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