Anti-Hero

Taylor Swift

[Primeira Parte]

A               E                      
  I have this thing where 
      B          C#m
I get older but just never wiser
A              E            B    C#m
  Midnights become my afternoons
A          E                 
  When my depression works 
      B
The graveyard shift
    C#m                        
All of the people 
A           E                      B   C#m
  I’ve ghosted stand there in the room

[Pré-Refrão]

    A                 E           B
I should not be left to my own devices
      C#m                  A
They come with prices and vices
  E                  B          C#m
I end up in crisis (Tale as old as time)

A        E                      B
  I wake up screaming from dreaming
              C#m                A
One day I’ll watch as you’re leaving
           E                 B
Cause you got tired of my scheming
          C#m
(For the last time)

[Refrão]

      A  E
It’s me,   hi
B            C#m
I’m the problem, it’s me
    A  E       B         C#m
At tea   time, everybody agrees
A               E             B
  I’ll stare directly at the sun
          C#m        
But never in the mirror
A             E
It must be exhausting
        B              C#m
Always rooting for the anti-hero

( A  E  B  C#m )

[Segunda Parte]

A              E    
  Sometimes I feel 
           B         C#m
Like everybody is a sexy baby
A            E              B   C#m
  And I’m a monster on the hill
A             E       
  Too big to hang out
        B           
Slowly lurching towards 
      C#m
Your favorite city
A                      E                     
  Pierced through the heart
           B     C#m
But never killed

A          E                 B              
  Did you hear my covert narcissism 
     C#m                 A
Lightly disguised as altruism
 E                     B         
Like some kind of congressman 
             C#m
(Tale as old as time)

[Pré-Refrão]

A              E                B
  I wake up screaming from dreaming
              C#m                A
One day I’ll watch as you’re leaving
       E                     B
And life lose all of its meaning
          C#m
(For the last time)

[Refrão]

      A  E
It’s me,   hi
B            C#m
I’m the problem, it’s me
    A  E       B         C#m

Always rooting for the anti-hero

( A  E  B  C#m )

[Terceira Parte]

A               E       
  I have this dream 
            B                C#m
My daughter-in-law kills me for the money
A               E                B   C#m
  She thinks I left them in the will
A             E                  B
  The family gathers around and read
        C#m
It and someone screams out
A                 E              B   C#m
  “She’s laughing up at us from hell!”

[Final A  E  B  

I have this thing where I get older, but just never wiser
Midnights become my afternoons
When my depression works the graveyard shift
All of the people I've ghosted stand there in the room

I should not be left to my own devices
They come with prices and vices
I end up in crisis
(Tale as old as time)

I wake up screaming from dreaming
One day I'll watch as you're leaving
'Cause you got tired of my scheming
(For the last time)

It's me, hi, I'm the problem, it's me
At teatime, everybody agrees
I'll stare directly at the Sun, but never in the mirror
It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero

Sometimes I feel like everybody is a sexy baby
And I'm a monster on the hill
Too big to hang out, slowly lurching toward your favorite city
Pierced through the heart, but never killed

Did you hear my covert narcissism
Lightly disguised as altruism
Like some kind of congressman?
(Tale as old as time)

I wake up screaming from dreaming
One day I'll watch as you're leaving
And life will lose all of its meaning
(For the last time)

It's me, hi, I'm the problem, it's me (I'm the problem, it's me)
At teatime, everybody agrees
I'll stare directly at the Sun, but never in the mirror
It must be exhausting, always rooting for the anti-hero

I have this dream my daughter-in-law kills me for the money
She thinks I left them in the will
The family gathers around and reads it and someone screams out
She's laughing up at us from hell

It's me, hi, I'm the problem, it's me
It's me, hi, I'm the problem, it's me
It's me, hi, everybody agrees, everybody agrees

It's me, hi, I'm the problem, it's me (I'm the problem, it's me)
At teatime, everybody agrees (everybody agrees)
I'll stare directly at the Sun, but never in the mirror
It must be exhausting, always rooting for the anti-hero
