Intro: Bbm Gb Db  Bbm Gb Db

Verse 1:
Bbm        Gb            Db
If I could send a letter back in time
Bbm        Gb        Db
To younger me in her wilder days
Bbm  Gb               Db
a daydreamer with her head in the sky
    Ebm7                Gb
And always learning the hard way

Verse 2:
Bbm7        Gb              Db
I bet she'd think she knows better than me
Bbm7            Gb          Db
But that's just part of her charm
Bbm7     Gb                Db
Nah, you couldn't tell her anything
        Ebm7                    Gb
Nothing stubborn as her and her heart
        Ebm7                                   Gb
But I'd tell her while you're reaching for the stars

Chorus:
Ab                       Bbm
Just be careful what you wish for honey
    Gb                       Db
You never know it might come true
Ab                      Bbm
Don't be tempted by the easy money
   Gb                          Db
It might cost more than you're willing to lose
Ab                            Bbm7
The same thing that takes the edge off
                Gb                Db
It can take the shine off after a while
Ab                           Bbm7
So wear your diamonds on the inside
       Gb                                         Bbm Gb Db  Bbm Gb Db
'Cause everything that glitters ain't golden, child

Verse 3:
Bbm7          Gb               Db
They're gonna love you for the things you do
Bbm7        Gb      Db
But not for who you are
Bbm7        Gb              Db
So don't go trading in your ride or dies
        Ebm7                  Gb
For the cool kids down at the bar
Bbm7          Gb            Db
The time will come when you fall in lust
Bbm7      Gb        Db
And it'll look like love
Bbm7     Gb               Db
Until it knocks you right down in the dust
    Ebm7                      Gb
But know that you'll get back up
      Ebm                         Gb
Yeah, know that you're more than enough

Chorus:
Ab                       Bbm
Just be careful what you wish for honey
    Gb                       Db
You never know it might come true
Ab                      Bbm
Don't be tempted by the easy money
   Gb                          Db
It might cost more than you're willing to lose
Ab                            Bbm7
The same thing that takes the edge off
                Gb                Db
It can take the shine off after a while
Ab                           Bbm7
So wear your diamonds on the inside
       Gb                                         Bbm Gb Db  Bbm Gb Db
'Cause everything that glitters ain't golden, child

Chorus:

Everything that glitters ain't golden, child

Outro:
Bbm        Gb            Db
If I could send a letter back in time
Bbm        Gb        Db
To younger me in her wilder days
Bbm         Gb              Db
I'd let her know that she's doing just fine
    Bbm          Gb       Db
And everything's gonna be okay
