Im The Boogeyman

      D                                                Fdim
Why do you keep telling your parents to check under your bed?
                                         F#m
Don't you know I only wanna be your friend?
      E
Mmm-mmm
    D
So what, I got a bad rap
                      Fdim
Don't pretend that nobody's ever talked behind your back
      E
Mmm-mmm


[Pre-Chorus]
     D
I'm under every kid's bed
                 Fdim
I've heard every mean thing they've ever said
F#m
About you

They talk about me too
E
Let me be there for you


[Chorus]
D
Sorry, did I make you scream?
Fdim
I'm the boogeyman man
                                F#m
I can feel your heartbeat racing

Blood pressure starts rising
        E
You're scared of me, that's not surprising
D
You always buying these night lights
E
Ruining the plans that I had for tonight
       F#m
I just wanna stop by for a while
E
Give me a chance and I'll make you smile


[Post-Chorus]
D     Fdim
Haha, hahaha
F#m                                    E
Give me a chance and I'll make you smile


[Verse 2]
  D
I know it's kind of scary whenever your body won't move
    Fdim
But that's the only time I can talk to you
F#m
Sleep paralysis is the only thing I can do
E
To get through to you
       D
You're crying in your pillow

I know what you're going through
              Fdim                                  F#m
Wish I could comfort you but there's nothing I can do
                E
Except watch you


[Pre-Chorus]
     D
I'm under every kid's bed
                  Fdim
I've heard every mean thing they've ever said
F#m
About you

They talk about me too
E
Let me be there for you


[Chorus]
D
Sorry, did I make you scream?
Fdim
I'm the boogeyman man

I can feel your heartbeat racing
F#m
Blood pressure starts rising
        E
You're scared of me, that's not surprising
D
You always buying these night lights
Fdim
Ruining the plans that I had for tonight
       F#m                      E
I just wanna stop by for a while
                                        D
Give me a chance and I'll make you smile


[Post-Chorus]
E                                      F#m
Give me a chance and I'll make you smile
E
Give me a chance and I'll make you smile


[Bridge]

It's always
D
Go away, go away
        Fdim
I don't want you to stay
F#m
Go away, go away
      E
I'm rejected every day

It's always
D
Go away, go away
        Fdim
I don't want you to stay
F#m
Go away, go away
        E
I never liked you anyways


[Outro]
D
I've given up this time
        Fdim                                                         F#m
If you want me to be mean, I'll be the meanest thing you've ever seen
    E
The baddest guy there's ever been
D                                     Fdim
After all, that's what you think of me
F#m         E
Oh-oh-oh-oh
            D                          Fdim
I'll be the baddest guy you've ever seen
                 F#m  Fdim
I'll make you scream
              D                Fdim
I'll make you run back to mommy
                                     E
I'll have you running right back to mommy
