Verse:
   Gb
I once loved a man
                      Bbm
Who was all lips and hands,
                  Db
Cracked lips and hands,
           Gb
Calloused hands.


    Gb
I still feel his touch
            Bbm
Against my skin
             Db
Past loves linger like
          Gb   Gb
Phantom limbs

Chorus:
 Gb                        Bbm
I'll cut straight to the heart
            Db
I don't believe
                          Gb
The pretty little things that you say.
                            Ab
I've heard a lot of little pretty things.
               Bbm
Don't buy me flowers,
                 Db
It pains me to watch


                      Gb        Gb  Ab
Pretty little things wilt away
  Ab                   Bbm
Pretty little things wilt away
        Db
Ah who ooh ah
  Db                   Gb        Gb  Ab
Pretty little things wilt away

Verse:
  Ab                   Gb
There are lessons in life
                       Bbm
No one should have to learn,
                  Db
But trust is now something
               Gb
I make people earn.


    Gb
So I'm not inclined
                 Bbm
To just give it away
                   Db
To a pair of blue eyes
                          Gb   Gb
With some nice things to say

Chorus:
 Gb                        Bbm
I'll cut straight to the heart
            Db
I don't believe
                          Gb
The pretty little things that you say.
                            Ab
I've heard a lot of little pretty things.
               Bbm
Don't buy me flowers,
                 Db
It pains me to watch


                      Gb        Gb  Ab
Pretty little things wilt away
  Ab                   Bbm
Pretty little things wilt away
        Db
Ah who ooh ah
  Db                   Gb        Gb  Ab
Pretty little things wilt away

Verse:
Ab          Gb                          Bbm
I know a trick to make a man's color show
                          Db
If he sees something he wants,
         Gb   Gb
Tell him no

Bridge::
 Bbm
Maybe you're right,
                  Db
Maybe I have been used up
     Gb
By another man's hungry hands.


 Bbm
Maybe you're right,
                   Db
Maybe I have been ruined
        Gb
For all other men after him.


     Bbm
But maybe I'm the one who's right.
 Db
Maybe you have proven why
 Gb
Women like me
 F                             F    (nc)
Never fall for pretty little things

Chorus:
(Gb)                       Bbm
I'll cut straight to the heart
            Db
I don't believe
                          Gb
The pretty little things that you just say.
                            Ab
I've heard a lot of little pretty things.
               Bbm
Don't buy me flowers,
                 Db
It pains me to watch
