Verse 1
If I could [G] give this all back
I would be home in the [D] morning [Em]
I'd wake up in a cold sweat [Em]
Take a flight back to the city I was [D] born in [G]
[G] And I would wipe myself clean
Of what I knew was [D] unimportant [Em]
I'd want typical things
I'd try to fit back into all my old [D] clothing
Pre-Chorus
[C] And I would prove myself wrong
That [Em] all along, the problem was me [D]
[D] With all my bitterness gone
Happy, I'd be
Chorus
[G] I'll move back home forever
I'll feed the dogs and I'll put all
[C] My pieces back together where they belong
And I'll say, [Em] "I'm a mess, [D] I'm a mess
Oh [G] God, I'm a mess" [C]
And [G] I'll take 89 to Boston
See my love and I'll help her
[C] Set up her new apartment
And we'll get drunk and she'll say
[Em] "Shit, you're a mess, [D] you're a mess
Good [G] God, you're a mess [C]
[Em] Oh, you're a mess, [D] you're a mess
Good [G] God"
Verse 2
[G] So I paid off my debts but I found the world [D] boring [Em]
So I called my old friends
but they only ever ask me how [D] tour is [G]
And there's still weight on my
back, I just [C] try to [D] ignore it [Em]
I guess the stage was my mask
I forgot the way I looked before I [D] wore it
Pre-Chorus
[C] And I would prove myself wrong
That [Em] all along, the problem was me [D]
[D] With all my bitterness gone
Happy, I'll be
Chorus
[G] I'll move back home forever
I'll feed the dogs and I'll put all
[C] My pieces back together where they belong
And I'll say, [Em] "I'm a mess, [D] I'm a mess
Oh [G] god, I'm a mess" [C]
And [G] I'll take 89 to Boston
See my love and I'll help her
[C] Set up her new apartment
And we'll get drunk and she'll say
[Em] "Shit, you're a mess, [D] you're a mess
Good [G] God, you're a mess [C]
[Em] Oh, you're a mess, [D] you're a mess"
Bridge
That's [C] not what I had hoped
Now I find comfort in the cold
Chorus
[G] I'll move back home forever
I'll feed the dogs and I'll put all
[C] My pieces back together where they belong
And I'll say, [Em] "I'm a mess, [D] I'm a mess
Oh [G] God, I'm a mess" [C]
And [G] I'll take 89 to Boston
See my love and I'll help her
[C] Set up her new apartment
And we'll get drunk and she'll say
[Em] "Shit, you're a mess, [D] you're a mess
Good [G] God, you're a mess [C]
[Em] Oh, you're a mess, [D] you're a mess
Good [G] God"
