You're b^Geautiful With the shiniest diamonds in your^C ears You can't hear your mother – she's crying in t^Emhe other room She knows it^C won't be okay

So you p^Gick up your books, that you never read R^Cun off to school like a good drama queen ^EmDo you care where you're going, or know where you've been' ^CBarely a woman, you're 18 years in

^AOur faith is placed in second chances A^Cs the angel and her de^Dmons dance it's

^CLike you're 18^Em years in^D with n^Go way o^Cut And you're the s^Emtar of the s^Dtory you d^Gon't care a^Cbout Just a lit^Emtle girl in a ^Dbigger world turning ^Gupside-d^Cown Well, don't' you ^Emthrow it all a^Dway when no one's h^Gere to pull you^C out

^EmAnd when you're s^Cafe and s^Gound i^Dnside you^Emr bed I know you d^Cream of th^Gings bigger than th^De things that yo^Emu let live When you're ^Csafe and ^Gsound ^Dinside your ^Embed

I know you d^Cream of things ^GI, I know you dr^Deam 18 years ^Cin Like you're 18 years in with no way out And you're the star of the story you don't care about Just a little girl in a bigger world turning upside-down Well, don't' you throw it all away when no one's here to pull you out
