It's hard to say
G C
It's hard to say
D G C(9)G
It's all for you
Intro- C
C
Well the times are getting hard for you, little girl
G D
I'm a humming and a strumming, all over God's world
C
You can't remember when you got your last meal
G D
And you don't know just how a woman feels
Bb Eb
You didn't know what rock and roll was, until you met my drummer on a grey tour bus
Bb Eb C
I got there in the nick of time, before he got his hands across your state line, yeah
Interlude- C
C
Now it's the middle of the night on the open road
G D
And the heater don't work and it's oh so cold
C
You're looking tired, you're looking kind of beat
G D
The rhythm of the street sure knocks you off your feet
Bb Eb
You didn't know how rock and roll looked, until you caught your sister with the guys from the group
Bb Eb
Halfway home in the parking lot, by the look in her eye she was giving what she got
C F C F
My, my, my, I'm once bitten, twice shy, Baby, my, my, my, I'm once bitten, twice shy, Baby
C F G
My, my, my, I'm once bitten, twice shy, Baby
C
Woman you're a mess going to die in your sleep
G D
There's blood on my amp and my Les Paul's beat
C
Can't keep you home, you're messing around
G D
My best friend told me you're the best lick in town
Bb Eb
You didn't know that rock and roll burned, so you bought a candle and you lived and you learned
Bb Eb
You got the rhythm you got the speed, Mama's little baby likes it short and sweet
C F C F
My, my, my, I'm once bitten, twice shy, Baby, my, my, my, I'm once bitten, twice shy, Baby
C F G
My, my, my, I'm once bitten, twice shy, Baby
Solo- C G D C G D
Bb Eb
I didn't know you had a rock and roll record, until I saw your picture on another guy's jacket
Bb Eb
You told me I was the only one, but look at you now, it's dark and you're gone
C F C F
My, my, my, I'm once bitten, twice shy, Baby, my, my, my, I'm once bitten, twice shy, Baby
C F C F
My, my, my, I'm once bitten, twice shy, Baby, my, my, my, I'm once bitten, twice shy
C F C F
So shy, so shy (repeat, fade)

Rythym-
B
Born down in a dead man's town
The first kick I took was when I hit the ground
E
End up like a dog that's been beat too much
Till you spend half your life just covering up
B
Born in the U.S.A., I was born in the U.S.A.
E B
I was born in the U.S.A., born in the U.S.A. now
B
Got in a little hometown jam
So they put a rifle in my hand
E
Sent me off to a foreign land
To go and kill the yellow man
B
Born in the U.S.A., I was born in the U.S.A.
E B
I was born in the U.S.A., born in the U.S.A. now
B
Come back home to the refinery
Hiring man said Son if it was up to me
E
Went down to see my V.A. man
| B | B | B | B | E | E | E | E |
He said Son, don't you understand
B
I had a brother at Khe Sahn
Fighting off the Viet Cong
E
They're still there, he's all gone
B
He had a woman he loved in Saigon
| E | E | E | E |
I got a picture of him in her arms now
B
Down in the shadow of the penitentiary
Out by the gas fires of the refinery
E
I'm ten years burning down the road
Nowhere to run ain't got nowhere to go
B
Born in the U.S.A., I was born in the U.S.A.
E B
Born in the U.S.A., I'm a long gone Daddy in the U.S.A. now
Born in the U.S.A., Born in the U.S.A.

