E F# E F# E F# G#m
I am hanging in the bathroom at the biggest party of the fall
E F# E F# E F# G#m
I could stay right here or disappear, and nobody'd even notice at all
E F# E F# E F# E F#
E F# E F# E F# G#m
I'm a creeper in a bathroom 'cause my buddy kinda left me alone
E F# E F# E F# Bmaj7
But I'd rather fake pee than stand awkwardly, or pretend to check a text on my phone
D#m F#
Everything felt fine when I was half of a pair
D#m E
Now through no fault of mine, there's no other half there
F#sus4 F# B F# G#m E B
Now I'm just Michael in the bathroom, Michael in the bathroom at a party
F#sus4 F#
Forget how long it's been
B F# G#m E D#m
I'm just Michael in the bathroom, Michael in the bathroom at a party
F#sus4 F#
No you can't come in!
E F#
I'm waiting it out 'til it's time to leave
G#m C#sus4
And picking at grout as I softly grieve
C#7 F# G G#m C#7 E F#
I'm just Michael who you don't know, Michael flyin' solo, Michael in the bathroom by himself
E F# E F#
E F# E F# E F#
All by himself
E F# E F# E F# G#m
I am hiding, but he's out there, just ignoring all our history
E F# E F# E F# Bmaj7
Memories get erased, and I'll get replaced, with a newer, cooler version of me
D#m F#
And I hear a drunk girl sing along to Whitney through the door, "I wanna dance with somebody"
D#m E F#sus4
And my feelings sink, 'cause it makes me think: now there's no one to make fun of drunk girls with anymore!
F# B F# G#m E F#sus4
Now it's just Michael in the bathroom, Michael in the bathroom at a party
F#
I half regret the beers
B F# G#m E D#m
Michael in the bathroom, Michael in the bathroom at a party
F#sus4 F#
As I choke back the tears
E F#
I'll wait as long as I need, until my face is dry
G#m C#7
Or I'll just blame it on weed, or something in my eye!
F# F#m G G#m C#7
I'm just Michael who you don't know, Michael flyin' solo
E F# E F# E F#
Michael in the bathroom by himself!

E F#
Knock, knock, knock, knock
E F#
They're gonna start to shout soon
E F#
Knock, knock, knock, knock
E F#
Oh hell yeah, I'll be out soon
F G
Knock, knock, knock, knock
F G
It sucks you left me here alone
F G
Knock, knock, knock, knock
F G
Here in this teenage battle zone-
A G
Clang, clang, clang, clang
A G
I feel the pressure blowing up
A G
Bang, bang, bang, bang
A G
My big mistake was showing up
G# A#
Splash, splash, splash, splash
G# A#
I throw some water in my face
G#m C#
And I am in a better place
E
I go to open up the door
F#
But I can't hear knocking
E F#
Anymore
E F# (x3)
D#m
And I can't help but yearn
F#
For a different time
D#m
And then I look in the mirror
And the present is clearer
E F#sus4 F#
And there's no denying, I'm just-
B F# G#m E
F#sus4
At a party
F#
Is there a sadder sight than-
B F#
*hums*
G#m E F#
Michael in the bathroom at a party
D#m F#
This is a heinous night
E F#
I wish I stayed at home in bed watching cable porn
G#m
Or wish I offed myself instead
C#7
Wish I was never born
F# G
I'm just Michael who's a loner
G#m C#7
So he must be a stoner
F# G
Rides a PT Cruiser
G#m C#7
God he's such a loser
F# G
Michael flyin' solo
G#m C#7
Who you think that you know
F# E F#
Michael in the bathroom by himself
E F# E F#
All by himself
E F# E F#
All by himself
E F# E F#
All you know about me is my name
E F#
Awesome party
E F# B
I'm so glad I came
