    [Intro]

    N.C.
    (Drums)

    Anti-Hero Chords/Lyrics/Verse 1

    A        E                                           B                     C#m
    I have this thing where I get older but just never wiser
    A                E                                             B             C#m
    Midnights become my afternoons
    A                   E                                        B
    When my depression works the graveyard shift
         C#m               A                        E                                    B           C#m
    All of the people I’ve ghosted stand there in the room

    Anti-Hero Chords/Lyrics /Pre-Chorus

       A                        E                                B
    I should not be left to my own devices
               C#m                                A
    They come with prices and vices
       E                             B                   C#m
    I end up in crisis (Tale as old as time)
    A            E                                           B
    I wake up screaming from dreaming
                     C#m                               A
    One day I’ll watch as you’re leaving
                           E                                     B
    Cause you got tired of my scheming
                  C#m
    (For the last time)

    Anti-Hero Chords/Lyrics/Chorus

    A          E
    It’s me, hi
    B                           C#m
    I’m the problem, it’s me
       A     E          B               C#m
    At tea time, everybody agrees
    A                E                              B
    I’ll stare directly at the sun
                     C#m
    But never in the mirror
    A                        E
    It must be exhausting
                     B                C#m
    Always rooting for the anti-hero

    [Instrumental]

    A           E           B          C#m

    Anti-Hero Chords/Lyrics/Verse 2

    A                        E                        B          C#m
    Sometimes I feel like everybody is a sexy baby
    A                  E                              B        C#m
    And I’m a monster on the hill
    A                  E                                B                          C#m
    Too big to hang out, slowly lurching toward your favorite city
    A                              E                                             B      C#m
    Pierced through the heart, but never killed

    Anti-Hero Chords/Lyrics/Pre-Chorus 2

    A              E                                  B            C#m                  A
    Did you hear my covert narcissism I disguise as altruism
    E                                       B                                          C#m
    Like some kind of congressman (Tale as old as time)
    A           E                                            B
    I wake up screaming from dreaming
                     C#m                               A
    One day I’ll watch as you’re leaving
                    E                                 B
    And life will lose all its meaning
                    C#m
    (For the last time)

    Anti-Hero Chords/Lyrics/Chorus

    A         E
    It’s me, hi
    B                        C#m
    I’m the problem, it’s me
       A     E          B               C#m
    At tea time, everybody agrees
    A               E                               B
    I’ll stare directly at the sun
                     C#m
    But never in the mirror
    A                        E
    It must be exhausting
                     B                C#m
    Always rooting for the anti-hero

    Anti-Hero Chords/Lyrics/Instrumental

    A           E           B          C#m

    Anti-Hero Chords/Lyrics/Bridge

    A              E                                           B                    C#m
    I have this dream my daughter-in-law kills me for the money
    A                  E                                     B           C#m
    She thinks I left them in the will
    A                   E                                      B                              C#m
    The family gathers around and reads it and then someone screams out
    A                     E                                   B        C#m
    “She’s laughing up at us from hell!”
    A          E
    It’s me, hi,
    B                          C#m
    I’m the problem, it’s me
    A          E
    It’s me, hi
    B                            C#m
    I’m the problem, it’s me
    A          E     B     C#m
    It’s me, hi,      everybody agrees
                A          E            B       C#m
    Everybody agrees…

    Anti-Hero Chords/Lyrics/Chorus

    A         E
    It’s me, hi
    B                           C#m
    I’m the problem, it’s me
        A    E          B               C#m
    At tea time, everybody agrees
    A               E                              B
    I’ll stare directly at the sun
                     C#m
    But never in the mirror
    A                        E
    It must be exhausting
                    B                C#m
    Always rooting for the anti-hero

    [Outro]

    A           E           B          C#m
