E
Used to be level with all my friends
Still wear the same shoes I did back then
A
I don't think they've ever been untied
I can't regret the things I don't try
E
I'd switch it up but I don't like change
Only content if things stay the same
A
Don't care to watch the story unfold
Hate feeling like I'm not in control

B                           C#m
I've been sleeping with the light on
   E                     Amaj7
I tend to freak myself out
                       F#m/C#
Will you come a little closer now
     B
And tell me I'm a

Chorus:
   A
Scrawny motherfucker with a cool hairstyle
Scrawny motherfucker with a cool hairstyle
   E
Scrawny motherfucker with a cool hairstyle
I'm a scrawny motherfucker with a cool hairstyle

I say the wrong shit at the right times
If I'm offending them, I don't mind
Maybe they all should listen to me
It isn't all about what you see
Question though, how do I look to you?
Am I so thin that you can see through?

I've been sleeping with the light off
I wanted to remember
Will you come a little closer now
And see that I'm a

Chorus

B
I'll be one of those people you remember
A
They'll be looking at us when we're together
G#m                                  B
I'll be a mannequin you can dismember

Chorus:
You don't like my clothes, but you still like my smile
Scrawny motherfucker with a cool hairstyle
Take me home to mom, but it'll take awhile
Scrawny motherfucker with a cool hairstyle
They might think they're cooler than me by a mile
Scrawny motherfucker with a cool hairstyle
I can still have wisdom and look like a child
Scrawny motherfucker with a cool hairstyle
