    [Intro]
    |N.C. |
    (Drums)
    |D              |D              |E              |E              |

    Messy Chords/Lyrics/Verse 1

    DM7
    You know I’m impatient
                                       E
    So why would you leave me waiting outside the station?
                                                                                 DM7
    When it was like minus 4 degrees and I

    I get what you’re saying
              E
    I just really don’t want to hear it right now
                                                                             DM7
    Can you shut up for like once in your life?

    Listen to me
                                                           E
    I took your nice words of advice about

    How you think I’m gonna die

    Lucky if I turned 33
                                   DM7
    Okay, so yeah, I smoke like a chimney

    I’m not skinny and I pull a Britney
                            E
    Every other week

    But cut me some slack
                                                    DM7
    Who do you want me to be?

    Messy Chords/Lyrics/Chorus

    DM7
    ‘Cause I’m too messy
                                                     E
    And then I’m too fucking clean

    You told me, “Get a job”
                                                                 DM7
    And you ask where the hell I’ve been

    And I’m too perfect
                                      E
    ‘Til I open my big mouth

    I want to be me
                            DM7
    Is that not allowed?

    And I’m too clever
                                                     E
    And then I’m too fucking dumb

    You hate it when I cry
                                                         DM7
    Unless it’s that time of the month

    And I’m too perfect
                                                E
    ‘Til I show you that I’m not

    A thousand people I could be for you
                                                      DM7
    And you hate the fucking lot
                                             E
    You hate the fucking lot
                                             DM7
    You hate the fucking lot
             E           E
    Hey, hey

    Messy Chords/Lyrics/Verse 2

    D
    It’s taking you ages
                             E
    You still don’t get the hint

    I’m not asking for pages

    But one text or two would be nice
    D
    And please, don’t pull those faces
                      E
    When I’ve, I working like every day
                                                             D
    It’s just one bottle of wine or two

    But hey, you can’t even talk
                                                                     E
    You smoke weed just to help you sleep

    Then why you’re out getting stoned at 4 o’clock
                                                                   D
    And then you come home to me

    And don’t say hello
                                       E
    ‘Cause I got high again
                                                                 DM7
    And forgot to fold my clothes….clothes

    Messy Chords/Lyrics/Chorus

    DM7
    ‘Cause I’m too messy
                                                     E
    And then I’m too fucking clean

    You told me, “Get a job”
                                                                 DM7
    And you ask where the hell I’ve been

    And I’m too perfect
                                       E
    ‘Til I open my big mouth

    I want to be me
                            DM7
    Is that not allowed?

    And I’m too clever
                                                      E
    And then I’m too fucking dumb

    You hate it when I cry
                                                         DM7

    And I’m too perfect
                                                E
    ‘Til I show you that I’m not

    A thousand people I could be for you
                                                      DM7
    And you hate the fucking lot
                                             E
    You hate the fucking lot
                                             DM7
    You hate the fucking lot
