A# If I could give this all back F Gm I would be home in the morning I'd wake up in a cold sweat F/A A# Take a flight back to the city I was born in A# And I would wipe myself clean F Gm Of what I knew was unimportant I'd want typical things F/A I'd try to fit back into all my old clothing D# And I would prove myself wrong Gm F That all along, the problem was me With all my bitterness gone Happy, I'd be Chorus: A# I'll move back home forever I'll feed the dogs and I'll put all D# My pieces back together where they belong Gm F And I'll say, "I'm a mess, I'm a mess A# D# Oh God, I'm a mess" A# And I'll take 89 to Boston See my love and I'll help her D# Set up her new apartment And we'll get drunk and she'll say Gm F "Shit, you're a mess, you're a mess A# D# Good God, you're a mess Gm F Oh, you're a mess, you're a mess A# Good God" So I paid off my debts, but I found the world boring So I called my old friends, but they only ever ask me how tour is And there's still weight on my back, I just try to ignore it I guess the stage was my mask I forgot the way I looked before I wore it And I would prove myself wrong That all along, the problem was me With all my bitterness gone Happy, I'll be Chorus: I'll move back home forever, I'll feed the dogs And I'll put all my pieces back together Where they belong, and I'll say "I'm a mess, I'm a mess, oh God, I'm a mess" And I'll take 89 to Boston, see my love And I'll help her set up her new apartment And we'll get drunk, and she'll say "Shit, you're a mess, you're a mess, good God, you're a mess Oh, you're a mess, you're a mess" D# That's not what I had hoped Now I find comfort in the cold Chorus: I'll move back home forever, I'll feed the dogs And I'll put all my pieces back together Where they belong, and I'll say "I'm a mess, I'm a mess, oh God, I'm a mess" And I'll take 89 to Boston, see my love And I'll help her set up her new apartment And we'll get drunk, and she'll say "Shit, you're a mess, you're a mess, good God, you're a mess Oh, you're a mess, you're a mess, good God" You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  A#  D#  F  Gm  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
