West coast dogma has a higher fuckin' net worth
          Cm             F              D7            G7
I bit the apple 'cause I loved you, and why would you lie?
           Cm                  F       Bb        Gm
And then I realized that your just as naïve as I am
              Cm             F                Bb
Oh, you're so traumatized it makes me want to cry
 
You dumb bitch
 
 
[Chorus]
  Cm           F            Bb              Gm
I loved you, I loved you, I loved you, it's true
  Cm        F          Bb          Gm
I wanted to be you and do what you do
  Cm            F             D7              Gm
I lived here, I loved here, I bought it, it's true
       Cm        F         Bb
I'm so embarrassed, I feel abused
 
 
[Verse 5]
             Bb              Gm                Cm            F
Well I don't want to eat the rich, I'd have to eat my heroes first
          Bb             Gm                Cm                F
And my tuition's paid by blood, I might deserve your fate or worse
            Bb                 Gm             Cm                  F
But I don't need your god damn money, I don't need jack shit from you
          Cm                  F                 Bb
So when I speak, you bet your life my words are true
 
 
[Verse 6]
       Bb             Gm              Cm            F
Let me level with you man, as someone guilty of the game
           Bb               Gm               Cm              F
I took the help, I took the cash, I would've taken your last name
      Cm          F                   Bb                Gm
So if any girl on Earth should get to make a call about this,
             Cm               F            Bb
it should be me, and as I see it, you're a dick
 
 
[Bridge 3]
             Cm                 F               Bb                 Gm
So fuck your tunnels, fuck your cars, fuck your rockets, fuck your cars again
    Cm                F                 Bb           Gm
You promised you'd be Tesla, but you're just another Edison
       Cm            F               D7              Gm
'Cause Tesla broke a patent, all you ever broke were hearts
           Cm               F        Bb
I can't believe you tore humanity apart
         Gm        Cm                       F                  Bb
With the very same machines that could have been our brand new start
 
And the worst part is
 
 
[Chorus]
  Cm           F            Bb              Gm
I loved you, I loved you, I loved you, it's true
    Cm          F           Bb            Gm
And sometimes I feel like I still fuckin' do
  Cm            F             D7              Gm
I lived here, I loved here, I bought it, it's true
       Cm        F          Bb
I'm so embarrassed, I feel abused
Cm F      Bb  Gm
I feel so used
Cm F      Bb  Gm
I feel so used
Cm      F      D7  Gm
Take me to the moon

I feel so used
Cm F      Bb
I feel so used
