Intro:

F E C   (x2)


♫ Verse 1:
                      F   E  C
You called the other day
I stayed away
                     F     E    C
I left your shit on read, four times today
                   F             E         C
And it felt like bliss, used to miss your kiss
                               F
Now I'm hop-skip jumpin' over narcissists
         E                    C
Throwing all your stuff into the abyss
                                     F
Now the role is reversed
I told you I'ma switch
         E
How you like my spit?
           C
That's for all the pits that you left me in
          F                             E          C
See, the words in my head they're from goddesses, goddesses, on god

Pre-Chorus:
F                 E              C                                F
No
I never knew what it meant, what it meant to be content with you
           E            C                                      F
Everything I expressed
I professed, it never quite made it through
           E              C                                   F
Said it's all in my head, all in my head whenever I spoke my truth
       E                  C                            N.C.
No
I won't defend you to all my friends, this time
I refuse

♫ Chorus:
        F       E      C
If you bite my hand again
              F         E              C
I will never feed you, you can call me evil
                F            E             C
Take it to the grave if you wanna play pretend
                F        E                C
I won't be mistreated, please call me conceited
                 F           E        C
Took me way too long to put this to bed
                F       E                  C
Lovin' you was lethal, guess that makes me evil, evil

♫ Post-Chorus:
F     E    C
Evil, evil

♫ Verse 2:
                   F      E    C
Remember when you smiled right to my face?
                  F    E  C
As all my little tears of oxalate
              F       E         C
They made a shape, revealed a snake
                               F
Now I'm stop-drop rollin' over all your jokes
       E                               C
Every time you tell a lie I'm prayin' that you choke
                                        F
Should've listened to the signs and the horoscopes
          E                    C
Hope you never cope, hope you slip on soap
                                    F
Crack your head like an egg, wanna see the yolk
          E        C
You were such a hoax


♫ Pre-Chorus:
F                 E              C                                F
No
I never knew what it meant, what it meant to be content with you
           E            C                                      F
Everything I expressed
I professed, it never quite made it through
           E              C                                   F
Said it's all in my head, all in my head whenever I spoke my truth
       E                  C                            N.C.
No
