D Growing up, I never had a lot of money A Never had a phone, always was a little hungry F#m Used to find it hard to sleep When i could hear my mother sobbing E D I was 10 back then, I didnt have a room Had to buy used shoes A I hid behind tunes to avoid abuse F#m And everytime I fell, I would blame it on myself E Even if it was an accident D A Maybe, its not what I want F#m Oh, I've seen better days, E and the moment fucking sucks D A But I'll be damned if I don't stop, F#m and, honestly, why not? E When nobody gives a fuck? Chorus: D A Sometimes I just can't help myself F#m I wanna give up trying and start doing something E else D A Sometimes I just get overwhelmed F#m I know it's in my mind, E but I think I need some help I was an outcast Thrown out to dry and get laughed at Too shy to talk about home I always thought life was supposed to be cold And, oh, I've been so lost without hope I got a window in my head, it's a casket You know I be wishing I was dead, but I mask it Maybe it's not what I want Oh, I've seen better days, and the moment fucking sucks But I'll be damned if I don't stop, and, honestly, why not? When nobody gives a fuck? Chorus: But sometimes I just can't help myself I wanna give up trying and start doing something else Sometimes I just get overwhelmed I know it's in my mind, but I think I need some help D Because it’s all I know A My hands around my throat F#m E Pray that I won’t let go this time around D A But every single time I try to shut my eyes F#m E I see the reason why I’m not alone Chorus: Sometimes I just can't But sometimes I just can't help myself I wanna give up trying and start doing something else Sometimes I just get overwhelmed I know it's in my mind, but I think I need some help Sometimes I just can't help myself (I think we got it) You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA D E F#m Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
