 G   Cx4
[Verse]
GTell me you never waCnna see me again
GAnd then keep shoCwing up at my house
GTell me you'll never Cbe in love again
Now you're wGalking round with somCeone else
GIf I was hungry then you were sCtarving
And he was sGo sick but you were dCying
If I was huGngry then you were stCarving
Now tell the dGead man that you're the oCne dying
G C G C
GTreat them like queens until they disagreeC  
And Gnever reflect to think 'wait, maybe the problem was me'
GNah, man, just keep smoking wCeed
Tell this Gone 'yeah they were all crazy, unClike you bGaby.'
G C G C
GTell me that no one knows mCe like you do
GAnd tell me that my friCends don't tell me the truth
GAnd maybe I'll cCome crawling back to yGou
Like, that was your plan, rCight?
GYou worked so hard but we were 'jCust lucky'
To ride those Gcoat tails into infiCnity
And aGll my success has got noCthing to do with me
Yeah, tell me agGain how there just aren't that many gCirls in the mGusic scene
CIt's another all-male tour preaching equGality
CIt's another straight cis mGan who knows more about this than me
CIt's another man telling us we're mGissing a frequency, shoCw 'em Kelly
GIt's another man telling us we cCan't fill up the room
GIt's another man telling us to boCok a smaller venue
G'Nah, hey, cmon girls we're only tChinking about you'
GWell, see how far we've cCome not listening Gto yCouEm  
G"Yeah, just get a female opCener, that'll fill the qGuota."C
