Intro: Am C G
 
Verse:
Am                                                C
   Everybodyʼs so punk on the internet
                                                G
Everyoneʼs unbothered ʼtil theyʼre not
Every jokeʼs just trolling and memes
                                       Am
Sad as it seems, apathy is hot
                                                        C
Everybodyʼs cutthroat in the comments
                                               G
Every single hot take is cold as ice
When you found me, I said I was busy, that was a lie
 
Pre-chorus:
Am                                 C
I have been afflicted by a terminal uniqueness
              G
Iʼve been dying just from trying to seem cool
 
Chorus:
                    Am                        C
But Iʼm not a bad *****, and this isnʼt savage
           G
But Iʼm never gonna let you down
Iʼm never gonna leave you out
Am                      C
So many traitors, smooth operators
             G
But Iʼm never gonna break that vow
                                          Am   C      G
Iʼm never gonna leave you now, now, now
 
Verse:
Am                                                                  C
   You know, the last time I laughed this hard was.
                                                           G
On the trampoline in somebodyʼs backyard
I mustʼve been about eight or nine
                                                              Am
That was the night I fell off and broke my arm
                                                          C
Pretty soon, I learned cautious discretion.
                                                             G
When your first crush crushes something kind
When I said I donʼt believe in marriage, that was a lie
 
Pre-chorus:
Am
Every eldest daughter
             C
Was the first lamb to the slaughter
           G
So we all dressed up as wolves and we looked fire
 
Chorus:
       Am                                C
But Iʼm not a bad *****, and this isnʼt savage
           G
But Iʼm never gonna let you down
Iʼm never gonna leave you out
Am                      C
So many traitors, smooth operators
             G
But Iʼm never gonna break that vow
                                          Am   C      G
Iʼm never gonna leave you now, now, now
 
Bridge:
      D
We lie back
                               Em
A beautiful, beautiful time-lapse
                                     C
Ferris wheels, kisses, and lilacs
                                 G
And things I said were dumb
                                             D                                      Em
ʼCause I thought that Iʼd never find that beautiful, beautiful life that (Ah)
                                   C
Shimmers that innocent light back
                                G
Like when we were young
Am
Every youngest child felt
                 C
They were raised up in the wild
                     G
But now youʼre home
 
Chorus:
           Am
ʼCause Iʼm not a bad *****
         C
And this isnʼt savage
            G
And Iʼm never gonna let you down
Iʼm never gonna leave you out
Am                      C
So many traitors, smooth operators (Ah, ah)
             G
But Iʼm never gonna break that vow (Never gonna break that vow)
                                        Am     C      G
Iʼm never gonna leave you now, now, now
 
Outro:
Never gonna break that vow (Ooh)
                                     Am   C
Never gonna leave you now, now
                                        G
Iʼm never gonna leave you now
