Hate Me by Blue October
Standard Tuning
{Verse 1}
FI have to block out thoughts of you so I don’t lose my head
They cDmrawl in like a cockroach leaving babies in my bed
Dropping Flittle reels of tape to remind me that I’m alone
Playing Dmmovies in my head that make a porno feel like home
There's a Fburning in my pride, a nervous bleeding in my brain
An ounce of Dmpeace is all I want for you; will you never call again?
And will you Fnever say that you love me just to put it in my face?
And will you Dmnever try to reach me; It is I that wanted space
{Chorus}
Hate me today F
Hate me Dmtomorrow
Hate me for aFll the things I dGidn't do for yDmou
Hate me in wFays
Yeah ways hard to Dmswallow
Hate me so Fyou can finally sGee what's good forF you
{Verse 2}
I’mF sober now for 3 whole months it’s one accomplishment that you helped me with
The one Dmthing that always tore us apart is the one thing I won’t touch again
In my Fsick way I want to thank you for holding my head up late at night
While I was bDmusy waging wars on myself, you were trying to stop the fight
You never dFoubted my warped opinions on things like suicidal hate
You made me Dmcompliment myself when it was way too hard to take
So I’lFl drive so fucking far away that I never cross your mind
And Dmdo whatever it takes in your heart to leave me behind
{Chorus}
Hate me today F
Hate me Dmtomorrow
Hate me for Fall the things I Gdidn't do forDm you
Hate me in Fways
Yeah ways hard to Dmswallow
Hate me so yFou can finally Gsee what's good for Fyou
{Bridge}
And with a saDm7d heart I say bye to you and wGave
Kicking Fshadows on the street for every mDmistake that I had made
And like Dm7a baby boy I never waGs a man
Until I Fsaw your blue eyes cry and I held your fDmace in my hand
And then I fDm7ell down yelling ‘Make it go Gaway!’
Just make a sFmile come back and shine just liDmke it used to be
And then she Dm7whispered ‘How can you do this toG me?’
{Chorus}
Hate me today F
Hate me toDmmorrow
Hate me for aFll the things I Gdidn't do for Dmyou
Hate me in wFays
Yeah ways hard to Dmswallow
Hate me so Fyou can finally Gsee what's good for yFou
DmFor you
FFor you G
FFor you
