Em                  D
Look at my mouth, a thin painted line

Cadd9              D
Look at my limbs, bent up and bundled in twine

Em  D    Am    D
Forever, ever mine

Em               D
Form of a tree, shape of a child

  Cadd9              D
I wish I could cry, stuck in a permanent smile

Em  D    Am    D
Forever, ever mine

[Chorus]

Cadd9      D                  G
I know you must have loved me sometime

    Em7            Cadd9
But now I'm just a toy

            D                 Em911
I know you must have loved me sometime

[Verse 2] First there was me, nothing but time Till he came along, you told me you'd always be mine Forever, ever mine Look at his face, somewhat like mine But look at his nose, you can always be sure that he's lying Forever, ever mine [Chorus] [Bridge]

    Gm7            D2  Gm6/Bb  Cadd2  Gm
But now I'm just a toy who     needs  you

  Dadd9/F#  Gm6  Cadd9  G/B
A boy       to   be     who

Cadd9  G/B  Gm/Bb
Needs  to   be

[Verse 3] Better than him, worthy of you Given the chance that he had, I know what I'd do Forever, ever mine I call him liar, you call him son If I could move, I'd set him on fire and I'd run Forever [Chorus] I know you must have loved me sometime But now I'm just a toy I know you must have loved me sometime

    Gm7            A7sus  A7
But now I'm just a toy
