Capo: 2nd fret
[Verse 1]
G
I gamble big for the smallest pot, I know it's not
Em
Enough to change what's been going on, but it's all I
got
C
misjudge and switch up, from target to target
G
Miscalculate what it is that I want
Em
Spread My Wings, Writer’s Block
D
dead by things made Up
[Chorus]
G
And, if I'm honest
I think I'm beginning to question how
Em
much I want this
Overloaded serial stresser, I'm sitting
c
nauseous
Panic on a loop in my head, I'm
G
chronically cautious
G
To keep it simple
I think I've been willingly following
Em
every impulse
Picturing a future, then tossing it out
C
the window
Suffocate the fire I started right when
G
it kindles
[Verse 2]
G
The source of my serotonin is only digital
Em
my reality's fading, I guess it's typical
C
switch back, it's mismatched, dopamine
G
whiplash, it hits fast, controlling me
Em
Sitting in silence, I'm all Beat Up
D
Get My Thousand Cuts
[Chorus]
G
So, if I'm honest
I think I'm beginning to question how
Em
much I want this
Overloaded serial stresser, I'm sitting
C
nauseous
Panic on a loop in my head, I'm
G
chronically cautious
[Outro]
G
To keep it simple
I think I've been willingly following
Em
every impulse
Picturing a future, then tossing it out
C
the window
Suffocate the fire I started right when
G
it kindles
G
If I’m Honest
Em
Oh If I’m Honest
C G
I gamble big for the smallest part, I know it's not
Enough to change what's been going on, but it's all I got
I misjudge and switch up, from target to target
Miscalculate what it is that I wanted
Swimming in circles, in search of substance
In shallow waters, that give me nothing
How can optimists be cynical?
So, if I'm honest
I think I'm beginning to question how much I want this
Overloaded serial stresser, I'm sitting nauseous
Panic on a loop in my head, I'm chronically cautious
How can I get off this?
To keep it simple
I think I've been willingly following every impulse
Picturing a future, then tossing it out the window
Suffocate the fire I started right when it kindles
Passionate but fickle
The source of my serotonin is only digital
'Cause my reality's fading, I guess it's typical
Can't switch back, it's mismatched in dopamine
Get whiplash, it hits fast, controlling me
Swerving in silence, I'm all alone
In traffic, I'm trapped and I can't find home
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm an optimist who's cynical
(That's f'king miserable)
So, if I'm honest
I think I'm beginning to question how much I want this
Overloaded serial stresser, I'm sitting nauseous
Panic on a loop in my head, I'm chronically cautious
How can I get off this?
To keep it simple
I think I've been willingly following every impulse
Picturing a future, then tossing it out the window
Suffocate the fire I started right when it kindles
Passionate but fickle
