• Difficulty: Beginner 👶

Key: C

Intro:
F
Ah

Verse 1:
        Am
Chewing gum, I know
               F
Don't have the sour taste that's in my throat
        C
But the voice in my head says,
                 G/B
"Do you have the stones?"
          Am
When you get close enough
              F
I'll let down my braids and you'll climb up
       C                           G/D
In my room we can do anything you want

Pre-chorus:
        Am
Everyone that I've slept with
        F
All the pairs of hands, I'm reckless
                C
If I'm fine without it
            G/B
Why can't I stop?
       Am                          F
Everything I want speeding up my pulse
                               C
I don't sleep, don't dream at all
                      G/B
Give 'em nothing personal

So I'm not affected

Chorus:
C                                     G
  I've been the ice, I've been the flame
                                      Am
I've been the prize, the ball, the chain
                               F
I've been the dice, the magic eight
                 C
So I'm not affected
                                G
I've been the siren, been the saint
                                  Am
I've been the fruit that leaves a stain
                           F
I've been up on the pedestal
                             C
But tonight I just wanna fall

Post-chorus:
G                          Am
  Tonight I just wanna fall
F
  Yeah, tonight I just wanna fall

Verse 2:
           Am
Mirror, mirror, on his shirt
        F
I see a hot mess in an antique skirt
          C
But the voice in my head says
                        G/B
"Don't let him leave alone"
    Am
I become her again (Ah, ah, ah, ah)
        F
Visions of a teenage innocence (Ah, ah, ah, ah)
C                               G/D
  How'd I shift shape like that?

Pre-chorus:
      Am
Everyone that I've slept with
         F
All the metal that I've messaged
                C
If I'm fine without it
            G/B
Why can't I stop?
       Am                        F
Everything I want speeding up my pulse
                               C
I don't sleep, don't dream at all
                      G/B
Give 'em nothing personal
   G/D
So I'm not affected

Chorus:
C                                     G
  I've been the ice, I've been the flame
                                      Am
I've been the prize, the ball, the chain
                               F
I've been the dice, the magic eight
                 C
So I'm not affected
                                G
I've been the siren, been the saint
                                  Am
I've been the fruit that leaves a stain
                           F
I've been up on the pedestal
                   N.C.       C
But tonight I just wanna fall

Post-chorus:
G                          Am
  Tonight I just wanna fall
F
  Yeah, tonight I just wanna fall

Bridge:
C                                  G
  I'll kick you out and pull you in
                            Am
Swear that you were just friends
                         F
And when it's all over again
                   C
Say I'm not affected
                               G
I'll kick you out and pull you in (Ah, shapeshifter)
                          Am
You said you were just a friend (Shapeshifter)
                         F
And when it's all over again (Ah)
                      C  G
Say I'm not affected (Ah-ah)

Outro:
    Am
Ah-ah
     F
Ah-hah
                    C
No, I'm not affected
G                               Am  F
  But tonight, I just wanna fall
