D                              A
Hey, don't write yourself off yet.
                            G           A               D
It's only in your head you feel left out or looked down on.
               D                        A
Just try your best, try everything you can.
                               G                  A               D
And don't you worry what they tell themselves       when you're away.


CHORUS
         D                                                 A
It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle of the ride everything,
                G                                         D
Everything will be just fine, everything, everything will be all right (all right)


D                              A
Hey, you know they're all the same.
                             G           A              D
You know you're doing better on your own, so don't buy in.
            D                            A
Live right now.       Yeah, just be yourself.
                            G             A             D
It doesn't matter if it's good enough       for someone else.

(Repeat CHORUS)

D                              A
Hey, don't write yourself off yet.
                            G              A                D
It's only in your head you feel left out      or looked down on.
              D                       A
Just do your best, do everything you can.
                              G               A          D
And don't you worry what the bitter hearts     are gonna say.

(Repeat CHORUS x2)

END on D

I recommend you use these power chords, not the secondary chords.

D ? x577xxx (or D2 ? xx0230) A ? 5776xx (or A2 ? 
G ? 3554xx (or 3200xx)

For the D2 and A2, mute the low E sting with your index finger.
