[Verse 1]
 
F#m A Bm           A
Understand once he was a family man 
                  G                            Bm
so surely I would never, ever go through it first hand 
F#m A Bm         A
Emulate all the shit my mother hated 
                 G                      Bm
I can't help but demostrate my Freudian fate 
 F#m A Bm    A
My alibi for taking your guy 
      G                         Bm
history repeats itself, it fails to die 
  F#m A Bm          A
and animal agression is my downfall
                   G                    Bm
I don't care 'bout what you got I want it all
 
[Chorus]
 
        Bm                      A
It's bricked up in my head, it's shoved under my bed
        Bm                    A
and I question myself again: what is it 'bout men? 
Bm                      A
My destructive side has grown a mile wide 
        Bm                      A
and I question myself again: what is it 'bout men? 
 
Bm
 
[Verse 2]
 
        F#m A Bm            A
I'm nurturing, I just wanna do my thing 
         G                                      Bm
and I'll take the wrong man as naturally as I sing 
         F#m A Bm            A
and I'll save my tears for uncovering my fears 
         G                              Bm
for behavioural patters that stick over the years 
 
Chorus x2
 
        Bm                      A
It's bricked up in my head, it's shoved under my bed
        Bm                    A
and I question myself again: what is it 'bout men? 
Bm                      A
My destructive side has grown a mile wide 
        Bm                      A
and I question myself again: what is it 'bout men? 
 
Bm
 
[Outro]
 
F#m A Bm A G Bm x3 (Fade Out)

I'd play it by playing only the bass note from F#m and A, strumming only Bm in the first beat. Sounds more collected. But that's just my opinion :)
