F                               Dm
I melted every brain cell in my head
                       Gm
Staring at my phone in bed
                           C
Don’t even know what I am feeling
                      F
As I stare up at the ceiling
                          Dm
My mother tells me I look tired
                                       Gm
But what does she know - I’m clearly alright
                           C
Apart from every morning spent
Wishing that I was still sleeping

            A             Dm
And yeah I guess I could happier
     A#                         F
I suppose I could be less of a dick
    A              Dm
And yes Ive been a regular
       A#   Am        A#
At the bar where you drink
Am      A#
Cause I like
Am        G
How you think

Chorus:
A#
Madison Madison
Oh I’ve been thinkin
F
How you been, how you been
I told you
A#
Every single secret and you sat there silent
Dm  A/C#       C       G/B     A#
I needed you then, now I need you again
   F
Madison

God, you wear that shirt so well
If you're not perfect, I can't tell
Can I be your sister or your daughter
Or your houseplant in the corner?
And then I'd be happier
'Cause I'd never have to think for myself
So can I call you, can I see you?

Chorus:
Oh, Madison, Madison
Oh, I've been thinkin' how you been, how you been?
I told you every single secret
and you sat there silent
I needed you then, now I need you again

Chorus:
Oh, Madison, Madison
Oh, I've been thinkin' how you been, how you been?
I told you every single secret and you
sat there silent
I needed you then, now I need you again

And you said I could be happier
In that moment I knew it was true
And this sadness is familiar
I don't know where you're at
Won't you please call me back?

Chorus:
Oh, oh, oh, oh, Madison, Madison
Oh, I've been thinkin' how you been, how you been?
I told you every single secret and you
sat there silent
You sat there silent
Madison, Madison
Do you ever think about me
just pouring my heart out?
Every single secret and you sat there silent
I needed you then, now I need you again, Madison