It's the hard knock lCife (uh-huh) Dfor Eus
It's the hard knock lEife, Dfor Cus!!
Steada Treated,Cwe Dget Etricked
Steada kisses, Ewe gDet Ckicked
It's the hard knock life!! C D E
Verse
Just keep repeating C D E, E D C But here are the rest of the words-
From standin on the corners boppin
to drivin some of the hottest cars New York has ever seen
For droppin some of the hottest verses rap has ever heard
From the dope spot, with the smoke Glock
fleein the murder scene, you know me well
from nightmares of a lonely cell, my only hell
But since when y'all z know me to fail? Fuck naw
Where all my z with the rubber grips, bust shots
And if you with me mom I rub on your tits, and what-not
I'm from the school of the hard knocks, we must not
let outsiders violate our blocks, and my plot
let's stick up the world and split it fifty/fifty, uh-huh
Let's take the dough and stay real jiggy, uh-huh
And sip the Cris' and get pissy-pissy
Flow infinitely like the memory of my Biggie, baby!
You know it's hell when I come through
The life and times of Shawn Carter
Volume 2, y'all z get ready
Chorus
Verse
I flow for those 'dro'ed out; all my z
locked down in the ten by fo', controllin the house
We live in hard knocks, we don't take over we borrow blocks
Burn em down and you can have it back daddy, I'd rather that
I flow for chicks wishin, they ain't have to strip to pay tuition
I see you vision mama, I put my money on the longshots
All my ballers that's born to clock
Now Imma be on top whether I perform or not
I went from lukewarm to hot; sleepin on futons and cots
to King Size, dream machines, the green fives
I've seen pies let the thing between my eyes analyze life's ills
Then I put it down type braile
I'm tight grill with the phony, rappers y'all might feel we homies
I'm like still, y'all don't know me, shit!
I'm tight grill when my situation ain't improvin
I'm tryin to murder everything movin, feel me?!
Chorus
Verse
I don't KNOW how to sleep, I gotta eat, stay on my toes
Gotta a lot of beef, so logically, I prey on my foes
Hustling's still inside of me, and as far as progress
you'd be hard-pressed, to find another rapper hot as me
I gave you prophecy on my first joint, and y'all lamed out
Didn't really appreciate it, til the second one came out
So I stretched the game out, X'ed your name out
Put Jigga on top, and drop albums non-stop for ya, uh!
Chorus x2
... It's the hard knock life!!
................ it's the hard knock life!!

song today
(Em... D.... G... Bm....A... continued for the rest of the song)
i learned the hard way
that they all say
things you wanna hear
and my heavy heart
sings deep down under you
and your twisted words
your help just hurts
you were not what i thought you were
hello to high and dry
convinced me to please you
made me think that i need this too
i'm trying to let you hear me as i am
i'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you asked for it
'cause you need one, you see
i'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it's
make or break in this
if your on your way
i'm not gonna write you to stay
if all you have is leavin' im'a need a better reason to write you a love song today
promise me
you'll leave the light on
to help me see
(im guessing)- with daylight, my guide, gone (it sounds like something like that..)
'cause i believe there's a way
you can love me because i say
i wont write you a love song
'cause you asked for it
'cause you need one you see
i'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it's make or break in this
is that why you wanted a love song
'cause you asked for it
'cause you need one you see
im not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it's make or break in this
if your on your way
im not gonna write you to stay
if your heart is no where in it
i dont want it for a minute
babe ill walk the seven seas
when i believe that there's a reason
to write you a love song today
[Verse 1] G Em C | Am D 2X
You always had an eye for things that glitter
but I was far from being made of gold
I don't know how but I scraped up the money
I just never could quite tell you no
Just like when you were leaving Amarillo
Takin' that new job in Tennessee
and I quit mine so we could be together
I can't forget the way you looked at me
[Chorus]
G D Em
Just to see you smile
C Em D
I'd do anything that you wanted me to
G D Em
when all is said and done
C
I'd never count the cost
A7 C
It's worth all that's lost
D G
Just to see you smile
[Verse 2] G Em C D 2X
When you said time was all you really needed
I walked away and let you have your space
Cause leaving didn't hurt me near as badly
as the tears I saw rolling down your face
and yesterday I knew just what you wanted
when you came walking up to me with him
so I told you that I was happy for you
and given the chance I'd lie again
[Chorus]

Says, Come here boy, there ain't nothin' for free.
Am C G
Another doctor's bill, a lawyer's bill, another cute, cheap thrill.

You know you love him if you put him in your will.

But who will save your soul when it comes to the flowers, now?

Who will save your souls after those lies that you told, boy?

So we pray to as many different gods as there are flowers.

