Madeline The Person - As A Child

Capo: 1st fret

[Verse]
G
All that Ive wanted is to

Cadd9
talk
G
to someone who’s dead

Cadd9
But Unfortunately I can’t call
G
him so I sing instead
D79
Id never tell you to cover
G
your self in a lie

But I will still bite my lip

Cadd9 G
harder so that I don’t cry

Am
And it burns
G
for a while
Am
And it hurts all the more
D7
when you carry the world
G
as a child

[Verse 2]
G Cadd9
Let me just tell you I really
G
should go back to sleep

It’s not that Im ungrateful
Cadd9
I have just two many
G
memories to keep

Iwish you could feel
D79
how heavy I am all the
G
time

Sometimes when I smile
Cadd9
I bite my lip
G
so that I don’t cry

Am
And it burns
G
for a while
Am
And it hurts all the more
D7
when you carry the world
G
as a child

G Cadd9 Am D7

[Verse 3] *One Strum This Last Part*
Am
And I burn
G
For myself
Am
And I know that it should
D7
When it’s screaming at me
G
to be felt
