[Intro]

Cmaj7 Cmaj7 Cm Cm G G


[Verse]

Cmaj7 Cmaj7 Cm Cm G G Cmaj7 Cmaj7
Often I am upset that I cannot fall in love but I guess
Cm Cm G G
This avoids the stress of falling out of it
Cmaj7 Cmaj7 Cm Cm G G Cmaj7 Cmaj7
Are you tired of me yet? I'm a little sick right now but I swear
Cm Cm G G
When I'm ready I will fly us out of here


[Chorus]

Em Em  C C G G
Ooo oo oo, I'll cut my hair
Em Em  C C G G
Ooo oo oo, To make you stare
Em Em  C C G G
Ooo oo oo I'll hide my chest
Em Em   Cm Cm G G
And I'll figure out a way to get us out of here

Em Em  C C G G
Ooo oo oo x4


[Verse]

Cmaj7 Cmaj7 Cm Cm G G Cmaj7 Cmaj7
Turn off your porcelain face, I can't really think right now and this place
Cm Cm G G
Has too many colours enough to drive all of us insane
Cmaj7 Cmaj7 Cm Cm G G
Are you dead? Sometimes I think I'm dead
Cmaj7 Cmaj7
Cause I can feel ghosts and ghouls wrapping my head
Cm Cm G G
But I don't wanna fall asleep just yet


[Chorus]

Em Em  C C G G
Ooo oo oo My eyes went dark
Em Em  C C G G
Ooo oo oo I don't know where
Em Em  C C G G
Ooo oo oo, My pupils are
Em Em Cm Cm G G
But I'll figure out a way to get us out of here


[Bridge]

Em Em
Get a load of this monster
A A
He doesn't know how to communicate
C C
His mind is in a different place
G G                                Cmaj7 Cmaj7
Will everybody please give him a little bit of space
Em Em
Get a load of this train wreck
A A C C
His hair's a mess and he doesn't know who he is yet
Cmaj7 Cmaj7
But little do we know, the stars
G G
Welcome him with open arms


[Chorus]

Em Em  C C G G
Ooo oo oo, Time is
Em Em  C C G G
Ooo oo oo, Slowly
Em Em  C C G G
Ooo oo oo, Tracing his face
Em Em   Cm Cm G G
But strangely he feels at home in this place

@ericaphan I tried a capo on the third fret. its much higher but it does sound good, especially if you play it a bit faster

When i strum its mostly just Down, except for these parts:

(start)Cmaj- D D |Cm- D D |G D D DU D

Are you tired of me yet? I'm a little sick right now but I swear

When I'm ready I will fly us out of here(on the end G) G- D D DU D

And I'll figure out a way to get us out of here(Also on the end G) D D DU D

BAsically on all the Gs that are at the end (Excluding the end of the song) I strum down twice, a quick Down and an up, and then down again

Personal preference but i think it sounds rlly good

Hope this helped :)

For this song I would recommend to just strum from top to bottom and not bottom to top so it sounds like the actual song :)

The strumming pattern I use is D-DUD. Also I have a weird plucking pattern for the end.
Cmaj7- E G A G C E G E
and then a down strum on the chord G.
Sorry if this is weird or complicated but hope it helps!

DD-DU* - V1/V2

D-DU-UDU - Chorus/Bridge

and for the ending i use a plucking pattern.

Em- C E A G
C- C E G E
G- C E A G C E A G
and then repeat

if you don't like plucking, then i would use

DX* DX* DX* then a soft down strum-chuck.

*- change chord
chuck- stop the chord by placing your strumming hand over the strings.

cmaj7 ddu cm dddu g ddddududu

(Repeat the whole last part once too)
That's all I know as of rn, the strumming pattern is in a YouTube video and from what I know I might have it wrong but there's the first part for anyone who knows it. The video is by Natalie Eng, it's really helpful so I recommend anyone having trouble with the song to watch it. :-)

I mostly use DDDU-DDDU-DDDU ( a tad bit sped up at the DU parts ) It sounds calming and goes well with the song to me

for intro i use D D D U - D D D U -D D D U D U D D U
Instead of using Cm if you struggle, you can just use C
Also, like some other users i recommend maybe just using down strums for the singing part as it sounds calming and a lot more pleasant, its also not too complicated :P

i typically add Cmaj7 at the end of "welcome him with open arms".
i just think it sounds a bit better.

G------------0
C-4----3-----2
E--3-3--3-3--3
