[Verse 1]

G                                       E
You've got a boyfriend, but that don't matter
                C                     G
and it won't keep him from what he's after
             G                  E
He wants to make you his new obsession
            C                            G
before you graduate from post-college depression

[Chorus 1]

              G                           E
You pride yourself as an awkward type of girl,
               C                       G
but you're a self-hating socialite, admit it
            G                              E
You wear a badge of the hardships you've endured 
         C                        G
and you don't let your company forget it

[Verse 2]

G                            E
Put on a record, he doesn't get it;
            C                           G
"I'm not a fan of shallow indie." He admitted.
             G                 E
You're not offended when he confesses
           C                               G
that he laughs inside at all your vintage dresses

[Chorus 2]

G                                          E
Convince yourself you're not part of his deceit, 
                C                 G
he knows he's only a novelty distraction
           G                      E
A slain regret and a promise to repeat, 
           C                    G
but will you even get the satisfaction?

[Solo]

G         E         C         G
G         E         C         G

G         E         C         G
G         E         C         G
