[ Self Esteem von Offspring ]


SELF ESTEEM     (OFFSPRING) 


A     F       C     G 
La la lalala. La la lalala. 
A     F       C     G         F  G   A 
La la lalala. La la lalala.

A           F            C            G 
I wrote her off for the tenth time today, 
A             F       C              G  
and practiced all the things I would say. 
A            F       C       G 
But she came over, I lost my nerve. 
A          F        C            G 
I took her back and made her dessert.

Now I know I'm being used. 
That's ok man, cause I like the abuse. 
I know she's playing with me. 
That's okay cause I got no self esteem.

Oh yeah. Oh yeah.

We make plans to go out at night. 
I wait till two then I turn out the light. 
All this rejection's got me so low, 
if she keeps it up, I just might tell her so.

Oh yeah, Oh yeah.

Refrain:

D          Bb      F           G          D 
When she's saying, oh that she wants only me, 
D      Bb             F              G 
then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends. 
D          Bb      F           G         D 
When she's saying, oh that I'm like a disease, 
D      Bb              F          G 
then I wonder how much more I can spend.

Well I guess I should stick up for myself,

but I really think it's better this way. 
D            Bb 
The more you suffer,
C                            F             G A F C G 
the more it shows you really care. Right?

Mow I'll relate this little bit, 
that happens more than I like to admit. 
Late at night she knocks on my door, 
drunk again and looking to score.

Now I know I should say no. But 
that's kind of hard when she's ready to go. 
I may be dumb but I'm not a dweeb, I
'm just a sucker with no self esteem.

Oh yeah. Oh yeah.
