Look at me, I'm my own worst enemy

Beat myself up now, every chance I see
Bm    A          D     G
Nice to everyone, when it comes to me
D      G       D     A
Cut myself up with brutal honesty

Chorus:
Bm           A           D              G
How can you love if you don't love yourself?
        D              G               D          A
If you don't love yourself, you can't love no one else

        D              G               D           A
If you don't love yourself, you can't love no one else, no

Look at you, you're just as f***** up as me
Only difference is I'll speak honestly
Nice to everyone, when it comes to me
It's like you hate yourself, don't see what I see

Chorus:
How can you love if you don't love yourself? (Don't love yourself)
If you don't love yourself (Don't love yourself)
You can love no one else (No one else)
How can you love if you don't love yourself? (Don't love yourself)
If you don't love yourself (Don't love yourself)
You can love no one else, no

If you don't love yourself
You can love no one else, no
If you don't love yourself
You can love no one else, no

Bm               A
Every twist and turn that a life takes
D           G
Like a boat in the sea when the wave breaks
D           G
Every night is the dawn of a new day
D              A
You don't lose if you learn from your mistakes

Every twist and turn that our life takes
Like a boat in the sea when the wave breaks
Every night is the dawn of a new day
You don't lose if you learn from your mistakes (No)

Oh, if you don't love yourself (No)
You can love no one else (Did you know?)
No, if you don't love yourself
You can love no one else, no
How can you love if you don't love yourself?
