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
