Dm             Bb              F
I'm just the elephant in the room
              Gm
What's your best excuse? (Best excuse)
Dm             Bb              F
I'm just the elephant in the room

         Dm
Do you really wanna be the one
       Bb                            F     Gm
That makes this so uncomfortable tonight? Yeah
                Dm
When you could be one
                      Bb                                     F  Gm
To set the record straight, you think it's not the perfect time, uh

       Dm                              Bb
I wish I could be the one to make it easy
             F                                   Gm
But I'll remind you that you're gonna hurt some feelings
         Dm                           Bb
So you slide around the issues and lay low
          F                             Gm
Heaven forbid you got to dirty up the halo

So

Dm              Bb
I'm not gonna let this go
F                         Gm
Don't know what you're waiting for
Dm               Bb      F  Gm
I'm not gonna let you go

So

Dm               Bb            F
I'm just the elephant in the room
             Gm
What's your best excuse? (Best excuse)
Dm               Bb            F
I'm just the elephant in the room
        Gm
Better think this through, yeah
Dm               Bb                  F
You don't wanna talk about your feelings
                 Gm
I'll be in the corner with the reasons
Dm               Bb
I'm just the elephant
F                 Gm
I'm just the elephant in the room

           Dm
I'm gonna be the darkest secret
           Bb                                 F      Gm
That you can't forget and keep back in your mind (my mind)
          Dm
So when people ask what's wrong with you
      Bb                                 F      Gm
You can't explain what's killing you inside (inside)

              Dm                                 Bb
I don't know why you got to cheat on what you stand for
             F                          Gm
You try to look away, but I'm too big to ignore
     Dm                 Bb
I can lay off if you say so
           F                            Gm
A guilty conscious is obnoxious with no pay though

So

Dm             Bb
I'm not gonna let this go
F                          Gm
Don't know what you're waiting for
Dm              Bb       F Gm
I'm not gonna let you go
