Chorus:
                                         B
a cross to my shoulder, a jab to my chest
                              Gb
a kick to my ego, a lack of defense
                                       B
As though in slow motion, you wind up again
                        -nc-                         Gb
When did this become so normal and do I deserve this?

Verse 1:
                                           B
When I met you in high school, I felt overwhelmed
                                             Gb
At getting attention for the first time. It sounds
                                          B
Like a pitiful cliché, a lame kiss-and-tell
                                                   Gb
But the story takes twists and I can tell it myself
                                         B
I always adored you, the way you'd stand up
                                            Gb
For yourself and for me, but I couldn't handle
                                          B
The tempers and tantrums you' throw at random
                                                     Gb
Told myself it was my fault, 'cause I couldn't man up
                                     B7
That was the last time, I said and I said
                    Gb
And it happens again

Chorus:
                                         B
a cross to my shoulder, a jab to my chest
                                   Gb
a kick to my ego, a lack of defense
                                           B
As though in slow motion, you wind up again
                                                     Gb
When did this become so normal and do I deserve this?

Verse 2:
Gb
We laid out in your backyard naming every star we saw
          B
Back when both your hands were gentle and your speaking voice was soft
    Gb
You joked that romans made up constellations on the spot
      B                                   -nc-
And I believe that even Grecians beat me at connecting dots
          Gb
Cause for every side you showed me, I'd soften or I'd try
   Db
To justify with reasons pleading for you in my mind
  Ebm
I only see you sweetly when I see the stars at night
         B                                              Gb
Leave it to the only person that could ruin half the sky
                                       B7
I just want to tell her I miss my best friend
                    Gb
And it happens again

Chorus:
                                         B
a cross to my shoulder, a jab to my chest
                                   Gb
a kick to my ego, a lack of defense
                                          B
As though in slow motion, you wind up again
                                   Gb
When did this become so normal...?
                                        Db
a cross to my shoulder, a jab to my chest
                               Ebm
a kick to my ego, a lack of defense
                                          B
As though in slow motion, you wind up again

What do I deserve...?

Verse 3:
Gb
I'm finally ready to admit this wasn't my fault
Db
To learn that love does not exist when I feel this small
Ebm
And I can count on one hand the times you made me feel worthy
B                                                   Gb
I can count on one finger to say "You Don't Deserve Me."
            Db
You don't deserve me.
            Ebm
You don't deserve me.
