Lower Your Expectations
Bo Burnham
Key : E
Capo
[Intro]
---------------------
E | C#m | A | B | E | C#m 
A | B   
E                C#m
 We all want love
A                       B                             E     C#m
 How many single ladies out there, looking for love tonight?
A                       B
 Yeah, woo that sadness out
E C#m
     There's more where that came from
A B E                        C#m
     Ladies, I know what you want
A    B
 Want
Want

[Verse 1]
---------------------
E
 You want a guy that's sweet, a guy that's tough
C#m
   A feminist who likes to pay for stuff
A
 The kind of guy that gets along with your friends
        B
Without being attracted to any of them
E                                  C#m
 A good boy, a bad boy; a good bad boy;
A half good, half bad, half boy
A
 Loves your brothers, sensitive but not weak and
B
Is a great lover, calls your mother on the weekend

[Pre-Chorus (1)]
---------------------
C#m              A                   E          B            C#m A
   Now you might think that this guy only exists in your mind
           E B
Guess what:   You're right!

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
E           C#m     A B                 E          C#m
 If you want   love,  lower your expectations a few
               A                       B
Because Prince Charming would never settle for you
  E        C#m     A     B                  E
If you want   love, just pick a guy and love him
    C#m                          A               B
And if he's got a thing for feet, say: "Fuck it, sweep me off 'em"

[Interlude]
---------------------
E   C#m              A       B E                  C#m                        A   
 Now   the good thing is that   at least men have very realistic expectations for
         B
 women... He said, sarcastically setting up a second verse in a comedy song

[Verse 2]
---------------------
E
 You want a girl that's nice, a girl that's not
C#m
   Obsessed with her looks, but is insanely hot
A
 The kind of girl that you can show to your folks
          B
Loves the movies that you like and always laughs at your jokes
E                                      C#m
 A real girl, a hot girl; a really hot girl;
A brand new, really hot, real doll
A
 Wants to impress you, doesn't care if you notice
    B
And only ever uses you to tickle her throat with

[Pre-Chorus (2)]
---------------------
C#m              A                    E          B            C#m A
   Now you might think that this girl only exists in your mind
               E             B
But she's real, but last week she died

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
E           C#m     A B                 E          C#m
 If you want   love,  lower your expectations a lot
                         A                B
You might think your dick is a gift, I promise it's not
  E        C#m     A     B                   E
If you want   love, just pick a girl and love her
                   C#m              A               B
Then whip out your dick and let the girl you love decline the offer

[Bridge]
---------------------
A                   E                          B
 I don't want a neat freak, I don't want a slob
Somebody with bedhead and a deadend job
A               E              B     C#m B
 'Cause I won't settle for less than perfect
A                     E
 We want perfect children, a perfect life
B
 A perfect husband or a perfect wife
A    E                 B           C#m   B
 But deep down we know, we don't deserve it
But

[Outro]
---------------------
  E           C#m     A B                       E               C#m
We all deserve   love,  even on the days when we aren't our best
                   A                 B
'Cause we all suck, but love can make us suck less
  E           C#m A               B                   E        G#7
We all deserve     love, it's the very best part of being alive
    A               B                  E
And I would know, I just turned twenty five
