Verse 1: F C Sharpener's calling me again Am F Trying to turn it into some C Am Thing I can draw into my skin F C Make it a picture that I love Am F Instead of something that I wish C I could get in the bath and scrub right off Chorus: (nc) F Dm Bb F Why am I ashamed to look the way I do? C Dm Bb F All 'cause an escape to me was just a sharpener to you Verse 2: F C Big old pill to inch around Am F There's no copping out this time C Am Try my best to get it down F C Sometimes seems like I'm still young Am F Looking at the boy across the sink C Thinking "What the hell have you just done?" Chorus: (nc) F Dm Bb F Why am I ashamed to look the way I do? C Dm Bb F All 'cause an escape to me was just a sharpener to you F Dm Bb F Why am I afraid of things I let inside my room?

I listened to this song on YouTube while looking at the chords, and I don’t think he uses Am. I could be wrong, but I think it sounds better without it. I do recommend staying in the given key, but you do whatever works. I love this song btw! For me, I think it’s about self-harm, and wanting to hurt yourself. 🙂
Also, the chords here don’t have the second half of the song, but that part isn’t good on the ukulele, and it’s not that long.
