Em C7M Am7
They tell her from a young age
C7M
That beauty is likes
Em C7M Am7
And she believes them and tries with every pass
C7M
Her innocence they take and
Em C7M
She starts to wear makeup
Am7 C7M
And wear clothes she thinks they'll like
Em C7M
But nobody told her
Am7 C7M
She had a pretty great person inside
Am7 C7M
No one said "you're capable and loving"
Am7 C7M
"You're kind and you're smart"
Am7 C7M
"You got passion in your eyes and beauty in your smile"
Am7 C7M
"And you are a work of art"
G
It took me 21 years to see it this clear
C7M
Their story's wrong and it's not worth the tears
Em D C7M
I am worth something
D
And I'm done acting
G
And how many times did I never love
C7M
The person in the mirror, but that's who I was
Em D C7M
I am so much more
D Em D C7M Em D C7M
And I finally surrendered the war
Em C7M
She finally gets to high school
Am7 C7M
But she doesn't look like they do
Em C7M
She's not outgoing
Am7 C7M
She writes these songs alone in her room and
Em C7M
She finally gets to college
Am7 C7M
And thinks boys will be so different there, but
Em C7M Am7 C7M
She's disappointed by the way they talk and stare
Am7 C7M
Pretty soon, she hardly eats at all
Am7 C7M Am7
She's sick every day, puking in the bathroom stall
C7M
And she wants to get better
Am7 C7M
'Cause she knows she's not who she sees in the mirror

And I finally surrendered the war
Am7
It all got too heavy
Em
And I wasn't healthy
G
I was weak to the bones too
D
I couldn't do this no more
Am7
And I thought about life
Em
I gave to everyone else
G
And I'm still trying to convince myself
D
I deserve love as well
