Intro:

E F#m A x2
 
Verse 1:
E           F#m          A
I swear the bar is set in hell
E               F#m            A
Cause I almost tripped several times
E           F#m       A
Mistake attention for effort
         C#m      B      A
Get paid in nickels and dimes
E           F#m            A
I spent the best years of my youth
E              F#m      A
Trying to keep up the charade
E              F#m         A
They're always saying I'm "too much"
         C#m    B     A
I guess they prefer man-made

[Pre-chorus]
     F#                        A
But, I'm terrified to walk the streets at night
F#
They flash their brights and ask me
A
Why my dress fits so tight
 
Chorus:
E   F#m     A
He throws a tantrum, they throw a parade
E     F#m     A
I maintain composure, they ask me why I'm
C#m  B    A
So jaded all the time
But I know
F#7sus4        A
Pressure makes diamonds
Sometimes
 
E F#m A x2
 
Verse 2:
E           F#m        A
He's always playing the victim
E                  F#m        A
And they all seem stuck in his game
E         F#m        A
Feel the adrenaline rushing
     C#m        B       A
Tell myself to just stay sane
 
[Pre-chorus]
     F#      A
But, I'm terrified to walk the streets at night
F#     A
They flash their brights and ask me
 
Why my dress fits so tight
 
Chorus:
E   F#m     A
He throws a tantrum, they throw a parade
E     F#m     A
I maintain composure, they ask me why I'm
C#m  B    A
So jaded all the time
But I know
F#7sus4        A
Pressure makes diamonds
 
Bridge:
A                        B
I'm sick of these double standards
                       C#m
Smile more, keep to my manners
                   B      A
Play it coy, don't offend anyone
A                        B
But he's always having a breakdown
                      F#
When he don't get his way now
                A
Later loser, I'm done
 
Chorus:
E   F#m     A
He throws a tantrum, they throw a parade
E     F#m     A
I maintain composure, they ask me why I'm
C#m  B    A
So jaded all the time
But I know
F#7sus4        A
Pressure makes diamonds
E   F#m     A
He throws a tantrum, they throw a parade
E     F#m     A
I maintain composure, they ask me why I'm
C#m  B    A
So jaded all the time
But I know
F#7sus4        A
Pressure makes diamonds
Sometimes
