Fm                    C#
Head over heels I've fit in before
A#m                   C7
Now I don't want to do it no more
Fm                    C#
Held it all in with blood on my face
A#m                   C7
Built it up, man, so bad you can taste

I don't slag no one, I don't even judge
Don't give me shit ’cause I'm not gonna budge
I just wanna be who I wanna be
Guess that's hard for others to see

Chorus:
G#         D#
I'm not a trendy asshole
  C#
I do what I want,
                D#
Do what I feel like
G#          D#
I'm not a trendy asshole
       C#
Don't give a fuck,
         C7             Fm
If it's good enough for you,
’Cause I'm alive

Smash is the way you feel all alone
Like an outcast, you're out on your own
Smash is the way you deal with your life
Like an outcast, you're smashing your strife

Head over heels, I've fit in before
Now, I don't wanna do it no more
I just wanna be who I wanna be
Guess that's hard for others to see

Chorus

Head over heels, I've fit in before
Now, I don't wanna do it no more
I just wanna be who I wanna be
Guess that's hard for others to see

Chorus

I'm not a trendy asshole
Do what I want, do what I feel like
I'm not a trendy asshole
Don't give a fuck if it's good enough for you
’Cause I am alive, I am alive
I am alive
