Lyrics

(D)Bought a bunch of make up,

(B)tryin’ to cov er up my face.

(D)I start ed to skip lunch,

stopped (B)eat ing cake on birth days.

(D)Bought a new pre scrip tion

to (B)try to stay calm.

’Cause there’s (D)al ways some thing miss ing,

there’s al ways (B)some thing in the mir ror that I (A)think looks wrong.

When (D)pret ty is n’t (G)pret ty e nough,

what do you do?

And (D)ev ’ry bod y’s (G)keep ing it up,

so you think it’s you.

I could (D)change up my bod y and (G)change up my face, I could (B)try ev ’ry lip stick in (A)ev er y shade.

But I’d al ways feel the (G)same,

’cause (B)pret ty is n’t (A)pret ty e nough an y ways.

(D)You can win the bat tle,

(B)but you’ll nev er win the war.

(D)Fix the things you hat ed

And I (E)try to ig nore it, but it’s (D)ev ’ry thing I see.

It’s on the (G)post ers on the wall, it’s in the (A)shit ty mag a zines.

It’s in my phone, it’s in my head, it’s in the boys I bring to bed.

It’s all a round, it’s all the time, I don’t know why I e ven try.

When (A)pret ty e nough.

And I (E)bought all the clothes that they (D)told me to buy.

I chased (G)some dumb i deal my (A)whole fuck ing life.

And (E)none of it mat ters, and (D)none of it ends.

You just (G)feel like shit o ver and (A)o ver a gain.

No, it ’ll nev er change.

(D)Pret ty is n’t (G)pret ty e nough.

(D)Ev ’ry bod y’s (G)keep ing it up.
