Pretty Hurts

C Dm F G


[Verse]

 C                  Dm
Mama said, you're a pretty girl
 Am                      F
What's in your head, it doesn't 
matter
 C                  Dm
Brush your hair, fix your teeth
 Am                F
What you wear is all that matters
 C      Dm           Am           
Just another stage, pageant the pain
 F
 away
 C               Dm
This time I'm gonna take the crown
Am              F
Without falling down, down


[Chorus]

C         Dm      Am           
Pretty hurts, shine the light on 
F
whatever's worse
C              Dm                
Perfection is a disease of a 
    Am                 F
nation, pretty hurts, pretty hurts
C         Dm      Am            
Pretty hurts, shine the light on 
F
whatever's worse
C                     Dm     
Trying to fix something but you 
                           Am
can't fix what you can't see
             F                     
It's the soul that needs the 
          C
surgery

[Bridge]

Dm
Aint no doctor or pill that can take
 the pain away
Am
The pain's inside and nobody frees 
you from your body.
It's the soul, it's the soul that 
           G                    
needs surgery. its the soul that 
             Dm
needs surgery
Dm
Plastic smiles and denial can only 
take you so far
Am
And you break when the fake facade 
leaves you in the dark
F
You left a shattered mirror
                     G
And the shards of a beautiful girl


[Chorus]

C         Dm      Am           
Pretty hurts, shine the light on 
F
whatever's worse
C              Dm                
Perfection is a disease of a 
    Am                 F
nation, pretty hurts, pretty hurts
C         Dm      Am            
Pretty hurts, shine the light on 
F
whatever's worse
C                     Dm     
Trying to fix something but you 
                           Am
can't fix what you can't see
             F                     
It's the soul that needs the
