D            F#
Call me your nymph
G                      Gm
Praise me for martyr, praise me for sin
D            F#
Call me your muse
      G                   Gm
A sprite or an elf you cried to, then use

D           F#
I will not suffer
   G             Gm
Ah-ah, cry under covers
   D                 F#
Ah-ah, I'm not your mother
   G      Gm
Ah-ah, ah-ah

Chorus:
D                 F#
It's nymphology, not psychology
Bm                              G
Be the manic pixie dream girl that
you fucking ought to be
D               F#
Damaged oddity, bought by Sotheby's
Bm                               G
Auctioned to a selfish man who thinks
that he's the prophecy

D F# G                                    Gm
    You can't even spell but you're an "expert"
in nymphology
D F# G               Gm
    N-Y-M-P-H-O-L-O-G-Y, that's nymphology

I'm not fiction, I'm not fae
I won't lick your wounds today
But I'll throw you in the ring
Gift you with my suffering
I'm not crazy, I'm not wild
You're just stupid, little child
Get your image off my back
I'll give you a heart attack

I will not suffer, ah-ah
Cry under covers, ah-ah
I'm not your mother, ah-ah
Ah-ah

Chorus:
It's nymphology, not psychology
Be the manic pixie dream girl that you fuckin'
ought to be
Damaged oddity bought by Sotheby's
Auctioned to a selfish man who thinks that he's
the prophecy

You can't even spell but you're an "expert"
in nymphology
N-Y-M-P-H-O-L-O-G-Y, that's nymphology

D                    F#    G
Don't treat me that way, yeah
       Gm
You're acting like a wannabe
D            F#       G
I won't be ashamed, yeah
    Gm
For lovin' you so honestly
D                             F#
You're in a spell and it worked
                          G
And I'm returnin' the hurt
                           Gm
I'm kicking your ass out, flutter
my wings while I pout
D                              F#
Push your penis into your mouth
                                 G
I'll make you choke on your doubt
                             Gm
Cut you off, watch you die, just
a fairy with a knife

Chorus:
It's nymphology, not psychology
Be the manic pixie dream girl that you
fucking ought to be
Damaged oddity bought by Sotheby's
Auctioned to a selfish man who thinks that
he's the prophecy

Call me your nymph
You can't even spell but you're an "expert"
in nymphology
Call me your muse
N-Y-M-P-H-O-L-O-G-Y, that's nymphology

G                                        G#
Diamonds and rubies, the star in all the movies
          G                                   G#
Wears me out, big pockets, I am her favorite locket
             G       G#
Keeps them droolin',
G
The semi-precious stones ain't as
 G#                G
cold and they're curious
                                 G#          G
Where did I get refined, get my cuts And my polishes
                               G#             G
I am too many karats for your budget ask the jeweler
                                     G#
Your boyfriend tried me on, wore me out made him
 G
cooler
                                   G#        G
Like Moldavite or Emeralds from Colombian Andes

It will be the brightest,
               G#                G
the brightest green you've ever seen
                                  G#         G
Ancient and it's protective, an expensive rarity
                              G#
So rare, it is offensive, I think you will agree
