She is on her own now

E5             A5

This just got real 

B5            F#5              B5                 E5           A5

Her mum is no longer there to make her favourite meal all the dishes and the worries,

                        D5

they will pile and stack

A5                                      E5           A5  A5  E5  A5

She loved the world but it did not love her back

 

 

A5                                      E5                A5

She often wouldn't feel well and her friends said go to bed

  B5              F#5                      B5           E5

They would never understand this was a sickness of the head

                     A5                                                          D5

So she would sit and think for hours and her sadness she'd defer

A5                                      E5          A5  A5  E5  A5

Head intact

 

 
     F#5        D5         A5

She knows what she can't have (she'll only want it more)

      F#5     D5        A5

The journey makes her sad (she'll only start a war)

F#5          D5   B5        A5       G5

She won't understand she's just a girl

E5                                   ( A5 A5 E5 A5 x2)

Expecting too much from the world

 

A5 (single strum )                   E5                    A5

She lost sight of important things and bad things she would crave

             B5              F#5                  B5             E5

But there is not an ounce of good in things that send you to the grave

                      A5                                                             D5

So she would put a pen to paper but no thoughts came out the pen

A5                            E5            A5    A5 E5  A5

She loved the world but it stood her up again
