Verse:

       DmDm                C majorC
Well you're traipsin' up and down my backyard
         G+G
Get too cold, I'd die
DmDm
Diggin' through my trashcans
      C majorC            G+G
With that white rope tied around your neck
    DmDm                 C majorC
You mistake me for some southern goddess
          G+G
Some delta girl done wrong
    DmDm             C majorC
But I'm fixin' the knot through whatever I have to
 B minorBm          E MajorE
To stay silent, get gone

Chorus:

     A minorAm     C majorC
One two three, I hate me
    G+G               D MajorD
There's no one else who I know how to be
     A minorAm      C majorC
Four five six, oh your body makes me sick
G+G                D MajorD
Don't take it away from me just yet
    C minorCm
There's no one I can think of
     G+G
That I can stand less than you
 B minorBm                 A minorAm
Don't you want to touch my hands before you go?
         G+G
I think I'm confused


Verse:

    DmDm
I can feel my food digestin'
    C majorC       G+G
And I'm beggin' it to cease
  DmDm                   C majorC             G+G
My stomach's crushed against my lungs and you're, you're pushin' at my seams
    DmDm
And I seen the way you eye me up,
     C majorC                   G+G
Like a chunk of meat, like a chunk of meat gone bad
       DmDm                  C majorC
Like you were wishing I was something still worth having
    B minorBm           E MajorE
You can go ahead, go ahead and have


Chorus:

     A minorAm      C majorC
One two three, I still hate me
    G+G               D MajorD
There's no one else who I know how to be
     A minorAm      C majorC
Four five six, oh your body makes me sick
G+G                D MajorD
Don't take it away from me just yet
    C minorCm
There's no one I can think of
     G+G
That I can stand less than you
 B minorBm                 A minorAm
Don't you want to touch my hands before you go?
         G+G
