Post-Chorus
A7+
You need an instant ease
F#m7
From the life where you got plenty
C#m D
Of every hurt and heartbreak
C#m D
You just take it all to the face
A7+
I know that you want to cry
F#m7
But it's much more to life than dyin'
C#m D
Over your past mistakes
C#m D
And people who threw dirt on your name
Verse 1:
A7+
Since ten, I've been feelin' lonely
F#m7
Had friends but they was pickin' on me
C#m D
Always thinkin', 'Why my lips so big?'
C#m D
Was I too dark? Can they sense my fears?
A7+
These gay thoughts would always haunt me
F#m7
I prayed God would take it from me
C#m D
It's hard for you when you're fightin'
C#m D
And nobody knows it when you're silent
A7+
I'd be by the phone
F#m7
Stanning Nicki mornin' into dawn
C#m D
Only place I felt like I belonged
C#m D
Strangers make you feel so loved, you know?
A7+
And I'm happy by the way
F#m7
That I made that jump, that leap of faith
C#m D
I'm happy that it all worked out for me
C#m D
I'ma make my fans so proud of me (Oh)
Post-Chorus
A7+
You need an instant ease
F#m7
From the life where you got plenty
C#m D
Of every hurt and heartbreak
C#m D
You just take it all to the face
A7+
I know that you want to cry
F#m7
But it's much more to life than dyin'
C#m D
Over your past mistakes
C#m D
And people who threw dirt on your name
