[Intro]
C Gm Gmaj7 Gmaj7 Csus4 Gm Gmaj7 Gmaj7
 
[Verse 1]
C Gm I’m sorry I didn’t realise
Gmaj7You thought the joke was old
Csus4 Gm I guess the distance between us
Gmaj7Is much greater than the dinner table
C Gm Gmaj7 Everyone in this family is a comedian
Gmaj7Halfway through their stand up routine
Csus4 GmI’m an audience member
Gmaj7Waiting for my cue to join in
 
[Verse 2]
C Gm And tell me what to say to the guy
Gmaj7Who texts me meaning well some nights
Csus4 Gm leading him on
Gmaj7Think I’m just being nice
Gmaj7You accuse me of being that sometimes
 
[Chorus]
Gm Csus4 Gmaj7 I’m afraid of love and not living my life
C Csus4 Gmaj7 I’m a people pleaser pretending not to think twice
C Csus4 Gmaj7 Maybe my need for you is a hand me down
Gm Csus4 Gmaj7 Maybe I’ll never know, never know now
 
[Instrumental]
Csus4 Gm Gmaj7 Gmaj7
 
[Verse 3]
C Gm Gmaj7 I’m sorry I didn’t mean what I implied before
Csus4 Gm You caught me red handed
Gmaj7Taking makeup right out of your drawer
C Gm Gmaj7 I just wanted to look like, look like you a little more
Csus4 Gm Gmaj7 Not that you'd believe that at all
 
[Chorus]
Gm Csus4 Gmaj7 I’m afraid of love and not living my life
C Csus4 Gmaj7 I’m a people pleaser pretending not to think twice
C Csus4 Gmaj7 Maybe my need for you is a hand me down
Gm Csus4 Gmaj7 Maybe I’ll never know, never know now
 
[Bridge]
C Gmaj7 Gm Csus4 Gmaj7Don’t know who I Am anymore, anymore
C Gmaj7 Gm Csus4 Gmaj7I’m scared of the things that I’m dreaming for
C Gmaj7 Gm Csus4 Gmaj7You say it’s called imposter syndrome
C Gmaj7 Gm Csus4 Gmaj7Gotta shake it off before it rots you to the bone
 
[Ending]
Gm Csus4 Gmaj7 I sighed and begged you be honest
C Csus4 Gmaj7You said “well, what else are sisters for?”
C Csus4 Gmaj7As you smiled at me like I was stupid
Gm Csus4 Gmaj7More than just hand me downs that’s for sure
