Sharpener Chords

[Intro]
| C     |       | G     | Em    |
| C     |       | G     | Em    |
 
 
[Verse 1]
C                       G
Sharpener's callin' me again
           Em           C
Tryin' to turn it into some-
                         G     Em
thing I can draw into my skin
C                          G
  Make it a picture that I love
             Em              C
Instead of something that I wish
                                        G     Em
I could get in the bath and scrub right off
 
 
[Chorus]
          C         Am        F    C
Why am I ashamed to look the way I do?
               G        Am            F           C
All ‘cause an escape to me was just a sharpener to you
 
 
[Interlude]
G  Am  F  C
G  Am  F  C
 
 
[Verse 2]
C                           G
  Big old pill to inch around
           Em                C
There's no copping out this time
                      G    
Try my best to get it down 
                             Em
(Get, get, get, get it down)
C                                    G
  Sometimes seems like I'm still young
               Em              C
Lookin' at the boy across the sink
                                       G     
Thinking "What the hell have you just done?" 
                                      Em
("What the hell have you just done?")
 
 
[Chorus]
          C         Am       F     C
Why am I ashamed to look the way I do?
               G        Am            F             C
All ‘cause an escape to me was just a sharpener to you
          G        Am       F              C
Why am I afraid of things I let inside my room?
                 G     Am           F            C
Just wanted some company, broke the sharpener in two
 
 
[Interlude]
G  Am  F      C
G  Am  F      C
 
 
[Outro]
                  G           Am
You say, why am I like this?
                   F        C
You mean, why am I stupid?
            G   Am                   F       C
‘Cause you know you’re not trying to fix it
                   G           Am
You mean, why am I like this?
                   F        C
You say, why am I selfish?
           G    Am              F        C
‘Cause you know honey you can’t help it
