Well if you wanted honesty, that's all you had to say
I never want to let you down or have you go, it's better off this way
For all the dirty looks
For photographs your boyfriend took
Remember when you broke your foot from jumping out the second floor?
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
You wear me out
What will it take to show you that it's not the life it seems? (I'm not okay)
I told you time and time again you sing the words but don't know what it means
To be a joke and look
Another line without a hook
I held you close as we both shook for the last time
Take a good hard look
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
You wear me out
Forget about the dirty looks
The photographs your boyfriend took
You said you read me like a book, but the pages all are torn and frayed
I'm okay
I'm okay
I'm okay, now
(I'm okay, now)
But you really need to listen to me
Because I'm telling you the truth
I mean this
I'm okay (trust me)
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
Well, I'm not okay
I'm not o-fucking-kay
I'm not okay
I'm not okay (okay)

[Verse] is same as Intro pt 2 but palm muted
After the 2nd chorus there is a solo, which I haven't been able to tab yet. Sorry!
 
Then after the solo there is a piano interlude where he whispers, "I'm ok". When piano finishes play.

Well if you wanted honesty, that's all you had to say
I never want to let you down or have you go, it's better off this way
For all the dirty looks
For photographs your boyfriend took
Remember when you broke your foot from jumping out the second floor?
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
You wear me out
What will it take to show you that it's not the life it seems? (I'm not okay)
I told you time and time again you sing the words but don't know what it means
To be a joke and look
Another line without a hook
I held you close as we both shook for the last time
Take a good hard look
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
You wear me out
Forget about the dirty looks
The photographs your boyfriend took
You said you read me like a book, but the pages all are torn and frayed
I'm okay
I'm okay
I'm okay, now
(I'm okay, now)
But you really need to listen to me
Because I'm telling you the truth
I mean this
I'm okay (trust me)
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
Well, I'm not okay
I'm not o-fucking-kay
I'm not okay
I'm not okay (okay)

Forget about the dirty looks
The photographs your boyfriend took
You said you read me like a book, but the pages all are torn and frayed
 
B
I'm okay
I'm okay!
I'm okay, now
(I'm okay, now)
 
A
But you really need to listen to me
Because I'm telling you the truth
I mean this, I'm okay!
(Trust Me)
 
 
[Chorus]
 
D
I'm not okay
         Bm
I'm not okay
Well, I'm not okay
I'm not o-fucking-kay
         Em
I'm not okay
         A
I'm not okay
(Okay)

version 7





Tuning: E A D G B E

So I’d recommend capo on second but it’s up to you
 
 
[Verse 1]
C
Well, if you wanted honesty
 
That's all you had to say
 Am
I never want to let you down
 
Or have you go, it's better off this way
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 Dm
For all the dirty looks
 
The photographs your boyfriend took
G
Remember when you broke your foot
 
From jumping out the second floor?
 
 
[Chorus]
 C              Am
I'm not okay, I'm not okay
Dm            G
I'm not okay, you wear me out
 
 
[Verse 2]
 C
What will it take to show you
 
That it's not the life it seems? (I'm not okay)
Am
I've told you time and time again
 
You sing the words but don't know what it means (I'm not okay)
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 Dm
To be a joke and look
 
Another line without a hook
G
I held you close as we both shook
 
For the last time, take a good hard look
 
 
[Chorus]
C             Am
I'm not okay, I'm not okay
Dm           G
I'm not okay, you wear me out
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm
Forget about the dirty looks
 
The photographs your boyfriend took
G
You said you read me like a book
 
But the pages all are torn and frayed
 
 
[Bridge]
Dm
I'm okay, I'm okay, I'm okay now (I'm okay, now)
 
But you really need to listen to me
 G
Because I'm telling you the truth
                         N.C.
I mean this, I'm okay! Trust me
 
 
[Chorus]
C               Am
I'm not okay, I'm not okay, well, I'm not okay, I'm not o-fucking-kay
 Dm           G
I'm not okay, I'm not okay...
