Capo 3
 
[Intro]
              G
I don't wanna go out tonight
         Bm                 D
Find a show on a Saturday night
            G
I'd rather stay here and wait
     Bm                    D
Sit alone, playing video games
        G
I got enough friends
        Bm                    D
No one else needs to know my name
              G
And yeah, I know my face is aging
          Bm               D
But it's okay, yeah it's okay
 
[PreChorus]
         G
But it's so cold
 
Humanity grows old
               Bm                  D
The man in me soaks up American Blood
         G
And I'm so scared
 
That all of my worst fears
                  Bm                   D
Have followed me out here, I'm mad at myself
 
[Chorus]
                  G
I try to keep my head up, my head up
                Bm                      D
I try to keep myself from feeling this way
                     G
I'm tired and I'm fucked up, in this rest stop
                 Bm                       D
It's only in my head but it's not gonna change
 
[Verse]
         G
It goes on and on, so electric
        Bm                  D
Like a full fledged panic inside
        G
And I know you said, that it's not my fault
         Bm                        D
But the truth is just so easy to hide
 
[Chorus]
                 G
I gotta keep my head up, my head up
               Bm                   D
I gotta keep myself from feeling ashamed
                    G
I'm tired and I'm fucked up and I can't stop
                  Bm                      D
It's only in my head but it's not gonna change
 
G  Bm  D  
(x2)
 
[Bridge]
           Bm
Well, it burns slow
 
Somewhere inside and nobody knows that I'm here
 
Stoned
                    A
Drinking alone and out of control
 
[Chorus]
                 G
I gotta keep my head up, my head up
               Bm                   D
I gotta keep myself from feeling ashamed
                    G
I'm crying 'cause I'm fucked up, baby I know that
                  Bm                      D       A
It's only in my head but it's not gonna change
 
G  Bm  A  
(x2)  
G
