[Intro] E G A Am

[Verse 1]
E G A Am                E G A Am
Julian is gonna take my files
C
Every woman that I’ve slept with,
A                Am
every friendship I’ve neglected,
C                
didn’t call when grandma died,
A                Am          
I spent my money getting drunk and high
C
I’ve done things unprotected,
A              Am
proceeded to drive home wasted,
C
bought things to win over siblings -
A                Am                 C
I’ve said awful things, such awful things

[Chorus]
A        Am        C
and now, now it’s out

There!

A       Am
and now, now it’s out

E G A Am (x2)

[Verse 2]
E G A Am                E G A Am
Julian, he’s gonna take my files
C
Telling people jokes to shut them up,
A           Am
resenting people that I love,
C
sleep in til two then doing shit,
A            Am
just stay in bed and later lie about it,
C
obsessing over graying hair,
A                 Am
knowing just what people wanna hear,
C
binging on unearned attention -
A               Am                   C
I’ve said awful things, such awful things
A        Am       C       
and now, now it’s out

There!

[Chorus]
A        Am       C
and now, now it’s out

[Verse 3]
C
I came by at seven in the morning
A                     Am
seven in the morning, seven in the morning
C
I came by at seven in the morning
A                  Am
I said, baby, I’m finally succumbing
C
said something dumb like I’m tired of running
A                 Am
tired of running, tired of running
C                 
Let’s put a baby in the oven -
A                    Am
wouldn’t I make the ideal husband?

E G A Am (x4)

End on E
