Overthinking

          Am
I'm on an overcrowded train
Fighting an overcrowded brain
G             F
And all these bags under my eyes
Hold up my compromise
    Em
And maybe I should bail on everything, anything
Did you not learn anything in school?
F
Could have played by the rules
G
  Could be happy in a different way
Am
  Struggling with the London rent
                                      G
They said it would be hard now I know what they meant
       F
I lose sleep, head stuck in the cereal bowl
But I’m here for the music, I know
    Em
Distracted!
Can I say what I mean, can I mean what I say
F                              G
  Why can’t I figure out how I feel when I wake up everyday

  Dm
I face everything with the same old logic
G                                  Em
Overanalysing everything is tragic
    Dm
And maybe some things they will never make sense
     G
So I tackle it all
But I'm not making a dent, no

F
  And I think my brain is breaking
C/G             G                         F
  And it’s just myself I’ve been blaming
It’s frustrating
C/G               G
I just wanna know why
F
  And I know no good will come of it
C/G             G                           F Csus4
  I wish that I could just be done with it
But I’m sinking
C/G               G                     F Csus4
I just wanna know why I’m overthinking
            C/G
No, no, and I just wanna know
G                      F Csus4
I just wanna know why
           C/G               G
Oh, oh and I just wanna know why

       Am
I'm an outcast, to be left behind
                            G
I'm an extrovert with an anxious mind
          F
There's a danger
That I might just pour my heart out to a total stranger
     Em
In a bar
And they're not gonna wanna hear
No, they're just there to sip their beer
    F
Not hear about problems to solve
     G
And “God this girl's so self involved”
  Am7
I play it out my head
I'm trying to make good choices
  G
I hear voices
F
  They can't pick one side
Help! I look so stupid
                     Em
Sitting there tongue tied
Meltdown! All I can hear
Is code red, code red
F                                 G
  Got a problem in the control centre
In my own head

Dm
Facing the world with the same old logic
G                                  Em
Overanalysing everything is tragic
    Dm
And maybe some things they will never make sense
     G
So I tackle it all
But I'm not making a dent, no

F
  And I think my brain is breaking
C/G             G                         F
  And it’s just myself I’ve been blaming
It’s frustrating
C/G               G
I just wanna know why
F
  And I know no good will come of it
C/G             G                           F Csus4
  I wish that I could just be done with it
But I’m sinking
C/G               G                     F Csus4
I just wanna know why I’m overthinking
            C/G
No, no, and I just wanna know
G                      F Csus4
I just wanna know why
           C/G               G
No, no and I just wanna know why
