[Chorus]
C#m B A
I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed
C#m B A
Get along with the voices inside of my head
C#m B A
You're tryin' to save me stop holding your breath
C#m B A
And you think I'm crazy yeah you think I'm crazy
[Verse]
C#m
I wanted the fame but not the cover of Newsweek
A
Oh well guess beggars can't be choosey
C#m
Wanted to receive attention for my music
A
Wanted to be left alone in public excuse me
C#m
For wantin' my cake and eat it too and wantin' it both ways
A
Fame made me a balloon 'cause my ego inflated
C#m
When I blew see but it was confusing
A
'cause all I wanted to do's be the Bruce Lee of loose leaf
C#m B A
Abused ink used it as a tool when I blew steam
A
Hit the lottery oohwee
C#m B
But with what I gave up to get it was bittersweet
A
It was like winnin' a used mink
C#m B
Ironic 'cause I think I'm gettin' so huge I need a shrink
A
I'm beginnin' to lose sleep one sheep two sheep
C#m
Going coocoo and kooky as Kool Keith
B A
But I'm actually weirder than you think 'cause I'm
[Chorus]
C#m B A
I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed
C#m B A
Get along with the voices inside of my head ■
C#m B A
You're tryin' to save me stop holdin' your breath
C#m B A
And you think I'm crazy yeah you think I'm crazy
A
Well that's nothin'

C#m
Now I ain't much of a poet
[Verse]
A
But I know somebody once told me to seize the moment
A
And don't squander it
C#m
'cause you never know when it all could be over tomorrow
C#m
So I keep conjurin'
A
Sometimes I wonder where these thoughts spawn from
C#m
Yeah ponderin'll do you wonders
A
No wonder you're losing your mind the way it wanders
C#m A
Yodelodelayheehoo I think it went wanderin' off down yonder
A
And stumbled onto Jeff VanVonderen
C#m
'cause I need an interventionist
A
To intervene between me and this monster
C#m B
And save me from myself and all this conflict
A
'cause the very thing that I love's killing me
C#m
And I can't conquer it
B A
My OCD is conkin' me in the head keep knockin'
A
Nobody's home I'm sleepwalkin'
B
I'm just relayin' what the voice in my head's sayin'
A C#m
Don't shoot the messenger I'm just friends with the
[Chorus]

I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed

Call ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ me crazy but I have this vision
[Verse]
A
One day that I'll walk amongst you a regular civilian
C#m
But until then drums get killed and
A
I'm comin' straight at MC's blood gets spilled and
C#m
I'll take it back to the days that I'd get on a Dre track
A
Give every kid who got played that pumpedup feelin'
C#m
And shit to say back to the kids who played him
A
I ain't here to save the fuckin' children
C#m B
But if one kid out of a hundred million
A
Who are going through a struggle feels it and relates that's great
C#m B
It's payback Russell Wilson
A
Falling way back in the draft
C#m
Turn nothin' into somethin' still can
B A
Make that straw into gold chump I will spin
A
Rumpelstiltskin in a haystack
C#m B A
Maybe I need a straight jacket face facts
A7 A
I am nuts for real but I'm okay with that
A
It's nothin' I'm still friends with the
[Chorus]
