(These are the official lyrics from Car Seat Headrest's Bandcamp page save for a
couple of chorus verses that I swapped places around.)

[Verse 1]

A G
If I can fit my dreams
A G
You say the same things over and over
G F
Into an AB AB rhyme scheme
G E7
You say the same things over and over

A G
Love is a way of passing on our genes
A G
Love is because we want to further our genes
G F
God is a scientist, he's just found out about us
G E7
He's published a study but he don't know much about us

[Chorus]

A G Gm7/F# Em
When I die I won't become a ghost
F#m
Because I’ll have nowhere to haunt
A G Gm7/F# Em
Fuck this town and fuck my dirty hands
F#m A
When you're strange if they like you then they gotta be stranger
A
But they're just strangers

[Verse 2]

A G
Society wants me to fuck, well fuck 'em
A G
Car Seat is a genetic stop sign
G F
I sleep lying next to a mirror
G E7
Car Seat is a menace to the public

A G
Love is a way of advancing our species
A G
Love is because we want to keep up our species
G F
God is a director, he's just found out about us
G E7
He's talked to our agents but he don't know much about us

[Chorus]

A G Gm7/F# Em
When I die I won't become a ghost
F#m
Because I’ll have nowhere to haunt
A G Gm7/F# Em
Fuck this town and fuck my dirty hands
F#m A
When you're strange then the critics gotta be stranger
A
But they're just strangers

[Outro]

D A
Car Seat's nervous and the lights are bright
F#m Esus4 E
When I was a kid I fell in love with Michael Stipe
D A
I took lyrics out of context and thought
Esus4 E
"He must be speaking to me"

D A
I won't last too much longer
F#m E D
I'm already starting to run out of places for faces in my head
F#m Esus4 E
They're all starting to look the same

D A
I won't last too much longer
F#m E D
I'm already starting to run out of places for faces in my head
F#m Esus4 E
They're all starting to look the same
