I Hate It Here Chords by Taylor Swift

[Start]

[Verse]
G                                  
Quick quick tell me something awful
                    Dsus4                        D       G  
Like you are a poet trapped inside the body of a finance guy
                 G      
Tell me all your secrets
                Gmaj7
All you'll ever be is
G                      Bm   
My eternal consolation prize
G                                    D       
You see I was a debutante in another life but
                              G      
Now I seem to be scared to go outside
                Gmaj7                                 
If comfort is a construct I don't believe in good luck
                G          
Now that I know what's what


[Chorus]
  D                                                     
I hate it here so I will go to secret gardens in my mind
Bm7           Bm            Gmaj7               
People need a key to get to the only one is mine
  A                                                    
I read about it in a book when I was a precocious child
Gmaj7                      G              
No midsized city hopes and smalltown fears
D                                           Bm7 
I'm there most of the year 'cause I hate it here
Gmaj7 G Gmaj7   A   
■     I hate it here


[Verse]
Gmaj7 Bm7 Bm                     G         
■     My  friends used to play a game where
                D     
We would pick a decade
                                      Gmaj7
We wished we could live in instead of this 
                                 G               Gmaj7  
I'd say the eighteen thirtys but without all the racists
                                        Bm7
And getting married off for the highest bid
Bm                       G                D      
Everyone would look down 'cause it wasn't fun now
                                      Gmaj7
Seems like it was never even fun back then 
               D      Gmaj7
Nostalgia is a mind's trick
                      Gmaj7  
If I'd been there I'd hate it
                       G     
It was freezing in the palace


[Chorus]
  D                                                    
I hate it here so I will go to lunar valleys in my mind
Bm                                                      
When they found a better planet only the gentle survived
  A                           
I dreamed about it in the dark
                              G  
The night I felt like I might die
                                     Gmaj7
No midsized city hopes and smalltown fears
D                                             Bm  
■ I'm there most of the year 'cause I hate it here
          A    Gmaj7
I hate it here ■    


[Verse]
    A                  
I'm lonely but I'm good
    A                          
I'm bitter but I swear I'm fine
     Gmaj7                                    
I'll save all my romanticism for my inner life
             Em7     Bm     
And I'll get lost on purpose
                Gmaj7 G    D        
This place made me    feel worthless
Em7               Bm                                      
Lucid dreams like electricity the current flies through me
Gmaj7                      D       
And in my fantasies I rise above it
Gmaj7   G                          
And way up there I actually love it


[Chorus]
  D                                                     
I hate it here so I will go to secret gardens in my mind
Bm                                   G          
People need a key to get to the only one is mine
  A                                               G    
I read about it in a book when I was a precocious child
            Gmaj7                         
No midsized city hopes and smalltown fears
    D                                             
I'm ■ there most of the year 'cause I hate it here
       Bm G A   
I hate it ■ here


[Outro]
Gmaj7                         G    
Quick quick tell me something awful
               D                                 Bm         
Like you are a poet trapped inside the body of a finance guy
A Gmaj7 G D
