Bm A Em G
[Verse 1]
Bm AI chained my ghost up in a basement
Em GSix feet back behind my eyes
Bm ASome nights I think this house is gonna cave in
Em GRejection has me terrified
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm ANow I hang from a wooden frame
EmIt keeps the crows away
GThis is where I'm safe
Bm AMade of straw and a funny face
Em GTurns out being fake can be a saving grace
[Chorus]
Bm DYou can't kill me if I'm already dead
A EmBuried alive by the things that they've said
GI killed myself but no one knows
AYou're not talking to me;
F#You're talking to a scarecrow!
Bm DWho I Am only put me through hell
A EmI'm bulletproof when I'm somebody else
GI killed myself but no one knows
AYou're not talking to me;
F#You're talking to a scarecrow!
[Verse 2]
Bm AI hid my heart up in the attic
Em GStuck pieces deep inside these walls
Bm AFor every time I was ignored or called dramatic
Em GI'm only safe feeling nothing at all
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm ANow I hang from a wooden frame
Em GIt keeps the crows away
BmI'm better off insane
AI cut the skin to make a brand new face
Em'Cause back when I was me
GI lived to be replaced
[Chorus]
Bm DYou can't kill me if I'm already dead
A EmBuried alive by the things that they've said
GI killed myself but no one knows
AYou're not talking to me;
F#You're talking to a scarecrow!
Bm DWho I Am only put me through hell
A EmI'm bulletproof when I'm somebody else
GI killed myself but no one knows
AYou're not talking to me;
F#You're talking to a scarecrow!
[Bridge]
BmSecret suicide
But no one can tell
A'Cause I'm just terrified of being myself
EmThe real me's inside
But no one can tell
G'Cause disappearing hurts less
Than asking for help
[Instrumental Break]
Bm D A Em
G A F#
[Chorus]
Bm DYou can't kill me if I'm already dead
A EmBuried alive by the things that they've said
GI killed myself but no one knows
AYou're not talking to me;
F#You're talking to a scarecrow!
BmWho I Am only put me through hell (put me through hell)
AI'm bulletproof when I'm somebody else (somebody else)
EmI killed myself but no one knows
GYou're not talking to me;
A#You're talking to a scarecrow!
[Outro]
Bm AYou can't kill me if I'm already dead
Em G F#You can't kill me if I'm already... dead
