Dear Porcupine chords by Melanie Martinez

CAPO 4

Am             C
Drown me in my daily cup of tea
F                      E
Tell the porcupines to quit stabbing me
     Am                C
They make me fall, but I will stand
       F                                E
'Cause all of them are jerks with their cups in their hands
Am                         C
Now they want a whisper, a whisper from me
       F                                    E
'Cause all of them have watched me on their big screen TV's
    Am                     C
But what about little old, little old me?
    F                     E
The one who got bullied because of her teeth

  Am                           C
I hope you all are watching my middle finger rise
       F                            E
To the bullies in the schoolyard, I know I'm on your mind
Am                           C
Now you say you love me, but what about before?
     F                           E
When I was just the silly little girl next door
   Am   C
Oh oh
    F    E
Ooohoooh

Am                     C
Ladies, oh ladies, why are you so mad?
       F                     E
Is it 'cause I'm classy, and you're a trash bag?
     Am                       C
Your teasing and laughing resonates through my heart
    F                                E
And now you're calling me 'cause you want a fresh start
    Am                    C
Now look at you boys, you can't believe your eyes
    F                        E
You told me I was ugly and I took you by surprise
    Am                           C
You should've been nicer, 'cause look where I'm at
          F                       E
While you copy Mac Miller wearing snap-back hats

  Am                           C
I hope you all are watching my middle finger rise
       F                            E
To the bullies in the schoolyard, I know I'm on your mind
Am                           C
Now you say you love me, but what about before?
     F                           E
When I was just the silly little girl next door
   Am   C
Oh oh
    F    E
Ooohoooh

Am                       C                         F          E
Why must you be so mean, talking trash about me?
Am                           C                               F        E
All I wanted was a friend to laugh and cry and spend all of eternity
               F     E
Or even just a week

Am C F E

  Am                           C
I hope you all are watching my middle finger rise
       F                            E
To the bullies in the schoolyard, I know I'm on your mind
Am                           C
Now you say you love me, but what about before?
     F                           E
When I was just the silly little girl next door
   Am   C    F    E   Am (hold)
Oooh
