GAME OVER

Verse 1:
Em                 G
I knew I was lucky
                      C
To get into this club
                  A
I knew I didn’t belong

Y’all made that clear
Em                             G
But I felt I deserved a chance

I was worthy—a player
C                     A
Held my pretty head high
N.C.
Then, you asked me

To have dinner


Verse 2:
        Em
I drank vodka
                   G
I played with your tie
            C
It was like playing
     A
With fire
    Em
You asked me to

Come back
        G
To your place
            C
I wanted to see it

See how the other half lived
       A
On the Upper West Side


Chorus:
           Em
I told you NO
              G
That word was NO
        C
No, no, no

I don’t want to
A
Sleep with you
           Em
But you persisted
               G
That fire that began
         C
Over ravioli
                 Em
Burned me to the ground


Verse 3:
     Em
I was nothing

More than
  G
A conquest
        C
Another victory
    A
For you
  Em                 G
A big, unrecoverable loss

For me
    C
You won
  A
I lost


Chorus:
           Em
I told you NO
              G
That word was NO
        C
No, no, no

I don’t want to
A
Sleep with you
           Em
But you persisted
               G
That fire that began
         C
Over ravioli
                 Em
Burned me to the ground


Solo:
Em    G    C    A


Bridge:
            Em
You left me charred
                          G
But I pushed through that scar
                  C
Yeah, you took my agency
                       A
But you didn’t take my dignity


Chorus:
           Em
I told you NO
              G
That word was NO
        C
No, no, no

I don’t want to
A
Sleep with you
           Em
But you persisted
               G
That fire that began
         C
Over ravioli
                 Em     G
Burned me to the ground


Outro:
G         C
I’m still here.
                 Em
And I’ve got the mic now.
