[Intro]
C G
Tonight, my mother said that I
Bb
Should never go outside
F
That I should run and hide
Ab C
Donate my brains to charity
A one, two, three
[Verse 1]
C G
So, I'm lost in the supermarket shopping for my sense of self
Bb
I wandered down the aisles tryna figure out where I disappeared to
F
What will I adhere to? And what could I appear to be?
C
And maybe I'm with the strawberries, alone on the shelf
G
Because they breathe and bleed, and they're sweet like me
Bb
They hold my hand and they make it seem that right now
F
In this moment, I don't need to be afraid
[Chorus]
C G
Tonight, my mother said that I
Bb
Should never go outside
F
That I should run and hide
Ab C
Donate my brains to charity
C G
I, I'd rather go blind
Bb
Than to look into your eyes
F
And tell you that I lied
Ab C
Donate my brains to charity
[Verse 2]
C
So I made myself sad ‘cause I feel comfortable here
G
So I made myself mad because I don't want to steer
Bb
To be off the rails is to live without fear
F
But when you start feeling nothing, nothing becomes clear
C
So, please speak, please laugh, please dance, please cry
G
Feel every fuckin' tear that falls from your eye
Bb
‘Cause to feel is to breathe and to fear is to be free
F
And to be free is what it means to be successful to me
[Chorus]
C G
Tonight, my mother said that I
Bb
Should never go outside
F
That I should run and hide
Ab
Donate my brains to charity
C G
I, I'd rather go blind
Bb
Than to look into your eyes
F
And tell you that I lied
Ab C
Donate my brains to charity
[Post-Chorus]
C G
Who'd've known, Who'd've known?
Bb
That I put into my phone
F
Love, I'm never coming home
Ab C
Donate my brains to charity
C G
I just feel that I'm not real
Bb
I put my hands on the steering wheel
F
And if I crash, I'm made of steel
Ab C
Donate my brains to charity
[Bridge]
C
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
G
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Bb
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
F
La-la, yeah
C
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
G
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Bb
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
F
La-la, yeah
[Chorus]
C G
Tonight, my mother said that I
Bb
Should never go outside
F
That I should run and hide
Ab
Donate my brains to charity
C G
I, I'd rather go blind
Bb
Than to look into your eyes
F
And tell you that I lied
Ab C
Donate my brains to charity
[Post-Chorus]
C G
(La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
Who'd've known, Who'd've known?
Bb
(La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
That I put into my phone
F
Love, I'm never coming home
Ab C
Donate my brains to charity
C G
(La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
I just feel that I'm not real
Bb
(La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
I put my hands on the steering wheel
F
And if I crash, I'm made of steel
Donate my brains to charity
