Intro
F#
[Verse 1]
F#
I had accepted my fate
F#
I had it all set in stone
F#
I was meant to fade away, in the dark and all alone
F#
But now you’ve got me feeling selfish
F#
How could I say no
[Bridge 1]
F#
When you’re so soft
F#
And you’re so warm
F#
But roses always have their thorns
F#
I feel my soul begin to thaw
F#
And I can’t help but wish I never saw you
[Chorus]
F#
Why do I have to be so selfish
F#
Oh
F#
Selfish
[Verse 2]
F#
How we met, beneath the tree
F#
Keeps me tossing in my sleep
F#
Love is scarier than greed
[Bridge 2]
F#
But you’re so bright
F#
And you’re so pure
F#
So tell me what am I here for?
[Bridge 3]
F#
But my cruel hеart
F#
It won’t say no
F#
I have to choose between brеaking your heart
F#
And killing my own
[Bridge 4]
F#
And you’re so soft,
F#
And you’re so warm
F#
But roses always have their thorns
F#
I feel my soul
F#
Begin to thaw
F#
And I can’t help but wish I never saw you
[Chorus]
F#
Why do I have to be so selfish
F#
Oooooooh
Selfish
[Outro]
F#
How stupid can I be
F#
To think it’d be so easy to let go
F#
Of the body that binds me
F#
So I have to say goodbye
F#
It’s decided I don’t have the option to be selfish
