Tune to Drop D
Capo on 3


EM                  D
I am nothing without pretend
      AM
I know my faults
      C
Can't live with them

EM                  D
I am nothing without a man
      AM
I know my thoughts
      C
But I can't hide them

EM                  D
I still keep my baby teeth
      AM                  C
In the bedside table with my jewelry

EM                  D
You still sleep in the bed with me,
  AM                  C
My jewelry, and my baby teeth


I don't need another friend
When most of them
I can barely keep up with
I'm perfectly able to hold my own hand,
but I still can't kiss my own neck

I wanted to give you everything
but I still stand in awe of superficial things
I wanted to love you like my mother's mother's mothers did
