Intro: | A E | Gbm E | D A | Bm7 |

Verse 1:
A           E     Gbm
 Come home, get   high
                                 E   D
Forget about the time between my highlights
                 A     Bm7
Yeah, I know but I'm  fine, it's been a rough time
A            E     Gbm
 Poker face, in    play
                                E  D
Otherwise it makes me think I'm unsafe
              A      Bm7
Yeah, I know, it's strange, wish it wasn't this way

Pre-chorus:
    D               A            Bm7
But no one seems to know any better, I designed it that way
  D               A            Bm7
I know it seems I have it together, but

Chorus:
A              E        Gbm
Just because I carry it well
                E     D           A                Bm7
Doesn't mean it isn't heavy and I don't need some help
                 A            E         Gbm
I know I keep it locked down, but all I want now
            E       D                A           Bm7
Is somebody who can tell me how it's gonna turn out
                 D            A          Bm7
'Cause I thought I'd be doing better by now
          D            A          Bm7
I thought I'd be doing better by now but don't I carry it well?

Verse 2:
A                                E                Gbm
 I'm grateful but impatient, get hateful, but I'm sided
                                       E
So those who mean the most who get the best of me
D                                         A        Bm7
 And I can't come back home and fight the rest of me, it's best to leave

Pre-chorus:
       D               A            Bm7
'Cause no one seems to know any better and I designed it it that way
  D               A            Bm7
I know it seems I have it together, but

Chorus:
A              E        Gbm
Just because I carry it well
                E     D           A                Bm7
Doesn't mean it isn't heavy and I don't need some help
                 (nc)   A     E         Gbm
I know I keep it locked down, but all I want now
            E       D                A           Bm7
Is somebody who can tell me how it's gonna turn out
                 D            A          Bm7
'Cause I thought I'd be doing better by now
          D            A          Bm7                      A
I thought I'd be doing better by now but don't I carry it well?

Post-chorus:
        E        Gbm
Don't I carry it well?
E       D                        A      Bm7
 'Cause no one seems to know any better

Chorus:
A              E        Gbm
Just because I carry it well
                E     D           A                Bm7
Doesn't mean it isn't heavy and I don't need some help
         (nc)    A            E         Gbm
I know I keep it locked down, but all I want now
            E       D                A           Bm7
Is somebody who can tell me how it's gonna turn out (How it's gonna turn out)
                 D            A          Bm7
'Cause I thought I'd be doing better by now
          D            A          Bm7
I thought I'd be doing better by now
                     A
But don't I carry it well?

Post-chorus:
        E        Gbm
Don't I carry it well?
E       D                        A      Bm7
 'Cause no one seems to know any better
