Verse 1 
        G      D                            C (x2)     
I feel stupid, but I know it won't last for long. 
                 G            D                         C (x2)
And I've been guessing and I could have been guessing wrong. 
 Em                D       G                     C              
You don't know me now, I kinda thought that you should somehow. 
            G(½) G/F#(½) Em (½) D(½)       C (x3 then hold 1 measure)
Does that whole mad      season got you down? 
 
Verse 2 
        G      D                                C (x2)    
I feel stupid, but it's something that comes and goes. 
                 G            D                         C (x2)    
And I've been changing, I think it's funny how no one knows. 
Em                D       G                     C              
We don't talk about the little things that we do without 
            G(½) G/F#(½) Em (½)  D(½)       C (x2)
When that whole mad      season comes around. 
 
Pre Chorus 
     Em (x2)                                           Am (x2)     
So, why ya gotta stand there looking like the answer now?  
Em (x2)                Am         C (hold)
It seems to me you'll come around. 
 
Chorus
            G            C             D (x2)
I need you now, do you think you can cope? 
                G           C            D (x2)
You figured me out that I'm lost and I'm hopeless. 
                   Am (x2)                   C (x2)
I'm bleeding and broken, though I've never spoken
          G    D   C (x2)
I come undone 
                 G    D   C (x2)
in this mad season. 
 
Verse 3 
        G      D                            C (x2)
I feel stupid, but I think I've been catching on. 
        G       D               C (x2)
I feel ugly, but I know I still turn you on. 
Em                D    G                  C              
You grown colder now, torn apart, angry, turned around. 
            G(½) G/F#(½) Em (½)  D(½)       C (x2)
Will that whole mad      season knock you down?
 
Pre Chorus  
    Em (x2)                                           Am (x2) 
So are you gonna stand there, are you gonna help me out? 
 
Em (x2)        Am          C (hold)
We need to be together now. 
 
Chorus
 
Bridge
              C              G           D (x2)         
And now I'm crying, isn't that what you want? 
           C               G           D          Em 
And I'm trying to live my life on my own, but I won't know. 
     C            G          D (x2)   
At times I do believe I am strong, 
                   C (hold x4)       (x2)         
So someone tell me why, why, why, do I, I, I, feel 
G  D C (x2)    
stupid.  
               G  D C (x2)               
And I come undone,         well I come undone.

You figured me out that I'm lost and I'm hopeless. 
                   Am (x2)                   C (x2)
I'm bleeding and broken, though I've never spoken, well
            G            C             D (x2)
I need you now, do you think you can cope? 
                G           C            D (x2)
You figured me out I'm a child and I’m hopeless.

I'm bleeding and broken, though I've never
