Verse Dm F
She's younger than she looks
But she’s old enough to know
Am
The nature of this world
Dm7
And so the story goes
A#
She's dressed up like her friends
F
But she's prettier than them
C
The whole room turns to look
Dm
Like something from a book
[Refrain]
A#
Ooh-ooh
[Verse 2]
Dm A#
The speech becomes a slur
F
She’s talking to some creep
Am
Uncomfortable as hell
Dm
But too polite to leave
A#
The lines begin to blur
F
There's something in her drink
Am
She stumbles to his car
A#
And no one says a thing
[Pre-Chorus]
F Cm Gm
Oh my love, you're so young
[Chorus]
Dm A#
Some might say she's able to get back her normal life
F Am
When you love someone unwillingly, you leave yourself behind
Dm A#
You're hiding in the bathroom and you pray for better times
F Am A
Say you're gonna leave him there and find a better life
[Verse 3]
Dm A#maj7
Down the rabbit hole
F
She wakes up in his bed
Am
Confused about her heart
Dm
And bruised between her legs
A#maj7
But she's too afraid to leave
F
Or bite the hand that hits
A
She tells herself it's love
A#
Then plays along with it
[Pre-Chorus]
F Cm Gm
Oh my friend, you’re still young
[Chorus]
Dm A#
Some might say she’s able to get back her normal life
F Am
When you love someone unwillingly, you leave yourself behind
Dm A#
You're hiding in the bathroom and you pray for better times
F Am A
Say you’re gonna leave him there and find a better life
[Post-Chorus]
A# F
Oh, oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh-oh)
Cm Gm
Run (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
A# F
Oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh)
[Bridge]
Dm A#
Abused at 17
F
Some unrelenting creep
NC
The father of her son
[Chorus]
Dm A#
Some might say she's able to get back her normal life
F Am
When you love someone unwillingly, you leave yourself behind
Dm A#
You're hiding in the bathroom and you pray for better times
F Am A
Say you're gonna leave him there and find a better life
[Outro]
Dm
(Oh, oh-oh-oh)
A#
Ah, find a better life
Dm
Oh, find a better life
A
