Em | Cmaj7 | Amin7 | Cmaj7 (last chord sustain)
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
Em            Cmaj7            Amin7
They tell her from a young age
            Cmaj7
That beauty is likes
Em               Cmaj7                     Amin7
And she believes them and tries with every pass
              Cmaj7
Her innocence they take and
Em                 Cmaj7
She starts to wear makeup
         Amin7                      Cmaj7
And wear clothes she thinks they'll like
    Em     Cmaj7
But nobody told her
          Amin7               Cmaj7
She had a pretty great person inside
 
Amin7                           Cmaj7
No one said "you're capable and loving"
Amin7                   Cmaj7
"You're kind and you're smart"
Amin7                             Cmaj7
"You got passion in your eyes and beauty in your smile"
Amin7                  Cmaj7
"And you are a work of art"
 
 
[Chorus]
           G
It took me 21 years to see it this clear
Cmaj7
Their story's wrong and it's not worth the tears
Em         D         Cmaj7
I am worth something
                 D
And I'm done acting
    G
And how many times did I never love
Cmaj7
The person in the mirror, but that's who I was
Em      D    Cmaj7
I am so much more
          D               Em     D  Cmaj7 Em D Cmaj7
And I finally surrendered the war
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
Em               Cmaj7
She finally gets to high school
Amin7                     Cmaj7
But she doesn't look like they do
Em        Cmaj7
She's not outgoing
           Amin7                    Cmaj7
She writes these songs alone in her room and
Em                  Cmaj7
She finally gets to college
           Amin7                     Cmaj7
And thinks boys will be so different there, but
Em                Cmaj7   Amin7             Cmaj7
She's disappointed by the way they talk and stare
Amin7                           Cmaj7
Pretty soon, she hardly eats at all
      Amin7           Cmaj7                  Amin7
She's sick every day, puking in the bathroom stall
                     Cmaj7
And she wants to get better
           Amin7                  Cmaj7
'Cause she knows she's not who she sees in the mirror
 
 
[Chorus]
 
           G
It took me 21 years to see it this clear
Cmaj7
Their story's wrong and it's not worth the tears
Em         D         Cmaj7
I am worth something
             D
And I'm done acting
    G
And how many times did I never love
Cmaj7
The person in the mirror, but that's who I was
Em      D    Cmaj7
I am so much more
Em  D Cmaj7            Em  D  Cmaj7 Em D Cmaj7
And I finally surrendered the war
 
 
[Bridge]
               Amin7
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
              Amin7
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
 
 
[Chorus]
           G
It took me 21 years to see it this clear
Cmaj7
Their story's wrong and it's not worth the tears
Em         D         Cmaj7
I am worth something
             D
And I'm done acting
    G
And how many times did I never love
Cmaj7
The person in the mirror, but that's who I was
Em      D    Cmaj7
I am so much more
      Em  D Cmaj7            Em  D  Cmaj7 Em D Cmaj7 Em D Cmaj7 Em D Cmaj7
And I finally surrendered the war