Oh, ooh wee oh, oh
When I'm looking at you I keep thinking
Why can't she be like you, so I'm scheming
I can't go on like this
Believing that her love is true, oh
Standing on the dance floor while she's trickin'
You are all I want girl, she's a chicken
We
I won't lie to you
I know he's just not right for you
And you can tell me if I'm off But I see it on your face
When you say that he's the one that you want
And you're spending all your time In this wrong situation
And anytime you want it to stop
Chorus: I know I can treat you better than he can
And any girl like you deserves a gentleman
Tell me, why are we wasting time
On all your wasted crying
When you should be with me instead?
I know I can treat you better
Better than he can
I'll stop time for you
The second you say you'd like me too
I just wanna give you the loving that you're missing
Baby, just to wake up with you
Would be everything I need, and this could be so different
Tell me what you want to do
Chorus:

Give me a sign
Take my hand, we'll be fine

Verse 1:
Oh, once upon a midnight eerie I woke with something in my head
I couldn't escape the memory Of a phone call and of what you said
Like a game show contestant with a parting gift
I could not believe my eyes
When I saw through the voice of a trusted friend
Who needs to humor me and tell me lies,
yeah humor me and tell me lies
And I'll lie too and say I don't mind And as we seek so shall we find
And when you're feeling open I'll still be here
But not without a certain degree of fear
Well, what will be with you and me I still can see things hopefully
Chorus:
But you Why you wanna give me a run-around?
Is it a sure-fire way to speed things up?
When all it does is slow me down
Verse 2:
Shake me and my confidence About a great many things
But I've been there I can see it cower
Like a nervous magician waiting in the wings
Of a bad play where the heroes are right
And nobody thinks or expects too much
And Hollywood's calling for the movie rights
Singing "Hey babe, let's keep in touch",
hey baby, let's keep in touch
But I want more than a touch I want you to reach me
And show me all the things no one else can see
So what you feel becomes mine as well
And soon if we're lucky we'd be unable to tell
What's yours and mine, the fishing's fine
And it doesn't have to rhyme, so don't you feed me a line
Chorus:
Verse 3:
Tra la la la la bombardier, this is the pilot speaking
I've got some news for you
It seems my ship still stands no matter what you drop
And there ain't a whole lot that you can do
Oh sure the banner may be torn and the wind's gotten colder
Perhaps I've grown a little cynical
But I know no matter what the waitress brings
I shall drink it and always be full, yeah I will drink it and always be full
Oh I like coffee and I like tea I'd like to be able to enter a final plea
I still got this dream that you just can't shake
I love you to the point you can no longer take
Well all right okay, so be that way
I hope and pray that there's something left to say
Chorus:

[VERSE] C / / / C / G / F / C / G / / /
Spent forty-eight dollars last night at the county fair.
I throwed out my shoulder, but I won her that Teddy Bear.
She's got me saying,"Sugar Pie, Honey, Darlin', and Dear."
I ain't seen the Braves play a game all year.
I’m gonna get fired, if I don't get some sleep.
My long lost buddies say I'm gettin' in too deep.
[CHORUS] C F G C
But I like it, I love it, I want some more of it.
I try, so hard, I can't rise above it
Don't know what it is, about that little gal's lovin'
But I like it, I love it, I want some more of it.
[VERSE]
My momma and daddy tried to teach me courtesy.
But it never sank in,'til that girl got a hold of me.
Now, I'm holdin' umbrellas and opening up doors.
I'm taking out the trash, and I'm sweepin' my floors.
I'm crossing my fingers and countin' every kiss.
Prayin' that it keeps goin' on like this.
[CHORUS]
[BRIDGE]

Gotta wash my truck, and dress up.

To pick her up to watch T.V.

Overdosed on confidence
D
Started not to give a fuck and stop fearing the consequence
Bm
Drinking every night because we drink to my accomplishments
Faded way too long I'm floating in and out of consciousness
And they sayin' I'm back, I'd agree with that
I just take my time with all this shit, I still believe in that
I had someone tell me I fell off, ohh I needed that
And they wanna see me pick back up, well where'd I leave it at
I know I exaggerated things, now I got it like that
Tuck my napkin in my shirt, cause I'm just mobbin' like that
You know good and well that you don't want a problem like that
You gone make someone around me catch a body like that
No don't do it, please don't do it, cause one of us goes in
And we all go through it
So Drizzy got the money, so Drizzy gone pay it
Those my brothers
[Chorus-]
I ain't even gotta say it
That's just something they know
They know, they know, they know
They know, they know, they know
They know, they know, they know
Yeah they know yeah
That the real is on the rise
Fuck them other guys
I even gave them a chance to decide
Now its something they know
They know, they know, they know
Yeah I be yelling out money over everything, money on my mind.
Then she wanna ask when it got so empty
Tell her I apologize it happened over time
[Verse 2-]
She says they missed the old drake, girl don't tempt me
If they don't get it, they'll be over you
That new shit that you got is overdue
You better do what you suppose to do
I'm like why I gotta be all that but still I can't deny the fact that it's true
Listen to you expressing all them feelings
Soap opera rappers all these s sound like all my children
And that's who you thinking is 'bout to come and make a killing
I guess it really is just me, myself and all my millions.
You know the game even got it like that.
You gone hype me up and make me catch a body like that
Cause I live for this it isn't just a hobby like that.
When they get my shit and play it
[Chorus]
I ain't even gotta say it
That's just something they know
They know, they know, they know
They know, they know, they know
They know, they know, they know
Yeah they know yeah
That the real is on the rise
Fuck them other guys
I even gave them a chance to decide
Now its something they know
They know, they know, they know
I be yelling out money over everything, money on my mind.
Tell em' I apologize it happened over time

