Philosopher

Em
(aahs)

[Verse 1]
Em
  When I grow up, I think that I could be an actress
                    Em
I'll let the camera find the truth in these little eyes
Em
  And I could feel what it was like to be electric
                           Em
And let the people hear me scream and shout with this little mouth


[Pre-Chorus]
C                     D       Em
And if I let all my demons out  how you would love it
C                          D            Em      D
And I would let the makeup run all down my face


[Chorus 1]
          C
I'm a philosopher
                      Em
I try to put it all behind me
          C
I'm a philosopher
                       Em
I gotta try to keep it down
          C
I'm a philosopher
Continues after the ad
         Am           Em
No, I'll never let it find me
          C
I'm a philosopher
          Am         Em
Gotta control it somehow


[Verse 2]
Em                                                  C
  And when they're finished with me I could be your lover
                              Em                C            D
And you could try to find the blush of youth in these cheeks
Em                                      C
  Try to forget what it was like to be electric
                       Em                C          D
And to wink at all the boys at home with these eyes


[Chorus 2]
          C       D
I'm a philosopher
        Em       D
With these hands
          C       D
I'm a philosopher
         Em     D
With this mouth
          C
I'm a philosopher
D     Em    D
I will rise
          C
I'm a philosopher
D      Em
Let me out

[Bridge]
    D                   G D C
I'm getting all excited now
                           C G D
But you know when this is over
                             G   D  C
I'll be looking for a way to let it go
C                         G D C
  I'm getting all excited now
                    C G D
But it's only for a moment
                       G    D     C
No you can't hurt what you can't hold
