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