[Verse 1]
C
There is a girl
Am
In the front of my class
G
Who I swear I've never seen
F
Do anything but laugh
C
She's tall and she's smart
Am
Beautiful and strong
G
And when someone's down
F
She tries to fix what is wrong
[Chorus]
Dm C G
How does someone so perfect,
C G F
Feel so insecure?
Dm C Am G
As to scar her skin with cuts and burns
C G F
And still want to hurt more...
Dm C G
How does someone so loving,
C G F
Learn to hate her own guts?
Dm C Am G
Drawing a picture on her arms with a blade
C G F
As if her mind isn't dark enough
[Verse 2]
C
There is a girl
Am
In the front of my class
G
Who's eyes are glazed over
F
Like newly cut glass
C
The ghost of a smile
Am
Hints at her face
G
And she laughs as they tell her
F
"Who's on First Base"
[Chorus]
Dm C G
How does someone so perfect,
C G F
Feel so insecure?
Dm C Am G
As to scar her skin with cuts and burns
C G F
And still want to hurt more...
Dm C G
How does someone so loving,
C G F
Learn to hate her own guts?
Dm C Am G
Drawing a picture on her arms with a blade
C G F
As if her mind isn't dark enough
[Verse 3]
C
There is a girl
Am
In the front of my class
G
Who so sad that you find it rare
F
To see her smile or laugh
C
Her friends tells her jokes
Am
Like that one with the guy
G
But all she does is close her eyes
F
And enter her mind
[Chorus]
Dm C G
How does someone so perfect,
C G F
Feel so insecure?
Dm C Am G
As to scar her skin with cuts and burns
C G F
And still want to hurt more...
Dm C G
How does someone so loving,
C G F
Learn to hate her own guts?
Dm C Am G
Drawing a picture on her arms with a blade
C G F
As if her mind isn't dark enough
C
For her imperfections...
[Verse 4]
C
There is a girl
Am
In the front of my class
G
Who yesterday took
F
The breath that was her last...
C
She wrote a few notes:
Am
"I'm sorry I didn't say,
G
But my mind was messed up,
F
You couldn't save me anyway...
G Am
And to the girl in the back of the class,
C Am
Who feels the way I did...
[Chorus]
Dm C G
How does someone so perfect,
C G F
Feel so insecure?
Dm C Am G
As to scar her skin with cuts and burns
C G F
And still want to hurt more"
