C   E   Am  E5 

C
When I was your girl
          E
I didn't know that I would
                Am
end where you begin
                       E5
more beautiful in your skin
                C
No matter of regret
                 E
this loosening curl
             Am
Teasing you out
                  E5
When I was your girl

        C                        E                  Am
In my room you said we'll stay here for an endless year
            F                         C
Close the door we're letting no one near
                 E    Am
When I was your girl
                  E5
When I was your girl

           C
And then today
                            E
All the nightmares came my way
                           Am
All the tears I tried to stay
                   F
You were never satisfied
                  C
When I was your girl
                  G
When I was your girl

                C
And when I was she
             E
I'd put on every coat
                      Am
To wear the weather down
                 E5
But even in the sun
                      C
You said you tasted rain
                 E
I watched you unfurl
               Am
You held on to me
                 E5
When I was your girl

        C               E                          Am
In my cups I see you watching from the edge of the bed
              F                    C
I'm sinking words that you never said
                  E    Am
When I was your girl
                  E5
When I was your girl

            C
And then today
                          E
I'll be keeping out your way
                       Am
Every debt they owe I pay
                     F
They were never satisfied
                  C
When I was your girl
                  G
When I was your girl

                C
We tore out a page
                      E
Impolitely quit the stage
                         Am
Into corners sweep our rage
                           F
I would never leave you crying

                  C
When I was your girl
                  G
When I was your girl
                  F
