Verse 1 
        G      D                            C (x2)     
I feel stupid, but I know it won't last for long. 
                 G            D                         C (x2)
And I've been guessing and I could have been guessing wrong. 
 Em                D       G                     C              
You don't know me now, I kinda thought that you should somehow.

Does that whole mad      season got you down?

When that whole mad      season comes around.

You figured me out that I'm lost and I'm hopeless. 
                   Am (x2)                   C (x2)
I'm bleeding and broken, though I've never spoken
          G    D   C (x2)
I come undone 
                 G    D   C (x2)
in this mad season.

I feel stupid, but I think I've been catching on.

You grown colder now, torn apart, angry, turned around.

Will that whole mad      season knock you down?

And I'm trying to live my life on my own, but I won't know. 
     C            G          D (x2)   
At times I do believe I am strong, 
                   C (hold x4)       (x2)         
So someone tell me why, why, why, do I, I, I, feel
