Dm               C 
 Just an average girl She always wore a smile 
           Bb                              F 
 She was cheerful and happy for a short while 
            A                          Bb 
 Now she's older, things are getting colder 
                             
 Life's not what she thought, she wishes someone had told her 


 Dm                    C                Dm 
 She told you she was down, you let it slip by 
            Bb 
 So from then on she kept it on the inside 
 F                 A 
 She told herself she was alright 
               Bb                                           Bb   C 
 But she was telling white lies Can't you tell? Look at her dull eyes 


   Dm            C                         Dm 
 Tried to stop herself from crying almost every night 
          Bb                                           F 
 But she knew there was no chance of feeling alright 
                              A 
summer came, all she wore was long sleeves 
               Bb                                           Bb   C 
'cause those cuts on her wrists were bleeding through you see 


Dm                     C                   Dm 
She knew she was depressed, didn't want to admit it 
                 Bb                           F 
Didn't think she fit in, everyone seemed to miss it 
                       A               Bb 
She carried on like a soldier with a battle wound, 
                                 Bb C Dm 
Bleeding out from every cut her body consumed 


Dm                     C                   Dm 
She had no friends at school, all alone she sat 
                 Bb                           F 
And if someone were to notice she would blame the cat 
                       A               Bb 
But those cuts on her wrist they were no mistake, 
                                 Bb C Dm 
But no one cared enough to save her from this self hate 


 Dm               C 
Things were going down never really up,  
                 Bb                           F 
And here she is now stuck in this stupid rut 
                       A               Bb 
She knew exactly what she had to do next, 
                                 Bb C Dm 
Just stand on the chair and tie the rope around her neck 


 Dm               C 
She wrote a letter with her hands shaking wild, 
                 Bb                           F 
"Look at me now are you proud of your precious child?" 
                       A               Bb 
But she knew that her parents weren't the ones to blame, 
                                 Bb C Dm 
It was the world that should bow down it's head in shame 


 Dm               C 
She stood up on the chair and looked out at the moon, 
                 Bb                           F 
Just don't think it'll all be over soon 
                       A               Bb 
The chair fell down as she took her final breath, 
                                 Bb C Dm 
It's all over all gone, now she's greeting death 


 Dm               C 
Her mum walks in, she falls down to the floor, 
                 Bb                           F 
And now nothing can take back what she just saw 
                       A               Bb 
The little girl that she raised is just hanging there, 
                                 Bb C Dm 
Her body's pale and her face is violently bare, 


 Dm               C 
She sees the note and unfolds it with care, 
                 Bb                           F 
All she does is stare, "How can this be fair?" 
                       A               Bb 
She starts reading as the tears roll down her face, 
                                 Bb C Dm 
"I'm sorry Mum, but this world is just not my place, 


 Dm               C 
I've tried for so long to fix this and fit in, 
                 Bb                           F 
I've come to realise this world's full of sin, 
                       A               Bb 
There's nothing for me here, I'm just a waste of space, 
                                 Bb C Dm 
I've got no reason to stay here with this awful race, 


 Dm               C 
It's a disgrace, I was misplaced, 
                 Bb                           F 
Born in the wrong time and in the wrong place, 
                       A               Bb 
It's ok though, 'cause you'll see me soon, 
                                 Bb C Dm 
You'll know when your time has come, just look at the moon, 


 Dm               C 
As it shines bright, throughout the night, 
                 Bb                           F 
And remember everyone's facing their own fights, 
                       A               Bb 
But i can't deal with this pain, I'm not a fighter, 
                                 Bb C Dm 
You'll make it through the night, just hug your pillow tighter 


 Dm               C 
So let the world know that I died in vain, 
                 Bb                           F 
Because the world around me is the one to blame, 
                       A               Bb 
And I know in a year you'll forget I'm gone, 
                                 Bb C Dm 
'Cause I'm not really something to be dwelled on, 


 Dm               C 
That's what they used to tell me, all those kids at school, 
                 Bb                           F 
So I'm going by the law majority rules, 
                       A               Bb 
My presence on this earth is not needed any longer, 
                                 Bb C Dm 
And if anything I hope this makes you stronger, 


 Dm               C 
You're the best friend that I ever had, 
                 Bb                           F 
Such a shame I had to make you so very sad, 
                       A               Bb 
Just remember that you meant everything to me, 
                                 Bb C Dm 
And to my heart, you're the only one that held the key, 


 Dm               C 
Now it's time to go I'm running out of space to write, 
                 Bb                           F 
And yes I lost my fight, but please just hold on tight 
                       A               Bb 
I'm watching over you from the clouds above, 
                                 Bb C Dm 
And sending down the purest and whitest dove, 


 Dm               C 
To watch over you and be my helpful eye, 
                 Bb            F 
So this is it world...Goodbye!" 
A  Bb            Bb C Dm C   Dm Bb   F A Bb