Ah get born, keep warm
Short pants, romance, learn to dance
Get dressed, get blessed
Try to be a success
Please her, please him, buy gifts
Don't steal, don't lift
Twenty years of schoolin'
And they put you on the day shift

Look out kid
They keep it all hid

Better jump down a manhole
Light yourself a candle
Don't wear sandals
Try to avoid the scandals
E
Don't wanna be a bum
You better chew gum
A
The pump don't work
'Cause the vandals took the handles.

Do you know what's worth fighting for

When it's not worth dying for?

And you look for a place to hide?
Dm Bb F C
Does someone break your heart inside?

When you're at the end of the road
Dm Bb F C
And you lost all sense of control
Dm Bb F C
And your thoughts have taken their toll

Your faith walks on broken glass

And the hangover doesn't pass
Dm Bb F C
Nothing's ever built to last
Bb C
You're in ruins
(Repeat Chorus 1)

Tomorrow's sun will buildings scrape the sky?
C#m5
I love this country dearly
E
I can feel the latter clearly
Ab F#5
But I never thought I'd be alone to try
C#m5
Once I was outside Penn station
E
Selling red and white carnations
Ab
You were still alone,
F#5
My wife and I.
C#m5
Before we marry, save my money
E
Brought my dear wife over
Ab F#5
Now I want to bring my family state side
E Ab/Eb
Got off the boat they stayed a while
F#6 F#5
Then scattered 'cross the coast
E Ab/Eb F#6 F#5
Once a year I'll see them for a week or so at most
E8
I took a walk
B
Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk
F#5 Ab
Take a walk, oh-oh-oh
Take a walk, take a walk
E8
I took a walk
B
Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk
F#5 Ab F#5
Take a walk, oh-oh-oh
C#m5
Practice isn't perfect
E
But the markets cut a loss
Ab F#5
I remind myself that times could be much worse
C#m5
My wife won't ask me questions
E
It was not so much to ask
Ab F#5
And she'll never flaunt around an empty purse
C#m5
What's my mother lacking
E
Just to stay a couple nights
Ab F#5
And decided she will stay the rest of her life
C#m5 E
I watch my little children, play some board game in the kitchen
Ab F#5
And I sit and pray they never feel my strife.
E Ab/Eb F#6 F#5
But then my partner called to say the pension funds were gone
E Ab/Eb
He made some bad investments
F#6 F#5
Now the accounts are overdrawn
E8
I took a walk
B
Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk
F#5 Ab
Take a walk, oh-oh-oh
Take a walk, take a walk
E8
I took a walk
B
Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk
F#5 Ab F#5
Take a walk, oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh
C#m D#m E
Honey it's this loan I think I borrowed just too much
C#m D#m E
We had taxes we had bills, we had a lifestyle of fun
C#m D#m E F#
And tonight I swear I'll come home and we'll make love like we're young
E Eb/Ab F#6 F#5
Tomorrow you'll cook dinner for the neighbors and the kids
E Eb/Ab F#6 F#5
we could rip apart the socialists and all their damned taxes
E Eb/Ab F#6 F#5
You'll see I am no criminal, I'm down on both bad knees
E Eb/Ab F#6 F#5
I'm just too much a coward to admit when I'm in need
E8
I took a walk
B
Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk
F#5 Ab
Take a walk, oh-oh-oh
Take a walk, take a walk
E8
I took a walk

Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk

Take a walk, oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh

I took a walk

Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk

Take a walk, oh-oh-oh
Take a walk, take a walk

With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah

Sometimes a certain smell will take me back to when I was young
Am
How come I'm never able to identify where it's coming from
F Dm
I'd make a candle out of it, if I ever found it
Am
Try to sell it, never sell out of it, I'd probably only ever sell one
F Dm
I'd give it to my brother because we have the same nose
Am
Same clothes, home grown, the stones thrown from the creek we used to roam
F Dm
But it would remind of when nothing really mattered
Am
Out of student loans and tree house homes, we all would take the ladder

To fly
G Am Em C
To fly
I wish today it will rain all day
Maybe that will kinda make the pain go away
Trying to forgive you for abandoning me
Praying but I think I'm still an angel away
Angel away, yeah strange in a way
Maybe that is why I chase strangers away
They got their guns out aiming at me
But I become near when they aiming at me
Me, me, me against them
Me against enemies, me against friends
Somehow they both seem to become one
A sea full of sharks and they all see blood
They start coming and I start rising
Must be surprising, I'm just summising
Win, thrive, soar, higher, higher, higher
More fire

Everybody wanna try to box me in
Suffocating everytime it locks me in
Paint they own pictures than they crop me in
But I will remain where the top begins
Cause I am not a word, I am not a line
I am not a girl that can every be defined
I am not fly, I am levitation
I represent an entire generation
I hear the criticism loud and clear
That is how I know that the time is near
So we become alive in a time of fear
And I aint got no muthaf-cking time to spare
Cry my eyes out for days upon days
Such a heavy burden placed upon me
G Am Em C
I came to win, to fight, to conquer, to thrive

I came to win, to survive, to prosper, to rise

I work hard speak soft and carry a big stick
I ain't scurr'd I Ain't worr'd About You and your cheap tricks
beat me till i'm numb never will i succomb
patiently I will wait until your tantrum is done
and then step up to the plate i will
stand tall and still spewing bad ass lick
hoping one day it will all pay off
better sooner than later
i'm so ready for take off.

Verse I]
Am G F
Aren't you somethin' to admire, cause your shine is somethin' like a mirror
Am G F
And I can't help but notice, you reflect in this heart of mine
Am G F
If you ever feel alone and the glare makes me hard to find
Am G F
Just know that I'm always parallel on the other side
[Pre-Chorus]
Am G
Cause with your hand in my hand and a pocket full of soul
F
I can tell you there's no place we couldn't go
Am G
Just put your hand on the glass, I'm here tryin' to pull you through
F
You just gotta be strong
[Chorus]
C
Cause I don't wanna lose you now
G F
I'm lookin' right at the other half of me
C
The vacancy that sat in my heart
G F
Is a space that now you hold
C
Show me how to fight for now
G F
And I'll tell you baby, it was easy
C
Comin' back into you once I figured it out
G F
You were right here all along
C
It's like you're my mirror
G F
(oh oh) My mirror staring back at me
C
I couldn't get any bigger
G F
(oh oh) With anyone else beside of me
C
And now it's clear as this promise
G F
That we're making two reflections into one
C
Cause it's like you're my mirror
G F
(oh oh) My mirror staring back at me, staring back at me
[Verse II]
Am G F
Aren't you somethin' an original cause it doesn't seem really as simple
Am G F
And I can't help but stare cause I see truth somewhere in your eyes
Am G F
I can't ever change without you, you reflect me, I love that about you
Am G F
And if I could, I would look at us all the time
[Pre-Chorus]
Am G
Cause with your hand in my hand and a pocket full of soul
F
I can tell you there's no place we couldn't go

Just put your hand on the glass, I'm here tryin' to pull you through

You just gotta be strong

Am F C G
Yesterday is history
Am F C G
Tomorrow's a mystery
Am F C G
I can see you lookin' back at me
Am F C
Keep your eyes on me, baby, keep your eyes on me
[Chorus]
G C
Cause I don't wanna lose you now
G F
I'm lookin' right at the other half of me
C
The vacancy that sat in my heart
G F
Is a space that now you hold
C
Show me how to fight for now

