Intro
Am Em F C 3x
[Verse 1]
Am
I grew up in a small house
Em
Near a cemetery, you could hear them howl
F C
As they lower the ones they love in the ground
[Verse 2]
Am
I pulled out my own baby teeth
Em
The pain never seemed to bother me
F C
I made friends with the kids down the street
[Verse 3]
Am
I better go, it's gettin' late
Em
I've been outside all day
F C
On the walk home work out what I'll say
[Chorus]
Am
And I still lose it every now and then
Em
In an interview or a photoshoot
F C
I could be halfway through a show and it all comes creepin' in
Am
And I've sacrificed all my friends
Em
Birthdays, weddings, everything
F C
And it's heartbreaking but this is my dream
Am
And I did it all without a phone call
Em
Or a Christmas card, you have no heart
F C
This is my way of saying, "Don't start”
[Verse 4]
Am
You should see the shows I play
Em
And hear them sing the words I say
F C
I wonder sometimes if you're in the crowd
[Verse 5]
Am
'Cause I needed help, I needed love
Em
I needed care needed a hug
F C
I needed praise, I needed time with you
[Verse 6]
Am
And it plays on my mind
Em
All the time, all the time
F C
I wanna love you, but I need you to try
[Chorus]
Am
And I still lose it every now and then
Em
In an interview or a photoshoot
F C
I could be halfway through a show and it all comes creepin' in
Am
And I've sacrificed all my friends
Em
Birthdays, weddings, everything
F C
And it's heartbreaking but this is my dream
Am
And I did it all without a phone call
Em
Or a Christmas card, you have no heart
F C
This is my way of saying, "Don't start”
[Finale]
Am
Don't start now, I'm winning
Em
And finally happy
F C
Don't start now, I've done all the years of hard work
Am
Don't start taking over
Em
And asking for favors
F C
Please just don't start now that I'm Amy Shark
