Hole – Nobody’s Daughter – Letter to God
Tuning: Half step down (Eb, Ab, Db, Gb, Bb, Eb)
Opening and Verses:
Am G
Dear god I'm writing this letter to you
Dm
Cause I don't have a clue
Am
Can you help me?
I'm sitting here
Simply trying to figure out
What my life's all about it
Can you tell me?
Choruses:
C Bb
I never wanted to be
F
The person you see
C
Won't you tell me who I am?
I always wanted to die
But you kept me alive
Please tell me who I am
Same as the first verse:
I lie awake conducting this symphony,
That you have gifted to me,
but I don't ever sleep
Don't get mad
Cause I get weak inside
And I start to fall apart
Cause I feel nothing
Same as first Chorus:
I never wanted to be
Some kind of comic relief
Please show me who I am
I been tortured and scorned
Since the day that I was born
But I don't know who I am
Bridge:
Bb F C
And I thank you man for everything
Bb C
Sorry I'm so frightened about all of this
C
Oh I wish I could give you more
Bb F C
and all the lights are shining down on me
Ab F C
And I feel intimidated by it all
Bb F C
Same as other Chours until the end:
I never wanted to be
The person you see but thank you
Oh god please tell me now
Are you disappointed or are you proud
I've been also everything
I'm so sorry I'm so weak
And I turned into a freak
But I don't know anything
I've lost all self-esteem
By burying everything
And I feel nothing
Oh god please tell me now
God please tell me now
Cause I feel nothing
Oh dear god I'm writing this letter to you
Cause I'm coming undone
Please help me
