Intro
[Gm7b5] [Fmaj7]
[Gm7b5] [Fmaj7]
[Gm7b5]
Verse 1
[Fmaj7] [F9]
Always felt like I needed to please her, or impress her
[Bbmaj7] [Gm7b5]
Though only in the hope that one day I would undress her
[Fmaj7]
Don't be offended
[F9] [Bbmaj7]
You think I'm 'bout to tell you that "I love you"
[Gm7b5]
But I really really really fucking don't
[Fmaj7]
See the months of obsession
[C] [Dbdim7]
And crying for hours
[Dm7] [Dbm7] [Cm7] [F9] [Bbmaj7]
I even started sitting down in the shower, girl
[C13]
I'll take my time on my own
[C7] [Fmaj7] [Gm7b5] [Fmaj7]
And I'll be fine now I'm alone
Verse 2
[Gm7b5] [Fmaj7] [F9]
Constantly told stories with a stretch of the truth
[Bbmaj7] [Amaj7] [Bbmaj7] [Amaj7] [Bbmaj7] [Gm7b5]
Trying hard to make memories to re - member from youth
[Fmaj7] [F9]
Desperately wanting you to be interested too
[Bbmaj7]
It's not clear what I need yet
[Gm7b5]
But it's clear it's not you
[Fmaj7] [C] [Dbdim7]
Here's what I'd say to any young man that's still interested in you
[Dm7] [Dbm7]
Do you prioritise the things in your life
[Cm7] [F9] [Bbmaj7]
The things that you hope to do
Cause if not then
[C13]
Mate you'd better trust me when I tell you that
[C7]
It's not worth forgetting about yourself
Because of one fucking girl
[Fmaj7] [C] [Dbdim7]
She may seem perfect, and gorgeous, and lovely
[Dm7]
You'll think she likes you
[Dbm7] [Cm7] [F9]
I mean I thought she loved me, no
[Bbmaj7]
But no
[C13]
Neither of us will get down from the shelf
[C7]
The only one she loves is herself
