Notes
Take note of the prominent octave B's in the verses.
[Verse]
Bm       Gmaj7  Bm/F#        Gmaj7 
Why do I worry, what do they think?
Bm                 Gmaj7      Bm/F#           Em    
What is she saying to them? I can't ignore anything.
       Bm           Gmaj7         Bm/F#            Gmaj7   
You're eating up my world like my every second was haunted.
         Bm                              Gmaj7             Bm/F#         Em     
Were you just like this since you were a girl? 'Cause it's all I've ever wanted.
[Chorus]
C#m           D    G             D             A   
I'm just like you, peel away the layers two by two.
C#m              D   G             D                 A     
You're just like me, piling on the pressure three by three.
Em           D/F# G                D             A   
We're almost done shutting out the voices one by one.
[Verse]
Why do I worry, what do they think?
What is she telling her friends? I can't ignore anything.
I'm planning out my moves like my every second was graded.
I'm obsessed, I get no rest.