And I'll tell you baby, it was easy

And I just wanna see your face light up since you put me on
Am G F
So now I say goodbye to the old me, it's already gone

And I can't wait wait wait wait wait to get you home
Just to let you know, you are

Memories consume
Like opening the wound
I'm picking me apart again
You all assume
I'm safe here in my room
Unless I try to start again
[Chorus]

I don't want to be the one

The battles always choose

Cuz inside I realize

That I'm the one confused

I don't know what's worth fighting for

Or why I have to scream

I don't know why I instigate

And say what I don't mean

I don't know how I got this way

I know it's not alright

Clutching my cure
I tightly lock the door
I try to catch my breath again
I heard much more
Than anytime before
I have no options left again

the fingering may look strange, but its a smooth transition going from the G/E > F#/E >
since all you're doing is just sliding down the fretboard. In addition to the chords,
is a dissonent melody that is played during the intro and the chorus. Again on the
recording a keyboard is used, but it sounds pretty cool on an electic guitar with heavy distortion-

when I was young I knew everything
C#m B A
and she a punk who rarely ever took advice
E A
now I'm guilt stricken sobbing with my head on the floor
C#m B A
stop a baby's breath and a shoe full of rice (no)
-chorus-
C#m B A
I can't be held responsible

'cause she was touching her face

I won't be held responsible

she fell in love in the first place

we'd ever die for these sins we were merely freshmen
-verse2-
my best friend took a week's vacation to forget her
his girl took a week's worth of valium and slept
and now he's guilt stricken sobbing with his head on the floor
thinks about her now and how he never really wept, he says...

-verse3-
we've tried to wash our hands of all of this
we never talk of our lacking relationships
and how we're guilt stricken sobbing with our heads on the floor
we fell through the ice, when we tried not to slip, we'd say it...

{ Am C F } 2x
{ F C G }
F
Looking back at the beginning of this
Am
And how life was
F
Just you and me and love and all of our friends
Am
Living life like an ocean
F
Now the currents slowly pulling me down
Am
It's getting harder to breath
F
It won't be too long and I'll be going under
Am
Can you save me from this
Am F
Cause It's not my time,
C
I'm not going
G G
There's a fear in me It's not showing
F
This could be the end of me
C G
And everything I know
F Am
Oh, I won't go
F
I look ahead to all the plans that we made
Am
And the dreams that we had
F
I'm in a world that tries to take them away
Am
Oh, but I'm taking them back
F
All this time I've just been to blind to understand
Am
What should matter to me
My friend, this life we live
Is not what we have, it's what we believe
It's not my time
I'm not going
There's a fear in me
It's not showing
This could be the end of me
And everything I know
Oh, It's not my time
I'm not going
There's a fear in me
Now I know that
This could be the end of me
And everything I know
Oh, I won't go
I won't go
It might be more than you believe
It might be something you can't see
It's not my time
I'm not going
There's a fear in me
It's not showing
This could be the end of me
And everything I know
It's not my time
I'm not going
There's a will in me
Now it's gonna show
This could be the end of me
And everything I know
I won't go
There might be more than you believe
There might be more than you can see
It's not my time
I'm not going
There's a fear in me
It's not showing
This could be the end of me
And everything I know
It's not my time
I'm not going
There's a will in me
Now I know it
This could be the end of me
And everything I know
I won't go
I won't go!
No I wooooon't gooooo down!

She just wants to be

Beautiful she goes

Unnoticed, she knows

No limits she craves

Attention, she praises
An image

She prays to be

Sculpted by the sculptor
[VERSE]
F
Oh, she don't see
Am
The light that's shining
F
Deeper than the eyes can find it
Am
Maybe we have made her blind
G F
So she tries to cover up her pain
Am
And cut her woes away
F
'Cause covergirls don't cry
After their face is made
[CHORUS]

But there's a hope

That's waiting for you in the dark

An envy, so she's
Starving you know,
Am G F
covergirls eat nothing she says

Beauty is pain and there's beauty in everything

What's a little bit of hunger?
I could go a little while longer,
F
She fades away
G F
She don't see her perfect,
Am
She don't understand she's worth it
F
Or that beauty goes deeper than the surface
Am
Oh Oh
G
Oh oh
F
So to all the girls that's hurting
Am
Let me be your mirror,
F
Help you see a little bit clearer
The light that shines within
