                D#       F
Wasn't raised religious
                  Gm
But I wish that I was
                    D#      F
Having nothing to believe in
                     Gm
Has been killing my buzz

        D#          F
Yeah, I cut my hair, closed the blinds
Gm                    A#
Play Hallelujah like two dozen times
    D#         F
And yesterday, I tried to pray
    Gm                     A#
But I didn't know what to say

Chorus:
                D#                  F
I'm too sad to cry, too high to get up
            A#                           Gm
Don't even try 'cause I'm scared to fuck up
               D#                     F
Don't like to talk, I just lay in my bed
            A#                     Gm
Don't even try to go out with my friends
           D#                      F
Lied to my doctor, she knew I was fakin'
             A#/D                          D#
Gave me some pills, but I'm too scared to take 'em
             D#  F                   D#
I try and I try, but I'm too sad to cry

Can’t tell my mama
It makes her worry
I’m not suicidal
But sometimes, the lines get all blurry

Yeah, I cut my hair, closed the blinds
Played "Hallelujah" like two dozen times
And yesterday, I tried to pray
But I didn't know what to say

Chorus:
I’m too sad to cry, too high to get up
Don't even try 'cause I'm scared to fuck up
Don’t like to talk, I just lay in my bed
Don't even try to go out with my friends
I lied to my doctor, she knew I was fakin'
Gave me some pills, but I'm too scared to take 'em
I try and I try, but I'm too sad to cry

I'm too sad to cry, too high to get up
Don't even try 'cause I'm scared to fuck up
Don't like to talk, I just stay in my bed
Don't even try to go out with my friends
Lied to my doctor, she knew I was fakin'
Gave me some pills, but I'm too scared to take 'em
I try and I try, but I'm too sad to cry
