[Verse 1]
Am                                              C
Blood red stains on the floor of the powder room

Am                                        C
Cracks in the mirror starting to show too soon

Dm                      Am       C
Mascara lines streaming down her face

    Am                               C
Her cocaine lipstick smile is such a waste
[Pre-Chorus]
C        G
On the floor, she's almost dead

                    F
She remembers the words that her father once said
[Chorus]
                     Am                     F
"No, you don't need make up to cover your face, love

                  C
You're beautiful now, within and without, be good to yourself

                 G
You're doing me proud

                    Am                    F
No, You don't need make up to cover your scars up

                 C
You're beautiful now, within and without, and never forget

                 G
You're doing me proud"
[Verse 2]
Am                          F         C
She's locked up in a prison made of thoughts

Am                      F          C
She puts no worth on anything she's got

             Am                      F          C
'Cause no one believes that she was born this way

    Am                           F     C
And heaven knows that God don't make mistakes, no
[Pre-Chorus 2]
G
On the floor, he's almost dead

                   F
He remembers the words that his father once said
[Chorus]
                     Am                     F
"No, you don't need make up to cover your face, love

                  C
You're beautiful now, within and without, be good to yourself

                 G
You're doing me proud

                    Am                    F
No, You don't need make up to cover your scars up

                 C
You're beautiful now, within and without, and never forget

                 G       F   C G
You're doing me proud"
[Bridge]
  Am C F
He's beating himself up before he's even leaving the house

                      C                               G
He's driving himself nuts, in case we're finding him out
Yeah, he knows what society thinks
          Am                         C
When they see this man dressing so pretty in pink

              F
He's always loved to play dress up
But daddy's got something to say
                         C                  G
"You're not a screw up, boy, no more hiding away"
But she's a queen in a skin of a king
                                    C
Never happy who she is, that's the saddest fucking thing, yeah
[Chorus]
 G                    Am                     F
"No, you don't need make up to cover your face, love

                  C
You're beautiful now, within and without, be good to yourself

                 G
You're doing me proud

                    Am                    F
No, You don't need make up to cover your scars up

                 C
You're beautiful now, within and without, and never forget

                 G
You're doing me proud"
[Outro]
Am
Oh, find someone who smears your lipstick

F
And keeps your mascara dry

C
If somebody's got you crying

     G
Make sure that they're tears of joy

Am                       F   C
No, you don't need make up
