Alternative, maybe easier, version:
  • Transpose the chords 2 half steps down [ -2 ]
  • Put a capo on fret 2 to stay in the same key

Intro:
   A   Amaj7
   A7  D
 
Verse 1:
A            Amaj7
My skin is a story
A7                               D
With marks and lines, it makes me weary
A                 Amaj7
My face is like a galaxy
A7                               D
With spotty freckle stars and no sense of gravity
A
But even with the good
Amaj7
The bad feels so much stronger
A7
My inner demons, they always win
D
And in my mind they saunter
A
So many things that I've come to hate
Amaj7
They line my body and caress my face
A7
I feel so frail and empty too
D
Like a china tea cup with dried out glue
 
Chorus:
A             Amaj7
I am made of porcelain
A7                          D
I'm cracking now and then, it wears me down
A                 Amaj7
And I am made of porcelain
A7
I look okay but I am breaking down
D
Over and over again
Dm
Oh, over and over again
 
Verse 2:
A                      Amaj7
Stretches and patches corrupt my flesh
A7                     D
Slowly eating away any confidence that's left
A
And I really wish I wouldn't let
Amaj7
My appearance dictate how much I fret
A7                                        D
Because they say what's inside is what really matters
A
But I really can't seem to ignore
Amaj7
The parts of me that I abhor
A7                                D
It makes me feel like I am weak and battered
 
Chorus:
A             Amaj7
I am made of porcelain
A7                          D
I'm cracking now and then, it wears me down
A                 Amaj7
And I am made of porcelain
A7
I look okay but I am breaking down
D
Over and over again
Dm
Oh, over and over again
 
Outro:
A             Amaj7
Oooooo, oo-oo-oo-oo-oooo-oo-oo
A7                          D
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oooo-oo-oo, oo-oo, oo-oo
A                 Amaj7
Oooooo, oo-oo-oo-oo-oooo-oo-oo
A7                 D
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oooo-oo-oo, oo-oo, oo-oo
Dm
Oo-oo-oooo
