[Verse 1]
BmQuick, quick Tell me something awful like you are a Dpoet Trapped inside the body of a financeG guy
Tell me all your secrets All you’ll ever be is
My eternal consolation prizeBm You see I was a debutant in anotherD life, but Now I seem to be scared to go outGside
If comfort is a construct, I don’t believe in good luck Now that I know what’s what [Chorus]
I Dhate it here so I will go to secret gardens in my mind BmPeople need a key to get to, the only one is mine I Aread about it in a book when I was a precocious Gchild
No mid-sized city hopes and small-town fears
DI’m there most of the year ’cause I hate it heBmre I hate it here A G
[Verse 2]
BmMy friends used to play a game where We would pick a Ddecade We wished we could live in instead of Gthis
I’d say the 1830s but without all the racists
And getting married off for the highest biBmd Everyone would look down ’cause it wasn’t Dfun now Seems like it was never even fun back Gthen
Nostalgia is a mind’s trick If I’d been there, I’d hate it It was freezing in the palace [Chorus]
I Dhate it here so I will go to Lunar valleys in my mind BmWhen they found a better planet Only the gentle survived I Adreamed about it in the dark The night I felt like I might Gdie
No mid-sized city hopes and small-town fears
DI’m there most of the year ’cause I hate it heBmre I hate it here A G
[Bridge]
I’m Alonely, but I’m good I’m bitter, but I swear I’m fine I’ll Gsave all my romanticism for my inner life and I’ll get Emlost on Bmpurpose This place made Gme feel Dworthless EmLucid dreams like electriciBmty, the current flies through me and Gin my fantasies I rise aDbove it And Gway up

N.C.

there, I actually love it
[Chorus]
I Dhate it here so I will go to secret gardens in my mind BmPeople need a key to get to, the only one is mine I Aread about it in a book when I was a precocious Gchild
No mid-sized city hopes and small-town fears
DI’m there most of the year ’cause I hate it heBmre I hate it here A G
[Outro] Quick, quick, tell me something awful
Like you are a Dpoet Trapped inside the body of a finanBmce guy A G D
