Verse 1:
         F
I see myself in the mirror
     Am                              G
At eight years old wondering will I look like the faces
   Dm
I see on the magazines
         F
Will the world think I’m pretty
      Am
If I dress like this walk like that
     G
See myself in the mirror

I remember how
    Dm                        Am
I stole my mother's makeup, trying to look all grown up
               G
What are you doing?
                        F
She said, what are you doing?
           Dm
Trying to cover up my freckles
       Am
Wanna look just like the others
              G
What are you doing?
                F
She said, the truth is

Verse 2:
          F
I see myself in school yard
    Am
At twelve years old I was told
          G
I didn’t look like the others
      Dm
So I choose to take control
        F
I will do it on purpose
     Am
If I don’t fit in, I won’t fit in
     G
See myself in the mirror

I remember how
Dm
I cut my childhood curls off
Am
Forgot my natural colours
              G
What are you doing
                        F
I thought, what are you doing?
        Dm
I’m a rebel for no reason
Am
Said searching for the real me
              G
What are you doing?
               F
You know the truth is
