C#G#7C#G#7C#
[Verse 1]
C#G#7C#
Yeah my wife she sometimes rages
C#G#7C#
That I'm not so organised
C#G#7C#
She knows that it has been ages
C#G#7C#
Since I bought that bag of fries
F#C#
Just look at the pile of dishes
G#7C#
The old tissues on that stool
F#C#
You may think that I am hopeless
G#7C#
But my brain is pretty cool
[Chorus]
F#C#G#7C#
ADHD, ADHD
C#F#G#C#C#7
I may be a slob, but I'm great at my job, that is just me
F#G#
They call it a deficiency
A#mD#7
But, you know what? I do not agree!
F#G#C#G#7C#
This could be our real superpower, ADHD
[Verse 2]
C#G#7C#
Just think of the human brain as...
C#G#7C#
A gigantic mixing board
C#G#7C#
Normal brains can use these dimmers
C#G#7C#
To ease in and out of chores
F#C#
A little of this and that and...
G#7C#
Like that all the chores are gone
F#C#
My brain doesn't work like that, man
G#7C#
My brain just goes OFF and ON
[Chorus]
F#C#G#7C#
ADHD, ADHD
C#F#G#C#C#7
Destigmatise it, no one should hide it, take it from me
C#F#G#
It's not a deficiency that's wrong
A#mD#7
ADHD helped me write this song
F#G#
We're good creators, stop being haters
F#C#G#7C#
ADHD, ADHD
F#
Yeah, I'm awful with money
G#C#C#7
But hey I'm funny, seriously
F#G#
I might forget some things today
A#mD#7
But please believe me now when I say
F#G#C#C#7
You can get through it, here's how you do it, ADHD
[Bridge]
G#7
My phone's in the fridge
C#
My desk is a mess
G#7
Hey what's in that tree?
C#
This test gives me stress
F#
Forget what to get
C#
Don't know where to go
G#C#
But here's how I take control
G#7C#
I get exercise, I go on a walk
G#7C#
I make it a point to let people talk
F#C#
My wife makes a list, it's here on my wrist
G#C#
And now I am good to go
[Chorus]
F#C#G#7C#
ADHD, ADHD
F#G#C#C#7
Destigmatise it, don't even hide it, take it from me
F#G#
It's just the way my brain was made
A#mD#7
But the good parts I never would trade
F#G#C#
I'm not complainin', I'm entertainin', ADHD
F#C#G#7C#
ADHD, ADHD
F#G#C#C#7
The lawn it needs mowing, but I'll keep going, they changed the key
F#G#
I need to finish what I sing
C#D#7
Because of my executive functioning
F#G#C#
I'll do the prunin', but first I'm croonin', ADHD
F#G#C#
We're different thinkers, we like to tinker, ADHD
F#G#
It can be harder, but we are smarter
A#mD#7
Destigmatise it, no need to hide it
F#G#7C#G#7C#
You can get through it, just like I do it, ADHD
