Tone: [Eb]
Verse 1:
[Eb]If I’m so smart and I’m so pretty,
 
Damn this town and damn this city.
You neve[Ab6]never give me anything [Bb6]that I want.
[Eb]No one seems to really care.
 
They’re just wholly unaware
Of all t[Ab6]the blood and sweat [Bb6]I cry before dawn.
 
Bridge:
[Ebmaj7]But you won’t understand
[Eb7]All the things that I am
[Ab]Cause' I’m crazy in ju[Abm]just too many ways. [Eb]
[Ebmaj7]But I get that little feel
[Eb7]When my heart starts beating; lungs stop breathing;
[Ab]All my fibers say[Abm]say to run a[Eb]away.
 
Chorus:
[Eb]Count my little scars, I’ve got dozens down inside
[Cm]I come complete and invincible, behind my dirty imbecile.
[Eb]All the things I’ve tried, boy: be cute, be dumb, be wise, be young.
[Cm]So don’t tell me what to fear in the darkness in this atmosphere.
 
Verse:
[Eb]Love my mum and love my daddy
 
Sure they messed me up but that is
Voices t[Ab6]that they left insid[Bb6]inside of my head.
[Eb]Darling, dearest, don’t you see
 
I’m tough, I’m smart, I’m bourgeois?
And I’ll[Ab6]I’ll play out this lie [Bb6]until we’re all dead.

Post-Chorus:
[Eb]Am I good? Is all I could enough [Cm]for you?
[Eb]I’m so scared of when and where I[Cm]I’ll find the truth.
