Intro: G G Am D

Verse 1:
  G
I hate to see my best friend so weak
  G
I hate to see my best friend in agony
      Am                      D
But I can’t do anything and I won’t
    G
You blame it on the cat I know you don’t have
    Am                                                      D
You say I should’ve seen the other guy but the other guy is glass

Chorus:
G                                               Am                       D
Poor little girl who doesn’t understand how she feels, but she knows too much
G
Poor little girl with yarn wrapped round her wrists
    Am                 D  
Her skin tells all her secrets

Verse 2:
G
You ask me if you’re sick enough yet
         Am                                      D
In their eyes, you’ll be sick enough when you’re dead
G
Mine are almost gone, yours are new and deep
     Am
Your mother can’t look at you anymore
     D
Your father doesn’t know it’s happening

Bridge:
        G
And you make me sick ‘cause I see you when I look in the mirror
Am
You are me, but from a year ago
D  
I’ve got better, you’ve only just started

Chorus:
G                                               Am                       D
Poor little girl who doesn’t understand how she feels, but she knows too much
G
Poor little girl, what happens when the yarn comes off?
    Am                 D
Her skin tells all her secrets
