Fm       A#m
Too thin, too smart
D#                               G#
Monday, don't fit in my jeans, stretch marks
Fm            A#m
Dark circles under my eyes
D#                              G# D#/G Fm
But no one wants to hear about that...

Fm                   A#m
I'm sick of putting labels on myself
 D#                 G#
Trying to fit in, trying to act like
             Fm
I'm somebody else
                      A#m
I'm taking all this pressure off myself
D#
I'm gon' say something for me, that's real

Chorus:
Fm    A#m                      D#
It's okay to be lost, to feel lonely
     G#          D#/G                 Fm
Sometimes I just don't know what I'm doing
         A#m                     D#
One day I'm beautiful, then I'm ugly
           G#         D#/G               Fm
But those days, they remind me that I'm human
    A#m                       D#
So go ahead and rip, tear me apart
          G#    D#/G          Fm
'Cause I'm not afraid of my flaws
         A#m                     D#
If the scars on my skin make me ugly
               G# D#/G Fm
Then let's get ugly

I know what they want
Bright lights, highlighter, contour on
Too scared to be vulnerable
But when did we become afraid of that?

I'm tired of all the pretty little lies
Don't need a thousand likes
To know that we're still beautiful inside
It's time to have the time of our lives
And say something real

Chorus

C#       G#            D#
I'm a recipe for disaster
                         Fm C#
Or I could be the recipe for
C#      G#           D#
The happiest ever after, oh-oh
C#       G#         D#
I'm a recipe for disaster
                     Fm   C#
Or I could be the recipe for
C#     G#           D#
The happiest ever after, oh-oh

Chorus:
It's okay to be lost, tofeel lonely
Sometimes I just don't know what I'm doing
One day I'm beautiful, then I'm ugly
But those days, they remind me that I'm human
So go ahead and rip, tear me apart
'Cause I'm not afraid of my flaws
If the scars on my skin make me ugly
Then let's get ugly

Ooh-ooh-ooh
Let's get ugly
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Hmm-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ugly
