Tom: Am
Am Dm G C F Bb E
[Chorus]
Am Dm G
I'd tell you that I, got so many matters on my mind
C
Got so many matters
F Bb
And I'm trying not to let them weigh me down
E
Trying not to, but they weigh me down
[Verse 1]
Yeah
Am Dm
Tough skin covering my bones
G C
Veins and muscle holds it all together
F
And I try to get stronger and better
Bb E
Push-ups and pull-ups and head up high
E
Like my father used to tell me
Am Dm
But tough skin shivers in the cold
G C
Veins and muscle lose control
F
And you think I am made out of marble
Bb
But I am barely a mortal
E
And if you put down your chisel and listen
[Pre-Chorus]
F
I'd tell you that I'm so tired of these expectations
E
I'm so tirеd and I'm so afraid
F E Bb
I'm not, any of the things you make me out to bе
[Chorus]
Am Dm G
I'd tell you that I, got so many matters on my mind
C
Got so many matters
F Bb
And I'm trying not to let them weigh me down
E
Trying not to but they weigh me down
Am Dm G
I, got so many matters on my head
C
Don't say it doesn't matter
F Bb
'Cause I'm trying not to let them weigh me down
E
Trying not to but they weigh me down
[Verse 2]
Am Dm
Strong face covering my fear
G C
Strong coat but I'm human here
F
And I am balancing all this angst with ambition
Bb
I am my own opposition
E
If I could get you to listen
[Pre-Chorus]
F
I'd tell you that I'm so tired of these expectations
E
I'm so tirеd and I'm so afraid
F E Bb
I'm not, any of the things you make me out to bе
[Chorus]
Am Dm G
I'd tell you that I, got so many matters on my mind
C
Got so many matters
F Bb
And I'm trying not to let them weigh me down
E
Trying not to but they weigh me down
Am Dm G
I, got so many matters on my head
C
Don't say it doesn't matter
F Bb
'Cause I'm trying not to let them weigh me down
E
Trying not to but they weigh me down
[Bridge]
Am Dm G C F Bb
Oh, oh, oh
E
I'm trying not to but they weigh me down (They weigh me down)
Am Dm
I'm so tired
G C
I'm so tired
F Bb F
I'll tell you that I'm not, any of the things you make me out to be
[Chorus]
Am Dm G
I'd tell you that I, got so many matters on my mind
C
Got so many matters
F Bb
And I'm trying not to let them weigh me down
E
Trying not to but they weigh me down
Am Dm G
I, got so many matters on my head
C
Don't say it doesn't matter
F Bb
'Cause I'm trying not to let them weigh me down
E
Trying not to but they weigh me down
[Outro]
Am Dm G C F Bb
Oh, oh, oh
E
I'm trying not to but they weigh me down
