 Ever since Eden we're built for pleasing everyone knows
                         C                       Em        Am    D
 And ever since Adam cracked his ribs and let us go I know

 Oh yes I know

Chorus
  Em                             D                           C
 Who taught you how to lie so well and to believe in each and every word you
  G       Em                                   D
say?  Who told you that nothing about you is alright
                  C                                                    G
 It's just no use, it's just no good you'll never be O.K.?
D                              Dm                                            Am
 Well I know, I know that wrong's been done to you "It's such a tough
                                   G      Dm                               Am
world," that's what you say.  Well I know, I know it's easier said than done
                   C                G                                C   Em Am D
 But that's enough girl, give it away give it, give it, give it all away.
   C                                       Em      Am                         D
 Tell yourself that you're not pretty, look at you, you're beautiful.
 C                        Em               Am                         D
 Tell yourself that no one sees Plain Jane invisible to me, just tell yourself.
  C                           Em             Am                                D
 Tell yourself you'll never be like the anorexic beauties in the magazines.

   C                                 Em              Am                        D
 Just a bargain basement Barbie doll, no belle du jour, no femme fatale

Just tell yourself.



  C                             Em                       Am                   D
 Tell yourself there's nothing worse than the pain inside and the way it hurts
C                        Em                         Am         D     C      Em
tell yourself it's nothing new cause everybody feels it too, they feel it too.
Am D
   C                              Em                  Am             D      C
 And there's just no getting 'round the fact that your thirteen right now
