[Verse 1]
G
I have to block out thoughts of you so I don’t lose my head
Em
They crawl in like a cockroach leaving babies in my bed
C
Dropping little reels of tape to remind me that I’m alone
Am
Playing movies in my head that make a porno feel like home
G
There's a burning in my pride, a nervous bleeding in my brain
Em
An ounce of peace is all I want for you; will you never call again?
C
And will you never say that you love me just to put it in my face?
Am
And will you never try to reach me; It is I that wanted space
[Chorus]
G
Hate me today
Em
Hate me tomorrow
C D Em
Hate me for all the things I didn't do for you
G
Hate me in ways
Em
Yeah ways hard to swallow
C D G
Hate me so you can finally see what's good for you
[Verse 2]
G
I’m sober now for 3 whole months it’s one accomplishment that you helped me with
Em
The one thing that always tore us apart is the one thing I won’t touch again
C
In my sick way I want to thank you for holding my head up late at night
Am
While I was busy waging wars on myself, you were trying to stop the fight
G
You never doubted my warped opinions on things like suicidal hate
Em
You made me compliment myself when it was way too hard to take
C
So I’ll drive so fucking far away that I never cross your mind
Am
And do whatever it takes in your heart to leave me behind
[Chorus]
G
Hate me today
Em
Hate me tomorrow
C D Em
Hate me for all the things I didn't do for you
G
Hate me in ways
Em
Yeah ways hard to swallow
C D G
Hate me so you can finally see what's good for you
[Bridge]
Am7 D
And with a sad heart I say bye to you and wave
G Em
Kicking shadows on the street for every mistake that I had made
Am7 D
And like a baby boy I never was a man
G Em
Until I saw your blue eyes cry and I held your face in my hand
Am7 D
And then I fell down yelling ‘Make it go away!’
G Em
Just make a smile come back and shine just like it used to be
Am7 D
And then she whispered ‘How can you do this to me?’
[Chorus]
G
Hate me today
Em
Hate me tomorrow
C D Em
Hate me for all the things I didn't do for you
G
Hate me in ways
Em
Yeah ways hard to swallow
C D G
Hate me so you can finally see what's good for you
Em
For you
C D
For you
G
For you
