Intro
G D Em Em (x2)
[Verse 1]
G D Em Em
The fog in my head, it thickens,
G D Em Em
Nothing is clear anymore.
G D Em Em
But the small girl inside me still searches
G D Em Em
for the man who slipped off his horns.
G D Em Em
Said not all of us are so scary,
G D Em Em
no need to hide under your sheets.
G D Em Em
And so she invited him into the bed
G D Em Em
and felt him rock her to sleep.
G D Em Em
He loved my face to my feet, but
G D Em Em
you keep it under lock and key.
[Chorus]
C G D Em
Will you tell your friends your horns are fake?
C G B
You stitch them to your head.
C G D Em
You can’t grow your own ‘cause you’re the boy
C G B
who feels too much in bed.
C G D Em C G B
*VOCALISE*
[Verse 2]
G D Em Em
The pain in my head, it kills me,
G D Em Em
and I stumble through everyday tasks.
G D Em Em
And the small girl inside me just keeps holding on
G D Em Em
but you’re gone. You’re already back
G D Em Em
to the place where you paint on a permanent scowl,
G D Em Em
where you spit in the eye of pain.
G D Em Em
When they start asking you just how good I was,
G D Em Em
I wonder what you will say…
G D Em Em
will you tell them that I sunk you deep
G D Em Em
or pretend you don’t feel, you don’t break?
[Chorus]
C G D Em
Will you tell your friends your horns are fake?
C G B
You stitch them to your head.
B C Em D Em
You can’t grow your own ‘cause you’re the boy
C G B
who feels too much in bed.
C G D Em C G B
*VOCALISE*
[Bridge]
C G D Em
And I know that you’ll keep crawling back
C G B
to your needle and thread.
C G D Em
‘Cause no one wants to be the boy
C G B
who feels too much in bed
C G D Em C G B
*VOCALISE*
