C#m                           A
Go ahead and say what you're gonna say
                 E                  B
Give it to me straight, don't sugarcoat it
C#m                          A
Go ahead and do what you're gonna do
               E                B
We're already done, I already know it
   C#m                           A
So you can take your new blonde out to get your drink on
    E            B
For everyone to see
    F#m               A
But you don't get to get to me

Chorus:
                        E
I wear my pain like stilettos
                                   B
As bad as it may hurt, no, you'll never know
                                        C#m
I keep walking with my head up, putting on a show
      A
And fronting like nothing is wrong
                             E
I talk the talk like I'm a tough girl
                                              B
'Cause there's barely room for weakness in a rough world
                                  C#m
That keeps saying you were never enough, girl,
                    A
Yeah, when you get burned, you learn to be strong
                       C#m
I wear my pain like stilettos

So I ain't staying down, tonight I'm going out
Yeah, even if I have to fake it
A little black dress to cover my mess
So you won't know my heart is breaking
Pull myself together from the fallout of forever
For everyone to see
No, you don't get to get to me

Chorus

C#m  A   E   B
Oh, oh, whoa, oh, whoa
Whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa
Whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa
Oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh

Chorus

Yeah,I'll wear my pain like stilettos

Oh, oh, whoa, oh, whoa
Whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa
Whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa
Oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh
Yeah
