Deserve Me

B

N.C.
It happens again
F#

[Chorus]
                                         B
A cross to my shoulder, a jab to my chest
                              F#
A kick to my ego, a lack of defense
                                       B
As though in slow motion, you wind up again
                        N.C.                         F#
When did this become so normal and do I deserve this?


[Verse 1]

                                           B
When I met you in high school, I felt overwhelmed
                                             F#
At getting attention for the first time. It sounds
                                          B
Like a pitiful cliché, a lame kiss-and-tell
                                                   F#
But the story takes twists and I can tell it myself
                                         B
I always adored you, the way you'd stand up
                                            F#
For yourself and for me, but I couldn't handle
                                          B
The tempers and tantrums you' throw at random
                                                     F#
Told myself it was my fault, 'cause I couldn't man up
                                     B7
That was the last time, I said and I said
                    F#
And it happens again

[Chorus]
                                         B
A cross to my shoulder, a jab to my chest
                                   F#
A kick to my ego, a lack of defense
                                           B
As though in slow motion, you wind up again
                                                     F#
When did this become so normal and do I deserve this?

[Verse 2]

F#
We laid out in your backyard naming every star we saw
          B
Back when both your hands were gentle and your speaking voice was soft
    F#
You joked that romans made up constellations on the spot
      B                                   N.C.
And I believe that even Grecians beat me at connecting dots
          F#
Cause for every side you showed me, I'd soften or I'd try
   C#
To justify with reasons pleading for you in my mind
  D#m
I only see you sweetly when I see the stars at night
         B                                              F#
Leave it to the only person that could ruin half the sky
                                       B7
I just want to tell her I miss my best friend
                    F#
And it happens again

[Chorus]
                                         B
A cross to my shoulder, a jab to my chest
                                   F#
A kick to my ego, a lack of defense
                                          B
As though in slow motion, you wind up again
                                   F#
When did this become so normal...?
                                        C#
A cross to my shoulder, a jab to my chest
                               D#m
A kick to my ego, a lack of defense
                                          B
As though in slow motion, you wind up again

What do I deserve...?

[Verse 3]

F#
I'm finally ready to admit this wasn't my fault
C#
To learn that love does not exist when I feel this small
D#m
And I can count on one hand the times you made me feel worthy
B                                                   F#
I can count on one finger to say "You Don't Deserve Me."
            C#
You don't deserve me.
            D#m
You don't deserve me.

F#                                      B7
I just want to tell her I miss my best friend.
