[Intro]

[Verse 1]
C                              F
I been making a list of words that hurt
  C                          F
'Cause it reminds me of what they're worth
 C                                       F
I can always delete them, I can always ignore
  C                                     F
'Cause they're just words, they can't hurt me
 
It's not what they're for
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
                                 G      F
But I heard that you've been writing some more
                         C
And I don't really know what for
         Am               G          F                      Em
And apparently they're supposed to hurt me way down deep inside
             D
But they don't
                      F    G
Well at least you tried
 
 
[Chorus]
G                       C
So don't you call me a BTEC Lily Allen
          F
Say I've got no Goddamn talent
          G
That my songs should only be played in a pub
         F
And that my biggest fan is my mum
      C
Well I quite like Lily Allen
       F
And I don't believe in God-given talent
      G
The pub is the best place that I'll ever play
      F
And my mum's support is what I need anyway
 
 
[Refrain]
C
Do do do do do
F
Do do do do do
G           F           C
Do do do do do do do do do
 
 
[Verse 2]
C                                F
And those aren't even the worst of it
   C                                    F
Apparently I've got where I've got because I've got tits
   C                                                F
And someone once exclaimed while we were writing a song
 C                                   F
"Oh God, Jesus, Lord, this is so basic, where did I go wrong?"
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
   Am                           G
Well I heard that you've been writing some more
F                         G
And I don't really know what for
       Am              G            F
  Em
And apparently they're supposed to hurt me way down deep inside
D
But they don't
              F      G
Well at least you tried
 
 
[Chorus]
G                      C
So don't you call me a BTEC Lily Allen
          F
Say I've got no Goddamn talent
      G
That my songs should only be played in the pub
          F
And that my biggest fan is my mum
         C
Well I quite like Lily Allen
       F
And I don't believe in God-given talent
      G
And I've worked really hard to be where I am
            F5                                          C
And you're missing out if your mum ain't your biggest fan
 
 
[Refrain]
C            F
Do do do do do
            G
Do do do do do
            F
Do do do do do do do do do
 
 
[Bridge]
       C
I'm not very creative
 
My vibe is over done
F
The look just isn't working
 
Stop talking about the pub
G
Your pitching isn't perfect
 
Your glasses are cliche
F
Good luck on your project
 
I'm sure they'll be a place for you one day
 
 
[Verse 3]
     C
Well I don't give a shit
 
And you're bloody full of it
     F
And I will sing the way I want
 
And I'll write songs that will be hits
      G
And I love my local pub
 
And Lily Allen is pretty great
   F
So this words mean nothing to me
 
And if I fall again I will
C
Get back on the stage
            F
And I will sing my favourite song
G
BTEC Lily Allen
          F               G        C
And I'll prove all these bastards wrong
