Verse 1:
Am            Am7       C
Sharpener's callin' me again
         Cmaj7           Am
Tryin' to turn it into some-
             Am7        C     Cmaj7
thing I can draw into my skin
Am          Am7            C
  Make it a picture that I love
            Cmaj7            Am
Instead of something that I wish
                    Am7                    C     Cmaj7
I could get in the bath and scrub right off

Why am I ashamed to look the way I do?

All ‘cause an escape to me was just a sharpener to you

Am          Am7             C
  Big old pill to inch around

There's no copping out this time
        Am7          C                                  Cmaj7
Try my best to get it down (Cet, get, get, get it down)
Am               Am7             C
  Sometimes seems like I'm still young
               Cmaj7           Am
Lookin' at the boy across the sink
                   Am7                  C              Cmaj7
Thinking "What the hell have you just done?" ("What the hell have you just done?")

Why am I ashamed to look the way I do?

All ‘cause an escape to me was just a sharpener to you
          C        Dm       Bb              F
Why am I afraid of things I let inside my room?
                 C     Dm           Bb            F   F7
Just wanted some company, broke the sharpener in two

You mean, why am I stupid?
            C   Dm                    Am
‘Cause you know you’re not trying to fix it
                   C          Dm
You mean, why am I like this?
                     Am
You say, why am I selfish?
           C    Dm                Am
‘Cause you know honey you can’t help it
