Key: Am

Verse 1:
Am                               F
   She found a boy that felt like home
C                                      G
   'Cause he had the poison from back there
Am                            F
   She saw the obvious but something about the smile
                C                                     G
Just kept her close, something to keep from feeling lonely
Am                               F
   She found it beautiful he's broken
C                                 G
   'Cause she was sure she could fix him
Am
   It's all she's ever known
     F
And this might be her only way to cope
C                                 G*
   She found a boy who felt like home

Pre-Chorus:
           Am*           F*            C*     G*
'Cause the man of the house was nevеr home
    Am*           F*         C*     G*
The man with her now is hеr home

Chorus:
      Am*             F*
So he hit her and it felt like a kiss
            C*                   G*
'Cause what she learned is that love looks like this
         Am*                       F*                      C*      G*
From the half-baked bone-brained bitch that she calls her father

Verse 2:
Am                               F
   She sees the bruises on her body
C                              G
   She knows its useless to defend
Am                                   F
   And it's never been this bad but this is nothing new
               C                                      G
When she's in love she thinks it's all part of the process
Am                              F
   And now when he moves she flinches
C                             G
   She'll never think she's pretty
Am                                     F                                 C
   She'll live her whole damn life in fear of walking home without her sister
                   G
Like she did back home
N.C.
She found a boy just to console her

Chorus:
      Am*             F*
So he hit her and it felt like a kiss
            C*                   G*
'Cause what she learned is that love looks like this
          Am*                      F*                       C*     G*
From the half-baked bone-brained bitch that she calls her father
