Verse 1:
Cmaj7     G
 I'm not a forgiver
      Em7
I cry every winter
        D/F#
I sleep in your shadow
       Cmaj7
It only gets bigger
          G
I bleed 'cause I'm heavy
      Em
I never was ready
       D/F#
If I'm being honest

I never learned to want this

That he didn't break me
        D/F#
Swear that I'm trying
        Cmaj7
But I hate sex lately
      G
I wanna be gentle
          Em7
My words taste like metal
           D/F#
It's awful when it's over
      Cmaj7
I never got older


Pre-Chorus:
        G
A scared little girl
          Em7
Who still needs her daddy

My hands go down the jeans
          Cmaj7
Of men who treat me badly


Chorus:
          G
It was all I had to offer
           Em7
I'm still somebody's daughter
       D/F#
But you never saw me
       Cmaj7
For anything other
        G
It's coming up Lavender
         Em7
I like the ways I haven't hurt

Blood in the water
           Cmaj7  G  Em7  D/F#
I'm still somebody's daughter


Verse 3:
Cmaj7     G
 I want you to leave
         Em7
And don't take me with you
       D/F#
I keep my bed vacant
      Cmaj7
I call it a house rule
        G
I stare at the center
          Em7
Of my fuck ups and flashbacks
         Cmaj7
Yes, it hurt that bad


Bridge:
Cmaj7    G
 I wanna be radiant

Self preservation
       Cmaj7
My sweet revelation


Chorus:
          G
It was all I had to offer

For anything other

Fuck your remorse, hope it only gets bigger

Bury the gun or I'll never be happy
