Quarter Life Crisis Tabulatur von Taylor Bickett (für Baryton)

Schlagmuster: d-du-u-du

[Verse 1]
F
I’m terrified of rejection
F
But I get high off attention
Bb
I drink my coffee light
Bb
Cause I’m not fcking pretentious
F
Say that I read for fun
F
But haven’t read in months
Bb
Say that I’m settling down
Bb
But I blacked out at brunch

[Pre-Chorus]
Dm                  C
I swear sixteen was yesterday
F                     Bb
But now I’m closer to twenty-eight
Dm                     C
I’m focusing all of my energy on
Bb
Just staying awake
[Chorus]
F
I don’t mean to keep
C               Bb
Making it about me
Bb
Everybody feels like this 
at twenty-three
F
I know I’m not unique
C
But I’m a drama queen
Bb
I don’t know why I’m surprised
Bb                      F
Its just a quarter-life crisis

[Verse 2]
F
I’m constantly symptomatic
F
Mom says its psychosomatic
Bb
That I’m the girl that cried headache
Bb
I’m melodramatic as hell
F
Where’s all the talent that I had last decade?
Bb
Another gited kid that burnt out in the tenth grade

[Pre-Chorus]
Dm                    C
Swear that feels like yesterday
F                Bb
I’m just a tired old cliche
Dm                     C
I’m focusing all of my energy on
Bb
Just being ok

[Chorus]
F                    C
I don’t mean to keep making it about me
Bb
Everybody feels like this at twenty-three
F
I know I’m not unique
C
But I’m a drama queen
Bb
I don’t know why I’m surprised
Bb                      F
Its just a quarter-life crisis

C  Dm             Bb           F
Oh oh, its just a quarter-life crisis

C  Dm  Bb

[Bridge]
                 Dm       C
And I just found out that someone from my
               F
high school is dead
Dm                 C              F      Dm
And another one is married with a kid
        C                         F
And the rest are all lying on the internet
  C                 Dm    F
I fall for it every time
              Bb
It feels like I’m falling behind

[Chorus]
F                    C
I don’t mean to keep making 
it about me
Bb
Everybody feels like this 
at twenty-three
F                      C
I know I’m not unique, but 
I’m a drama queen
F                    C
I don’t mean to keep making
 it about me
Bb
Everybody feels like 
this at twenty-three
F                      C
I know I’m not unique, but
 I’m a drama queen
Bb
I don’t know why I’m surprised, 
its just a quarter-life
C
