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