Intro:
Cm F Bb Gm
Eb F Bb Gm

Verse:
Eb                     F
I'm nearing the end of my fourth year
Bb                             Gm
I feel like I've been lacking, crying too many tears
Eb                        F
Everyone seemed to say it was so great
Bb                      Gm
But did I miss out, was it a huge mistake
 
Eb                      F
I can't help the fact I like to be alone
Bb                            Gm
It might sound kinda sad, but that's just what I seem to know
Eb                      F
I tend to handle things usually by myself
Bb                       Gm
And I can't ever seem to try and ask for help

Chorus:
Csus4             F
I'm sitting here, crying in my prom dress
Bb                       Gm
I'd be the prom queen if crying was a contest
Csus4                   F
Makeup is running down, feelings are all around
Bb                    Gm
How did I get here, I need to know

Post-Chorus:
Cm                    F
I guess I maybe had a couple expectations
Bb                       Gm
Thought I'd get to them, but no I didn't
Cm                              F
I guess I thought that prom was gonna be fun
            Bb                       Gm
But now I'm sitting on the floor and all I wanna do is run

Verse:
Eb                           F
I keep collections of masks upon my wall
   Bb                         Gm
To try and stop myself from revealing it all
Eb                      F
Affecting others is the last thing I would do
  Bb                      Gm
I keep to myself though I want to break through

Eb                      F
I hold so many small regrets
Bb                          Gm
And what-ifs down inside my head
Eb                          F
Some confidence it couldn't hurt me
Bb             Gm
My demeanor is often misread

Chorus:
Csus4             F
I'm sitting here, crying in my prom dress
Bb                       Gm
I'd be the prom queen if crying was a contest
Csus4                   F
Makeup is running down, feelings are all around
Bb                    Gm
How did I get here, I need to know

Post-Chorus:
Cm                    F
I guess I maybe had a couple expectations
Bb                       Gm
Thought I'd get to them, but no I didn't
Cm                              F
I guess I thought that prom was gonna be fun
            Bb                             Gm              Cm
But now I'm sitting on the floor and all I wanna do is run

Bridge:
F                   Bb Gm                    Cm
  All I wanna do is ru-un, all I wanna do is run
F                   Bb  Gm
  All I wanna do is run

Chorus:
Csus4             F
I'm sitting here, crying in my prom dress
Bb                       Gm
I'd be the prom queen if crying was a contest
Csus4                   F
Makeup is running down, feelings are all around
Bb                    Gm
How did I get here, I need to know

Post-Chorus:
Cm                    F
I guess I maybe had a couple expectations
Bb                       Gm
Thought I'd get to them, but no I didn't

Outro:
Cm                              F
I guess I thought that prom was gonna be fun
            Bb                             Gm            Cm
But now I'm sitting on the floor and all I wanna do is run
F                   Bb
  All I wanna do is run

The original chords are Am, D7, G, and Em played with a capo on the third fret. This comes directly from the artist.

oh frankie

michelleyun99

Instead of Csus4 a Cm works better 🙂

+2 is the easiest for beginners 🙂 <3

gerard way´s eyeliner

-3 is really easy
the song sounds better, in my opinion, if you play Eb instead of Csus4, and the same things for the other variations
i love this songgggg!

Hi! I just wanted to let you know that his song is usually played on the third fret and the chords are Am, D7, G, and Em. The artist made a tutorial and here’s the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZiIf-mseWkc

membcwcng

honestly, just go for Cm, F7, Bb and then Gm for the whole song
no need for capos or anything

mandi

if you don’t have a capo, you can tune your ukulele a half step up and play the -1 chords.

kirstin g

the strumming pattern that felt natural to me was down – up – down – down – up

also it sounds nicer if you replace Csus4 with Cm throughout the song 🙂
