[Intro]
Cmaj7 G Em7 Cmaj7 G
[Verse]
Cmaj7 G Sharpener's callin' me again Cmaj7 Tryin' to turn it into some G Em7 Thing I can draw into my skin Cmaj7 G Make it a picture that I'll love Cmaj7 Instead of something that I wish G Em7 I could get in the bath and scrub right off
[Chorus]
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 F C Why am I ashamed to look the way I do? G Fmaj7 F C All 'cause an escape to me was just a sharpener to you
[Instrumental]
G Fmaj7 F C x2
[Verse]
Cmaj7 G Big old pill to inch around Cmaj7 There's no copping out this time G Em7 Tried my best to get it down Cmaj7 G Sometimes seems like I'm still young Cmaj7 and lookin' at the boy across the sink G Em7 Thinking, "What the hell have you just done?"
[Chorus]
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 F C Why am I ashamed to look the way I do? G Fmaj7 F C All 'cause an escape to me was just a sharpener to you G Fmaj7 F C Why am I afraid of things I let inside my room? G Fmaj7 F C* Just wanted some company, broke the sharpener in two
[Instrumental]
G* Fmaj7* F* C* x2

G* You say, why am I like this? Fmaj7* F* C* You mean, why am I stupid? G* Fmaj7* F* Guess you know you're not tryin' to fix it C* G* You mean, why am I like this? Fmaj7* F* C* You say, why am I selfish? yeah G* Fmaj7* F* C* Guess you know, honey, you can't help it
