Guitar chords with lyrics
Tuning: G C E A (G C E A) Difficulty: Novice Verse 1: F#m A My friends always tell me I get carried away Sometimes I spit when I talk cuz I have so much to say F#m A They don't seem to hear me but I guess it's ok It's not their fault my minds working overtime with no pay F#m A They always say the same things and it's starting to get old That my head can't get sick It can't catch a cold F#m I scratch and I pick A My insecurities poke My fears, my anxiety, a voice that provokes F#m A Take a walk, clear your head, breathe in count to ten F#m A Cuz on the first page of life written in red You'll never make it here if you don't learn how to bend Chorus: A D Don't speak unless you're spoken to, little girl A D Someday you will find your place in the world F#m But ladies don't get dirty D A Someday you'll learn to fill the empty space D With empty faith
Verse 2: F#m A Everyday feels like a battle and I always get hurt I was frequently told violence was never the answer F#m A But life doesn't abide by the rules of a child I don't know how to fight only taught how to surrender F#m A There's a certain kind of darkness that does a reaping It usually takes you right before you are sleeping F#m A Is it the crack in the door that it finds a way to creep in? Or the crack in your brain that wants you to drop dead F#m. A I don't remember what it's like to see with clear vision I awake every morning like the dead has arisen F#m A I don't have to think this body of mine is a prison You don't control me I just gotta find the light switch F#m A But the more that I look the further I get You're the only thing about me that needs to be fixed F#m A Cuz on the first page of life written in fine print Stop looking for light, live it instead Chorus: A D Don't speak unless you're spoken to, little girl A D Someday you will find your place in the world F#m But ladies don't get dirty D A Someday you'll learn to fill the empty space D With empty faith Bridge: F#m My mind is a mess but I love it none the less D They tell me to hush but my words are all that's left A So on the last page of life written in gold D Don't waste it always doing what you're told
