Verse 1:
F              A
Always felt like I needed to please her, or impress her
Dm                      Bbm
Though only in the hope that one day I would undress her
F

Don't be offended
A                   Bb
You think I'm 'bout to tell you that "I love you"
                  Bbm
But I really really really fucking don't
F
See the months of obsession
A
And crying for hours
Dm       A              Bb
I even started sitting down in the shower, girl
Bb    B       C
I'll take my time on my own
C            F
And I'll be fine now I'm alone

Bbm F

Verse 2:
F Bbm F            A
Constantly told stories with a stretch of the truth
    Dm                   Bbm
Trying hard to make memories to remember from youth
F               A
Desperately wanting you to be interested too
Bb
It's not clear what I need yet
Bb       Bbm
But it's clear it's not you
F                  Am
Here's what I'd say to any young man that's still interested in you
Dm
Do you prioritise the things in your life
              Bbm
The things that you hope to do
Bb
Cause if not then
Bb B C
Mate you'd better trust me when I tell you that
C
It's not worth forgetting about yourself

Because of one fucking girl
F           A
She may seem perfect, and gorgeous, and lovely
Dm
You'll think she likes you
    Dm      Bbm     Bb
I mean I thought she loved me, no
Bb
But no
Bb B C
Neither of us will get down from the shelf
C
The only one she loves is herself

(optional) end with an F
