Intro: D A Gbm Dbm7

Verse 1:
D
Growing up I never had a lot of money
A
I never had a phone

Always was a little hungry
        Gbm
Used to find it hard to sleep

When I could hear my mother sobbing
      Dbm7
I was 10 back then
                D
I didn't have a room

Had to buy used shoes
             A
I hid behind tunes

To avoid abuse
                 Gbm
And every time I fell

I would blame it on myself
                  Dbm7
Even if it was an accident

Pre-chorus:
D                     A
Maybe it's not what I want
                    Gbm
Oh I've seen better days
                       Dbm7
And the moment xxxxxxx sucks
    D                         A
But I'll be damned if I don't stop
                   Gbm
And, honestly, why not
                    Dbm7
When nobody gives a xxxx

Chorus:
                           D
But sometimes I just can't help myself
A                Gbm
 I wanna give up trying
                          Dbm7
And start doing something else
                     D
Sometimes I just get overwhelmed
A                 Gbm
 I know it's in my mind
                        Dbm7
But I think I need some help

Verse 2:
                           D
Cuz sometimes I just can't help myself
                A
I was an outcast
                                    Gbm
Thrown out to dry and get laughed at

Too shy to talk about home
  Dbm7
I always thought life was supposed to be cold
    D
And oh I've been so
A
Lost without hope
Gbm
 I got a window in my head, it's a casket
Dbm7
You know I been wishing I was dead, but I mask it

Pre-chorus:
D                     A
Maybe it's not what I want
                    Gbm
Oh I've seen better days
                       Dbm7
And the moment xxxxxxx sucks
    D                         A
But I'll be damned if I don't stop
                   Gbm
And, honestly, why not
                    Dbm7
When nobody gives a xxxx

Chorus:
                           D
But sometimes I just can't help myself
A                Gbm
 I wanna give up trying
                          Dbm7
And start doing something else
                     D
Sometimes I just get overwhelmed
A                 Gbm
 I know it's in my mind
                        Dbm7
But I think I need some help

Bridge:
             D
Because it's all I know
          A
My hands around my throat
            Gbm
Pray that I won't let go
             Dbm7
This time around
          D
But every single time
         A
I try to shut my eyes
          Gbm
I see the reason why
          Dbm7
I'm not alone

Chorus:
                 (nc)
Sometimes I just can't
                           D
But sometimes I just can't help myself
A                Gbm
 I wanna give up trying
                          Dbm7
And start doing something else
                     D
Sometimes I just get overwhelmed
A                 Gbm
 I know it's in my mind
                        Dbm7
But I think I need some help
                       A
Sometimes I just can’t help myself
