Intro: EC#mG#mG#mEC#m
I wish I found some better sounds no one’s ever heard,
G#m
I wish I had a better voice and sang some better words.
EC#m
I wish I found some chords in an order that is new,
G#m
I wish I didnʼt have to rhyme every time I sang.
EC#m
I was told when I get older all my fears would shrink,
G#m
But now I’m insecure, and I care what people think.
EC#mG#m
My name’s ‘Blurryface’, and I care what you think.
EC#mG#m
My name’s ‘Blurryface’, and I care what you think.
Chorus:
EBG#mD#G#m
Wish we could turn back time to the good old days,
F#BD#
When our mamas sang us to sleep, but now we’re stressed out.
G#mF#BD#G#m
Oh, wish we could turn back time, oh, to the good old days,
F#BD#
When our mamas sang us to sleep, but now we’re stressed out,
EC#mG#mG#m
We’re stressed out.
EC#mG#mG#mF#
Sometimes a certain smell will take me back to when I was young.
C#mB
How come I’m never able to identify where it’s coming from?
G#mF#
I’d make a candle out of it if I ever found it.
C#mB
Try to sell it, never sell out of it, I’d probably only sell one.
G#mF#
It’d be to my brother, ‘cause we have the same nose.
C#mB
Same clothes, homegrown, a stone’s throw from a creek we used to roam.
EC#m
But it would remind us of when nothing really mattered,
G#m
Out of student loans and treehouse homes, we all would take the ladder.
EC#mG#m
Uh, my, my name’s ‘Blurryface’, and I care what you think.
EC#mG#m
My name’s ‘Blurryface’, and I care what you think.

Wish we could turn back time to the good old days,
F#BD#
When our mamas sang us to sleep, but now we’re stressed out.
G#mF#BD#G#m
Oh, wish we could turn back time, oh, to the good old days,
F#BD#
When our mamas sang us to sleep, but now we’re stressed out.
G#mF#
We used to play pretend, give each other different names,
BD#
We would build a rocket ship and then we’d fly it far away.
G#mF#
Used to dream of outer space but now they’re laughing out their face,
BD#
Saying, “Wake up, you need to make money.” Yo!
G#mF#
We used to play pretend, give each other different names,
BD#
We would build a rocket ship and then we’d fly it far away.
G#mF#
Used to dream of outer space but now they’re laughing out their face,
BD#
Saying, “Wake up, you need to make money.” Yo!

EC#m
We used to play pretend, used to play pretend money,
G#m
We used to play pretend, wake up, you need the money.
EC#m
We used to play pretend, used to play pretend money,
G#m
We used to play pretend, wake up, you need the money.
EC#m
We used to play pretend, give each other different names,
G#m
We would build a rocket ship and then we’d fly it far away.
EC#m
Used to dream of outer space but now they’re laughing out their face,
