Dm7 G7 2x
[Verse 1]
Dm7 G7
I used to be here all alone
Dm7 G7
Now I have company
Bb F
But I can't stand a word you say
Gm7 C
It holds no consequence to me
Dm7 G7
Now you found me, skin and bone
Dm7 G7
I used to have teeth
Bb F
I found the strength to run away
Gm7 C
But this freedom wasn't my escape
[Chorus]
Bb F
'Cause I just wanna be adored
Dm G7
I don't wanna be ignored
Bb F
My time's a blessing, not a curse
Gm7 C
Your patience only makes it worse
[Verse 2]
Dm7 G7
You left me writhing on the floor
Dm7 G7
Dripping with disease
Bb F
I found the time to suffocate
Gm7 C
The reason for this new mistake
[Chorus]
Bb F
'Cause I just wanna be adored
Dm G7
I don't wanna be ignored
Bb F
My time's a blessing, not a curse
Gm7 C
Your patience only makes it worse
[Bridge]
Gm7 Bb
'Cause you want something more
Gm7 C
Than I can deliver
Gm7 Bb
I have praise for the familiar
F C
But watching it slip away is the hardest part
[Chorus]
Bb F
'Cause I just wanna be adored
Dm G7
I don't wanna be ignored
Bb F
My time's a blessing, not a curse
Gm7 C
Your patience only makes it worse
C
It only makes it worse
