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