Eldest Daughter

[Intro] Am7  C7M  G

[First Part]

Am7
    Everybody’s so punk on the 
internet
C7M
    Everyone’s unbothered till 
they’re not
G
  Every joke’s just trolling and 
memes

Sad as it seems, apathy is hot

Am7
    Everybody’s cutthroat in the 
comments
C7M
    Every single hot take is cold as
 ice
G
  When you found me, I said I was 
busy

That was a lie

Am7
I have been afflicted
      C7M
By a terminal uniqueness
            G
I’ve been dying

Just from trying to seem cool

[Chorus]

    Am7
But I’m not a bad bitch
      C2
And this isn’t savage
         G
But I’m never gonna let you down

I’m never gonna leave you out

 Am7
So many traitors
  C2
Smooth operators
         G
But I’m never gonna break that vow

I’m never gonna leave you
 Am7  C2   G
Now, now, now

[Second Part]

Am7
    You know, the last time

Continues after the ad
Remove ads
I laughed this hard was
C2
   On the trampoline in somebody’s 
backyard
G
  I must’ve been about eight or nine

That was the night

I fell off and broke my arm

Am7
    Pretty soon I learned cautious 
discretion
C2
   When your first crush

Crushes something kind
G
  When I said I don’t believe in 
marriage

That was a lie

[Pre-Chorus]

Am7
Every eldest daughter
         C2
Was the first lamb to the slaughter
      G
So we all dressed up as wolves

And we looked fire

[Chorus]

    Am7
But I’m not a bad bitch
      C2
And this isn’t savage
         G
But I’m never gonna let you down

I’m never gonna leave you out

 Am7
So many traitors
  C2
Smooth operators
         G
But I’m never gonna break that vow

I’m never gonna leave you
 Am7  C2   G
Now, now, now

[Bridge]

    D
We lie back
                        Em
A beautiful, beautiful time-lapse
                           C
Ferris wheels, kisses and lilacs
                        G
And things I said were dumb

                                 D
‘Cause I thought that I’d never find
 that
                      Em
Beautiful, beautiful life that
                        C
Shimmers that innocent light back
                   G
Like when we were young

[Pre-Chorus]

Am7
Every youngest child felt
           C2
They were raised up in the wild
                G
But now you’re home

[Final Chorous]

       Am7
‘Cause I’m not a bad bitch
      C2
And this isn’t savage
         G
And I’m never gonna let you down

I’m never gonna leave you out

 Am7
So many traitors
  C2
Smooth operators
         G
But I’m never gonna break that vow

I’m never gonna leave you
 Am7  C2   G
Now, now, now

 Am7  C2
Now, now
                           G
I’m never gonna leave you now
