Album : My 21st Century Blues

Key : Em

    [Intro]
N.c.
Sleazin’ and teasin’, I’m sittin’ on him
 
All of my diamonds are drippin’ on him
 
I met him at the bar, it was twelve or somethin’
 
I ordered two more wines, ’cause tonight I want him
 
 
[Verse]
    Em
A little context if you care to listen
 
I find myself in this shit position
     D
The man that I love sat me down last night
 
And he told me that it’s over, dumb decision
    Am
And I don’t wanna feel how my heart is rippin’
 
Fact, I don’t wanna feel, so I stick to sippin’
         D          Em
And I’m out on the town with a simple mission
        Bm
In my little black dress and this shit is sittin’
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
        Em
Just a heart broke bitch high heels six inch
 
In the back of the nightclub, sipping champagne
D
I don’t trust any of these bitches I’m with
 
In the back of the taxi sniffing cocaine
       Am
Drunk calls, drunk texts, drunk tears, drunk sex
 
I was looking for a man who’s on the same page
          D          Em
Now it’s back to the intro, back to the bar
        Bm                                 Em
To the Bentley, to the hotel, to my old ways
 
 
[Chorus]
Em                                          D
..’Cause I don’t wanna feel how I did last night
                                   Am
I don’t wanna feel how I did last night
  Am
Doctor, doctor, anything, please, doctor, doctor, have mercy on me
N.c
Take this pain away.
 
You’re asking me my symptoms, doctor. I don’t wanna feel
 
 
[Verse 2]
N.c
Toke this joint how I’m blowing this steam
 
Back to my ways like 2019
 
Not 24 hours since my ex did dead it
 
I got a new man on me, it’s about to get sweaty
 Em
Last night really was the cherry on the cake
 
Been some dark days lately and I’m findin’ it cripplin’
  D
Excuse my state I’m as high as your hopes that you’ll make it on my bed
 
Get me hot and sizzlin’
      Am
If I take a step back to see the glass half full
 
At least it’s the Prada two-piece that I’m trippin’ in
D Em                              Bm
..…And I’m already actin’ like a dick, know what I mean?
 
So you might as well stick it in
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
        Em
Just a heart broke bitch high heels six inch
 
In the back of the nightclub, sipping champagne
D
I don’t trust any of these bitches I’m with
                   N.c
In the back of the taxi sniffing cocaine
       Am
Drunk calls, drunk texts, drunk tears, drunk sex
 
I was looking for a man who’s on the same page
          D          Em
Now it’s back to the intro, back to the bar
        Bm                                 Em
To the Bentley, to the hotel, to my old ways
 
 
[Chorus]
Em                                          D
..’Cause I don’t wanna feel how I did last night
                                   Am
I don’t wanna feel how I did last night
  Am
Doctor, doctor, anything, please, doctor, doctor, have mercy on me
 
Take this pain away.
 
You’re asking me my symptoms, doctor. I don’t wanna feel (What?)
 
 
[Verse 3]
Em                                            D
..’Cause I don’t wanna feel like I felt last night
                                     Am
I don’t wanna feel like I felt last night
 
Be at peace with the things you can’t change
 
I’ll be naked when I leave and I was naked when I came, yeah
Em
..Out of reach, out of touch, too numb, I don’t feel no way
D
..Toast up, so what, street small but it go both ways
Am
..So, you’ll run, but you’ll never escape
D Em
..…Sunset in the maze
                     N.c                               Em
(You’re asking me my symptoms, doctor, I don’t wanna feel)
 
 
[Chorus]
Em                                   D
..I don’t wanna feel how I did last night
 
I don’t wanna feel how I did last night
  Am                                                             Em
Doctor, doctor, anything, please, doctor, doctor, have mercy on me
                     D
You’re asking me my symptoms, doctor I don’t wanna feel

[Outro]
Cm
Lipstick smudged like modern art
 
I don’t know where the fuck I am or who’s driving the fuckin' car
  Bb
Speeding down the highway sippin’
 
Mixing pills with the liquor ‘cause fuck these feelings
        Fm
I left everyone I love on read (Uh-uh)
 
Spilling secrets to the stranger in my bed (Uh-uh)
             Bb                           Cm
I remember nothing so there’s nothing to regret (Uh-uh)
                      Bb
Other than this 4/4 kick drum poundin’ in my head
