Em chordEm Em chordEm A chordA C chordC A chordA

[Verse 1]
Em chordEm Em chordEm
I grew up as your usual suburbanite,
G chordG A chordA
a tiny town in Massachusetts, overwhelmingly white.
Em chordEm Em chordEm
I went to church on Sundays in a suit and a tie,
G chordG A chordA
then spent my free time watching Family Guy.
Em chordEm Em chordEm G chordG
I started doing comedy when I was just a sheltered kid,
A chordA
I wrote offensive shit, and I said it:
Em chordEm Em chordEm A chordA
Father, please forgive me, for I did not realize what I did
C chordC A chordA
or that I'd live to regret it.

[Pre-Chorus]
C chordC G chordG Em chordEm
Times are changing, and I'm getting old.
G chordG
Are you gonna hold me accountable?
Em chordEm G chordG
My bed is empty and I'm getting cold.
Em chordEm G chordG N.C.
Isn't anybody gonna hold me accountable? Uh



[Chorus]
Em chordEm Em chordEm
I'm problematic (He's a problem),
Em chordEm A chordA
when I was seventeen, on Halloween
Em chordEm Em chordEm
I dressed up as Aladdin (He's a problem),
A chordA N.C.
I did not darken my skin, but still, it feels weird in [Solo] hindsight.

[Verse 2]
Em chordEm Em chordEm
I want to show you how I'm growing as a person, but first
G chordG A chordA
I feel I must address the lyrics from the previous verse.
Em chordEm Em chordEm
I tried to hide behind my childhood, and that's not okay,
G chordG A chordA
my actions are my own, I won't explain them away.
Em chordEm Em chordEm G chordG
I've done a lot of self-reflecting since I started singing this song,
A chordA
I was totally wrong when I said it:
Em chordEm Em chordEm A chordA
Father, please forgive me, for I did not realize what I did
C chordC A chordA
or that I'd live to regret it.

[Pre-Chorus]
C chordC G chordG Em chordEm
Times are changing and I'm getting old.
Em chordEm
Are you gonna hold me accountable?
C chordC G chordG
My bed is empty and I'm getting cold.
Em chordEm Em chordEm N.C. N.C.
Isn't anybody gonna hold me accountable? Uh

[Chorus]
Em chordEm Em chordEm
I'm problematic (He's a problem)
Em chordEm A chordA
I just remembered that Aladdin costume's
Em chordEm Em chordEm A chordA C chordC
in my mother's attic (He's a problem) I'm gonna go home and burn it
A chordA N.C.
or not burn it. Is burning it bad? What should I do with it?

[Bridge]
C chordC G chordG
And I've been totally awful,
D chordD Em chordEm G/D chordG/D
my closet is chock-full of stuff that is vaguely shitty.
C chordC G chordG
All of it was perfectly lawful,
D chordD Em chordEm G/D chordG/D
just not very thoughtful at all and just really shitty.
C chordC G chordG
And I've been totally awful,
D chordD Em chordEm G/D chordG/D
my closet is chock-full of stuff that is vaguely shitty.
C chordC G chordG
All of it was perfectly lawful,
D chordD N.C.
just not very thoughtful at all and just really ...

[Outro]
G chordG Em chordEm
And I'm really fucking sorry,
Bm chordBm Bm chordBm
bitch, I'm trying to listen, shit, I’ve been complicit.
G chordG Em chordEm
Sorry,
Bm chordBm Bm chordBm
if I'm gonna catch up, first, I gotta fess up.
G chordG Em chordEm Bm chordBm Bm chordBm
Sorry,
G chordG Em chordEm Bm chordBm Bm chordBm
sorry.
