D         Dmaj7           G
Try your best to keep composure
       Em                       G C A
Don't give up all of your smiles
D     Dmaj7                  G
Push away and they'll come closer
      Em                     G C A
Ain't been touched in a while

    Dmaj7
Sometimes
Gmaj7                                  Em G C A
I get too excited, stars behind my eyelids
D
Sometimes
     G
I'm nodding in agreement,
                    D   Em  G C A
I don't agree they see it

Chorus:
         D  G
Play it cool
Em                     C A
Do a favor just for you
  D  G
Cool
    Em                C A
Be colder just for you

Try your best to calm me down
Don't give them all of yourself
'Cause one day, they won't be around
Can't go to them for help

Sometimes
I see myself five foot four,
playing in my room alone
Sometimes
I see myself amused in thought,
a nigga had no friends at all
