[Verse 1]
Db Fm
     I see you,
Fm                            Bbm
  you on the edge of your seat
Ain't you got some place to be?
Db                                      Fm
  Was hoping the suspense would kill you
Tell me, how would you begin?
Bbm
Watching and waiting to sink your teeth in
Db                                      Fm
Come on and give me your expert opinion,  ah,
fuck it
Fm                       Bbm
  I settle down in a dump
Heard a crowd screaming "Jump"
Db                       Fm
  So I came to the window
                                    Bbm
I said, "What the fuck have I done?"
They said, "We just want your blood
Db                                     Fm
  You know we like you better in limbo"

[Pre-Chorus]
Fm                      Bbm
  So come on and take a shot,
                    Db
you just can't get enough
Don't let the fact that you know nothing stop you talking
Fm
now
                            Bbm
'Cause when all is said and done,
                        Db
my name's still on your tongue
But tell me,
                               Fm   Bbm
why you gotta kick me when I'm down?

[Chorus]
                                         Ab    Gm Fm
You better pray I don't get up this time around
And why you tryna put me in the ground?
                     Bbm
Don't you know I'm a seed? I won't stop at the roof
Go ahead, bury me; this is how I grow,
           Ab    Gm Fm
it's how I thrive
                                  Fm   Bbm
So why you gotta kick me when I'm down?

[Bridge]

Yeah, I know it's all in good fun, but
Don't say it's coming from love, no
Db                          Fm
  I see those arms in akimbo
And don't set that phaser to stun 'cause
Bbm
What doesn't kill me, well,
                   Db
it better run like hell
                          Fm
Yeah, you better run like hell
