Verse 1:
C                   G
i am hanging in the bathroom
       F             G      Am
at the biggest party of the fall
        C                  G
i could stay right here or disappear
    F             G          C
and nobody'd even notice at all

C                  G
i'm a creeper in a bathroom
         F           G       Am
cause my buddy kinda left me alone
        C                          G
but i'd rather fake pee than stand awkwardly
   F                  G          C
or pretend to check a text on my phone

Pre-Chorus 1:
Em
Everything felt fine
                     G
when i was half of a pair
                Em
and through no fault of mine
                      F          G
there's no other half there

Chorus 1:
              C             G
Now I'm just Michael in the bathroom
F              G             C
Michael in the bathroom at a party
            F       G
Forget how long its been
         C              G
I'm just Michael in the bathroom
F              G             Am
Michael in the bathroom at a party
        F          G
No, you can't come in
    F                        G
I'm waiting it out 'til it's time to leave
    Am                      D
and picking at grout while I softly grieve
         C               G
I'm just Michael who you don't know
Am            D
Michael flying Solo
F              G             C
Michael in the bathroom by himself
C    G    F    G    C    G    F    G
All by himself

Verse 2:
C                     G
I am hiding, but he's out there
        F             G     Am
Just ignoring all our history
         C                    G
Memories get erased and I'll get replaced
        F             G         C
With a newer, cooler version of me

Pre-Chorus 2:
Em
And I hear a drunk girl
                                      G
Singing along to Whitney through the door -I wanna dance with somebody!-
       Em
And my feelings sink cuz it makes me think
            F                                 G
Now there's no one to make fun of drunk girls with anymore

Chorus 2:
             C             G
Now its just Michael in the bathroom
F              G             C
Michael in the bathroom at a party
          F       G
I half regret the beers
         C              G
I'm just Michael in the bathroom
F              G             Am
Michael in the bathroom at a party
            F       G
As I choke back the tears
             F                     G
I'll wait as long as I need til my face is dry
             Am                           D
Or I'll just blame it on weed or something in my eye
         C               G
I'm just Michael who you don't know
Am            D
Michael flying Solo
F              G             C
Michael in the bathroom by himself
C    G    F    G    C    G    F    G

Bridge:

Here in this teenage battlezone
Eb      Eb      Eb      Eb
Clang, clang, clang, clang
Ab          Bb
I feel the pressure blowing up
Eb     Eb     Eb     Eb
Bang, bang, bang, bang
Ab          Bb
My big mistake was showing up
E      E      E      E
Splash, splash, splash, splash
A           B          Am
I throw some water in my face
                     D
And I am in a better place
                    F
I go to open up the door
                      G
But I can't hear knocking
    C
Anymore
C    G    F    G    C    G    F    G

Pre-Chorus 3:
            Em
And I can't help but yearn
                G
For a different time
            Em
And then I look in the mirror and the present is clear
            F          G
And there's no denying I'm just

Chorus 2:
             C             G
......
F              G             C
........................At a party
           F       G
Is there a sadder sight
             C             G
{humming}
F              G             Am
Michael in the bathroom at a party
          F       G
This is a heinous night
         F                              G
I wish I stayed at home in bed watching cable xxxx
          Am                             D
Or wish I offed myself instead wish I was never born
         C               G
I'm just Michael who's a loner
   Am          D
So he must be a stoner
C               G
Rides a PT Cruiser
Am          D
God he's such a loser
C               G
Michael flying Solo
Am          D
Who you think that you know
F              G             C
Michael in the bathroom by himself
C    G    F    G    C    G    F    G
All by himself
C    G    F    G    C    G    F    G
All by himself
C             G       Am   D
All you know about me is my name
F             G             
Awesome party I'm so glad I came
