[G] [Em] [Bm] [F#] [G] [Em] [A] [G]
Verse 1:
Count me out like [G] sovereigns, payback for the [Em] good times
Right foot in the [Bm] roses, left foot on [F#] a landmine
I'm not gonna [G] be there tripping on the [Em] grapevine
They can sing the [A] words while I cry into the [G] bassline
Wear me out like [G] Prada, devil in my [Em] detail
I swear it's getting [Bm] harder even just [F#] to exhale
Backed up into [G] corners, bitter in the [Em] lens
I'm sick of tryna [A] hide it every time thеy [G] take mine
Chorus:
So [Em] stick to me
Stick to mе like [Bm] [A] caramel
[Em] Walk beside [G] me till you feel [Bm] nothin' as[G] well
Verse 2:
They ask [G] me, "Is it goin' good in the garden?"
[Em] Say, "I'm lost, but I beg no pardon"
[Bm] Up on the dice, but low on the cards
I [F#] try not to talk about how it's harder [G] now
Can I get a mirror side-stage?
Looking [Em] sideways at my own visage, gettin' worse
Every [A] time they try to shout my real name just to get a [G] rise from me
Acting like I'm never stressed out by the [G] hearsay
I guess that's what I [Em] get for tryna hide in the limelight
Guess that's what I [Bm] get for having 20/20 hindsight
Everybody [F#] wants eyes on 'em, I just wanna hear you sing that [G] top line
Pre-Chorus:
And if you don't think I [Em] mean it, then I understand [A]
But I'm still glad you [G] came, so let me see those hands
Chorus:
So [Bm] stick to me
Stick to me like [G] caramel
[D] Walk beside me till you feel [G] nothin' as [G] well
I'm [Bm] fallin' free of the [G] final parallel
The [D] sweetest dreams are [A] bitter
But there's [G] no one left to tell
Bridge:
[G] Too young to get [D] bitter over it [A] all
Too old to [F#] retaliate like [G] before
Too blessed to be [D] caught ungrateful, I [A] know
So I'll keep [Bm] dancin' along [A] to [G] the rhythm
This stage is a [D] prison -Too young to get bitter over it all-, a beautiful
[A] nightmare
a war of [D] attrition -Too old to retaliate like before-, I'll take what I'm [G] given
The deepest [D] incisions -Too blessed to
be caught ungrateful, I know-, I thought I
got [A] better
But maybe I [G] didn't
Bridge:
[D] [D] [F#m] [F#m] [D] [D] [Bm] [G]
-In [Em] these days of days- [D] Tell me, did I give you what you [D] came for?
-I [Em] wish it [Em] all away- [D] Terrified to answer my own front door
-I [Em] thought [Em] things [Em] had changed- [D] Missin' my wings in a realm of angels
-But [G] [F#m] everything's [A] the same-
Outro:
So I'll keep [A] dancin' along to the [G] rhythm
This stage is a [Em] prison, a beautiful [Bm] nightmare
a war of [F#] attrition, I'll take what [G] I'm given
The deepest [D] incisions, I thought I got [A] better
But maybe I [G] didn't
