PRETTY HURTS
BEYONCE


B                   C#m
mama said, you're a pretty girl
G#m                     E
what's in your head, it doesn't matter
B                C#m
brush your hair, fix your teeth
G#m              E
what you wear is all that matters
B     C#m
just another stage
G#m               E
pageant, the pain away
B               C#m
this time i'm gonna take the crown
G#m            E
without falling down, down


CHORUS:
B      C#m      G#m                   E
pretty hurts we shine the light on whatever's worst
B          C#m                 G#m      E
perfection is the disease of a nation pretty hurts, pretty hurts
B       C#m     G#m                    E
pretty hurts we shine the light on whatever's worst
B                    C#m                          G#m
trying to fix something but you can't fix what you can't see,
E
it's the soul that need the surgery


 B            C#m
blonder hair, flat chest
G#m     E
TV says bigger is better
 B            C#m
south beach, sugar free
G#m         E
vogue said thinner is better
 B       C#m
just another stage
 G#m        E
pageant, the pain away
 B              C#m
this time i'm gonna take the crown
G#m            E
without falling down, down


CHORUS:
B      C#m      G#m                   E
pretty hurts we shine the light on whatever's worst
B          C#m                 G#m      E
perfection is the disease of a nation pretty hurts, pretty hurts
B       C#m     G#m                    E
pretty hurts we shine the light on whatever's worst
B                    C#m                          G#m
trying to fix something but you can't fix what you can't see,
E
it's the soul that need the surgery

C#m
ain't got no doctor or therapy that can take the pain away
G#m
the pain's inside and nobody frees you from your body
E
It's the soul, it's the soul that needs surgery
C#m
It's my soul that needs surgery
C#m
Plastic smiles and denial can only take you so far
G#m
And you break when the paper sign leaves you in the dark
E                                                          E
You left a shattered mirror and the shards of a beautiful girl


CHORUS:
B      C#m      G#m                   E
pretty hurts we shine the light on whatever's worst
B          C#m                 G#m      E
perfection is the disease of a nation pretty hurts, pretty hurts
B       C#m     G#m                    E
pretty hurts we shine the light on whatever's worst
B                    C#m                          G#m
trying to fix something but you can't fix what you can't see,
E
it's the soul that need the surgery

               B                C#m
When you'r alone all by yourself
            G#m             E
And you're lying in your bed
                             B     C#m
Reflection stares right into you
                       G#m   E
Are you happy with yourself
                     B      C#m
Stripped away the masquerade
                G#m       E
The illusion has been shed
                      B    C#m
Are you happy with yourself
                     G#m
Are you happy with yourself
 E
Yes
