"Hate Me"
Blue October
Intro:
G Em C D
G
I have to block out thoughts of you
so I dont lose my head
Em
they crawl in like a cockroach
leaving babies in my bed
C
Dropping little reels of tape
To remind me I'm alone
D
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
And ounce of pieces is all I want for you
Will you never call again
C
And will you never say that you loved me
Just to put it in my face
D
Will you never try to reach me
It is I that wanted space
G
Hate Me today
Em
Hate me tomorrow
C D G
Hate me so you can finally see what's good for you
G
I'm sober now for 3 whole months
It's one accomplishment that you helped me with
Em
One thing that always tore us apart
Is the one that I won't touch again
C
In a sick way I want to thank you
For holding my head up late at night
D
While I was busy waging wars with myself
You were trying to stop the fight
G
You never doubted my warped opinions
On things like suicide or 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
D
And do whatever it takes in your heart
To leave me behind
G
Hate Me today
Em
Hate me tomorrow
C
Hate me for all the things
D Em
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
C D
And with a sad heart I say bye to you and wave
G Em
I'm kicking shadows in the street for every mistake that I make
C D
Like a baby boy I never was a man
G Em
Til I saw your blue eyes cry and I held your face in my hand
C D
And the I found I'm yelling make it go away
G Em
just make it stop and let it shine just like it used to be
C D
And then she whispered "how can you do this to me?"
G
Hate Me today
Em
Hate me tomorrow
C
Hate me for all the things
D Em
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
