Intro 
 Gm7             A7              Dm7 
(Know, I know, I know, I know, I know) 
Gm7  A7       Dm7 
I, I know it, I know it 


verse 1 
Gm7                                          A7                Dm7 
    The most beautiful thoughts are always besides the darkest 
Gm7                                              A7 
    Today, I seriously thought about killing you 
               Dm7 
I contemplated,    premeditated murder 
    Gm7 
And I think about killing myself 
                A7                                Dm7 
And I love myself way more than I love you, so... 

                       Gm7          A7                  Dm7 
Today, I thought about killing you, premeditated murder 
                          Gm7                     A7 
You'd only care enough to kill somebody you love 
                          Dm7 
The most beautiful thoughts are always inside the darkest 
                 Gm7 
(Mhm—mhm—mhm—mhm—mhmm) 
A7                                          Dm7 
   Just say it out loud to see how it feels 
People say, "Don't say this, don't say that" 
                     Gm7                         A7  Dm7 
Just say it out loud,   just to see how it feels 
Weigh all the options, nothing's off the table 

Gm7                                   A7                    Dm7 
    Today I thought about killing you,   premeditated murder 
I think about killing myself 
                                     Gm7 
And I, I love myself way more than I love you 
A7                                                    Dm7 
   The most beautiful thoughts are always besides the darkest 
                            Gm7        A7 
(Mhm—mhm—mhm—mhm—mhm—mhm—mhm—mhm—mhmm) 

                        Dm7 
I think this is the part where I'm supposed to say somethin' good 
                                        Gm7      A7 
To compensate it so it doesn't come off     bad 
                      Dm7 
But sometimes I think really bad things 
                Gm7                A7  Dm7 
Really, really, really bad things 
                                           Gm7  A7  Dm7 
And I love myself way more than I love you 

See, if I was tryin' to relate it to more people 
    Gm7                                       A7 
I'd probably say I'm struggling with loving myself 
                                 Dm7 
Because that seems like a common theme 
But that's not the case here 
                              Gm7 
I love myself way more than I love you 
                  A7 
And I think about killing myself 
                Dm7 
So, best believe, I thought about killing you today 
Premeditated murder 

verse 2 
Gm7                            A7 
    I called up my loved ones,    I called up my cousins 
Dm7 
    I called up the Muslims, said I'm 'bout to go dumb 
Gm7                            A7 
    Get so bright, it's no sun,   get so loud, I hear none 
Dm7 
    Screamed so loud, got no lungs, hurt so bad, I go numb 
Gm7                            A7 
    Time to bring in the drums,   that prrt-pu-pu-pum 
Dm7 
    Set the NewTone on 'em, set the nuke off on 'em 
Gm7                            A7 
    I need Coke with no rum,      I taste coke on her tongue 
Dm7 
    I don't joke with no one, they'll say he die so young 
Gm7                            A7 
    I done had a bad case         of too many bad days 
Dm7 
    Got too many bad traits, used the floor for ashtrays 
Gm7                            A7 
    I don't do shit halfway,      I'ma clear the cache 
Dm7 
    I'ma make my name last, put that on my last name
