Guitar chords with lyrics

Contributed by Ingo Schneider

  • Difficulty: Beginner 👶
Verse 1:
G/D
Everybody's so punk on the internet
Cmaj7/G
Everyone's unbothered 'til they're not
G/D
Every joke's just trolling and memes
Cmaj7/G
Sad as it seems, apathy is hot
G/D
Everybody's cutthroat in the comments
Cmaj7/G
Every single hot take is cold as ice
G/D
When you found me, I said I was busy
Cmaj7/G
That was a lie
Pre-♫ Chorus:
G/D
I have been afflicted by a terminal uniqueness
Cmaj7/G
I've been dying just from trying to seem cool

♫ Chorus:
G/D
But I'm not a bad bitch
Cmaj7/G
And this isn't savage
G/D
But I'm never gonna let you down
Cmaj7/G
I'm never gonna leave you out
G/D
So many traitors
Cmaj7/G
Smooth operators
G/D
But I'm never gonna break that vow
Cmaj7/G
I'm nеver gonna leave you now, now, now

♫ Verse 2:
G/D
You know, thе last time I laughed this hard was
Cmaj7/G
On the trampoline in somebody's backyard
G/D
I must've been about eight or nine
Cmaj7/G
That was the night I fell off and broke my arm
G/D
Pretty soon, I learned cautious discretion
Cmaj7/G
When your first crush crushes something kind
G/D
When I said I don't believe in marriage
Cmaj7/G
That was a lie

Pre-♫ Chorus:
G/D
Every eldest daughter was the first lamb to the slaughter
Cmaj7/G
So we all dressed up as wolves and we looked fire

♫ Chorus:
G/D
But I'm not a bad bitch
Cmaj7/G
And this isn't savage
G/D
But I'm never gonna let you down
Cmaj7/G
I'm never gonna leave you out
G/D
So many traitors
Cmaj7/G
Smooth operators
G/D
But I'm never gonna break that vow
Cmaj7/G
I'm never gonna leave you now, now, now

♫ Bridge:
D
We lie back
Em
A beautiful, beautiful time-lapse
C
Ferris wheels, kisses, and lilacs
Dsus4
And things I said were dumb
D
'Cause I thought that I'd never find that
Em
Beautiful, beautiful life that
C
Shimmers that innocent light back
Dsus4
Like when we were young

Pre-♫ Chorus:
G/D
Every youngest child felt
Cmaj7
They were raised up in the wild
G/D
But now you're home

♫ Chorus:
G/D
'Cause I'm not a bad bitch
Cmaj7/G
And this isn't savage
G/D
And I'm never gonna let you down
Cmaj7/G
I'm never gonna leave you out
G/D
So many traitors
Cmaj7/G
Smooth operators
G/D
But I'm never gonna break that vow (Never gonna break that vow)
Cmaj7/G
I'm never gonna leave you now, now, now

♫ Outro:
G/D
Never gonna break that vow (Oh)
Cmaj7/G
I'm never gonna leave you now, now
G/D
I'm never gonna leave you now

Cmaj7/G

About this song

"Eldest Daughter" by Taylor Swift was written by Swift, Max Martin, and Shellback, and released as track 5 on her twelfth studio album The Life of a Showgirl on October 3, 2025. It's a soft rock piano ballad exploring "eldest daughter syndrome," vulnerability, perfectionism, and the contrast between public toughness and private sincerity, often interpreted as a love song nodding to her relationship with Travis Kelce (a youngest son). Shellback performed bass guitar, guitar, piano, keyboards, and tambourine, providing the song's simple, supportive acoustic guitar layers and solid bass foundation over the piano-driven arrangement.
