Am C F E


[Verse 1]
Am           C 
Badly beaten self
 esteem 
F          
has got me 
   E
needing you
Am       C   
Call you daily 
just
 to bath 
F            E
Am          C    
Lately I\'ve been 
feeling 
   F       
maybe you\'ve 
found 
E
someone new
Am         C  
Like a dog I\'m 
dragged 
 F         
along your 
    E
loveless leash
Am        C  
Guess I\'m good
 enough to 
F   
be the one you 
E              
call on lonely 
Am
nights
       C    
But as soon as 
someone 
F   
better comes you 
E              Am
push me to the side
        C          
Say you love me to 
F    
spit 
            E
right in my face
    Am       C
But whose to blame, 
I\'m the one that 
sits and waits

[Chorus]
         Am   
\'Cause I love 
    F    
you like 
         C
I wish I love 
myself
Am         F      
Trust is a word I

won\'t use
    Am         F  
You left me on read
 just to 
C
toy with my head
              Am     
And still you call me

abused


[Verse 2]
Am      C    
Pick me up to
 pull 
F 
you out of 
    E
any hole you\'re
 in
Am     C  
Cry to me, 
     F
apologize and 
            E
lie through tears
Am       C     
A self respecting
 soul 
      F    ay 
     E
from hopelessness
Am      
But hope is 
C      
somethin\' 
       F
I hold onto 
     E
more than fear
Am     C  
I fear losing you 
but 
F  
really you\'ve been
 E              Am
 lost before we met
            C   
And I would cut it 
off if 
F  
I could find the 
E                Am
will to block ya texts
         C         
Leave me please 
  F  
I can\'t 
            E
be dragged along
    Am     C     
But Friday nights
 I\'ll 
   F          
be sitting by 
    E
the phone

[Chorus]
         Am       
\'Cause I love you 
F             
like I wish I 
C
love myself
Am         F      
Trust is a word I 
C
won\'t use
    Am         F  
You left me on read 
just to 
C
toy with my head
              Am    
And still you call 
        F      C   
me when you\'ve been 
       Am F C   Am F C
abused


[Chorus]
         Am   
\'Cause I love you 
F  
like I wish I

Am         F      
Trust is a word I 
C
won\'t use
    Am    
You left me on 
F      
read just to

toy with my head
And still you

you\'ve been abused
         Am  
\'Cause I love you
 F     
 like I wish I 
C
love myself (Love 
myself)
Am         F    
Trust is a word 
  C
I won\'t
 use (I won\'t use)

[Verse]
        Am7   
Her old flower 
tattoos are 
 C          G
ragged and worn
   Am7   
Her T-shirt and 
sneakers are 
 C            G
tattered and torn
          Am7      
She could make 
a few
 dollars through 
 C        G
peddling porn
  Fmaj7
A forgotten girl
 who\'s
 living next door
 F       Am7  
He\'s the boy on 
the
 sidewalk you\'re 
 C          G
stepping around
  Am7    
A teaspoon and
 tin foil are 
 C           
spread on the
  G
 ground
 Am7        
Needless to say,
 he\'ll 
    C         G
forget for a while
        Fmaj7
But the pain will
 be
 worse next time 
around

Found solace and 
substance in 
 C           G
rooms dimly lit
   Am7       
No one to look 
up to and 
 C            G
too young to get
          F     
That the bed that
 she\'s made
 will be stained
 with 
    F  Am Am F
regret
