Verse 1:
                Abmaj7
Been staring at you for days
                        G7
But you never seem to look my way
   Cm7                                           Eb     Eb7
My "I love you's" in your alphG#et soup seem to go to waste
                 Abmaj7
Been keeping myself at bay
                   G7
Now everything's going pear-shaped
 
Pre-Chorus:
         Cm7
I guess boys with beating hearts
        Eb  Eb7
Beat a boy buried in the backyard
Abmaj7
Every time I try to make contact
             G7
Feels like a supernatural attack
              Cm7
Misinterpret then you react
              Eb
I guess it's back to the attic
Eb7
I'm so dramatic
Abmaj7
It's so sad
  G7                          Cm7
But the last time that I let someone inside
      Eb           Eb7
I was buried alive
 
Chorus:
Abmaj7
Hi
          G7                               Cm7
I'm your friendly neighborhood poltergeist
  Eb        Eb7
Nobody ever looks at me twice
Abmaj7
I'm used to being see-through
      G7                                      Cm7
But it feels so bad when it happens with you
                        Eb        Eb7
Wish you see me the way I see you
 
Verse 2:
                    Abmaj7
I been spelling my name in your lego bricks
                   G7
I don't know how to be more obvious
         Cm7
You're close enough to almost touch
         Eb             Eb7
But not close enough to hold
             Abmaj7
Been tryna make my move
                    G7
But that dude keeps stealing you
 
Pre-Chorus:
         Cm7
I guess boys with beating hearts
       Eb   Eb7
Beat a boy buried in the backyard
Abmaj7
Every time I try to make contact
             G7
Feels like a supernatural attack
               Cm7
Misinterpret then you react
              Eb
I guess it's back to the attic
Eb7
I'm so dramatic
Abmaj7
It's so sad
       G7                     Cm7
But the last time that I let someone inside
      Eb          Eb7
I was buried alive
 
Chorus:
Abmaj7
Hi
          G7                                Cm7

Cm7                       Eb      Eb7
Wish you see me the way I see you

Outro:
Abmaj7               G7
I don't know why I tried
               Cm7
When this was only ever gonna end
          Eb  Eb7
With my demise
              Abmaj7         G7
I don't wanna die twice
    Cm7                  Eb        Eb7
It wasn't very fun the first time
             Abmaj7         G7
I don't know why I try
 Cm7                              Eb   Eb7
This rejection got me feeling cold as ice
             Abmaj7      G7
I don't wanna die twice
      Cm7                Eb      Eb7
It wasn't very fun the first time
              Abmaj7      G7   Cm7   Eb Eb7
I don't know why I try
              Abmaj7      G7
I don't wanna die twice
     Cm7                 Eb
It wasn't very fun the first time
