Chords

[Intro] F# A#m B C# [Verse 1]
   F#
I cried on your shoulder right there in the kitchen

     A#m
Our friends in the next room, so close they could listen

    B
And I don't know why

   C#
I laugh when I cry

 F#
I'm not the girl that you thought you were getting

    A#m
I'm way more complex, yeah I got them sharp edges

     B
I'm solid as ice, oh

       C#
But I break all the time
[Pre-Chorus 1]
                           F#
But if I were a different girl

                             A#m
It'd be simpler, that's for sure

                             B
Wouldn't it be nice to be a cool wind, cool wind?
Always keep it breezy
 C#
Ooh yeah, ooh yeah, but I am not that easy
[Chorus]
F#
No, I am who I am

   A#m
And I am a lot to handle

B
You do the best you can

    C#
But I am an uphill battle
F# C# [Verse 2]
           F#
You say I act like it's my job to get so emotional

A#m
Hell it's my business to get so emotional

B
About to lose it

      C#
Just below the surface, ooh yeah

F#
Walking around with a knot in my stomach

A#m
Got you so high but we're ready to plummet

       B
Going down, going down, going down, going down

C#
Oh no
[Pre-Chorus 1]
                           F#
But if I were a different girl

                             A#m
It'd be simpler, that's for sure

                             B
Wouldn't it be nice to be a cool wind, cool wind?
Always keep it breezy
 C#
Ooh yeah, ooh yeah, but I am not that easy
[Chorus]
F#
No, I am who I am

   A#m
And I am a lot to handle

B
You do the best you can

    C#
But I am an uphill battle

F#
I'll be your solid ground

   A#m
And I'll be your biggest gamble

B                            C#
You do the best you can, I know
[Bridge]
                       B
So baby baby keep on climbing

                              A#m
I'll wrap my arms around you tight

                              B
I'll take you to the highest mountain

                             C#
I'll take you to the top tonight
[Pre-Chorus 2]
                       B
If I were a different girl

                                   F#
Yeah, it'd be simpler, that's for sure

                                   B
But you know you wouldn't get the sparks from the clash, the high from the crash

     C#
The curse and the kiss, they will make this thing last
[Chorus]
F#
No, I am who I am

   A#m
And I am a lot to handle

B
You do the best you can

    C#               D
But I am an uphill battle

D#m
I'll be your solid ground

   A#m
And I'll be your biggest gamble

B
You do the best you can

   C#                   F#    A#m
But I am an uphill battle, ooh

                B   C#
An uphill battle

           F#          A#m B C# F#
An uphill battle, ooh
