             A
It's taken two different therapists
                    C#m
To tell me what to do to help me wrestle with
                   Bm
The bar I set for love and what I do with it
              D            Dm
I want it so bad, but I'm bad at it

Used to love a Friday night in Malibu
And now I never go because I think of you
Never meant to ruin it but you always do
I can't get away, get away from you

         F#m
Oh, and somewhere
                      E
There's a balance in self-care
                        D
And wanting someone to be there
                 E
Is it normal to be scared?

Chorus:
       A
'Cause I should hate you
                C#m
Probably do, but I don't want to
      Bm
All I do is forgive you
       D          E
Is it normal that I do?
Everyone I love is worried
All you've ever done is hurt me
And it hurts me to love you
Is it normal that I do? (Do, do, do, do)

Gotten so good at recovery
Reading all the books and doin' everything
Even give advice like I know anything
But I'm so afraid to heal that it's breaking me

Oh, and somewhere (Somewhere)
There's a balance in self-care (Self-care)
And wanting someone to be there (There)
Is it normal to be scared?

Chorus:
'Cause I should hate you
Probably do, but I don't want to
All I do is forgive you
Is it normal that I do?
Everyone I love is worried
All you've ever done is hurt me
And it hurts me to love you
Is it normal that I do?

(Nah-nah-nah, normal)
(Tell me I'm normal)
(I know I'm normal)
(So tell me I'm normal)

      F#m                       E
Is it normal to lie to all my friends every night?
      Bm                       E
Is it normal to try to tell myself I'm alright?
      F#m                         E
Is it normal to say that I still want you that way?
           D
And is it normal to stay
             E
in case you come back some day?

Chorus:
I should hate you
Probably do, but I don't want to
All I do is forgive you
Is it normal that I do?
Everyone I love is worried
All you've ever done is hurt me
And it hurts me to love you
Is it normal that I do?

(Nah-nah-nah, normal)
(Tell me I'm normal)
(I know I'm normal)
(So tell me I'm normal)
(Nah-nah-nah, normal)
(Tell me that I'm normal)
(I know I'm normal)
(So tell me I'm normal)
