Dear Porcupine Ukulele chords by Melanie Martinez

Verse

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

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

Verse

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


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

Bridge

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

Interlude: Dbm E A Ab

To the bullies in the schoolyard, I know I'm on your mind

When I was just the silly little girl next door
   Dbm   E    A    Ab   Dbm
Oooh
