Chords
[Verse 1]
I was Amreading Slim Aarons and GI got to thinking that DI thought
MayAmbe I'd get less stressed Gif I was tested less Dlike
All of these debutantes
AmSmiling for miles in pink Gdresses and high heels on whiteD yachts
But AmI'm not,G baby, DI'm not
No, AmI'm not,G that, DI'm not
[Chorus]
I've been Ctearing around in my Dfucking nightgown
2Em4/7 Sylvia CPlath
Writing in blood on my Dwalls
'Cause the ink in my Empen don't work in my noteCpad
Don't ask if I'm happy, you Dknow that I'm not
But at Gbest, I can D/F#say I'm not Csad
'Cause hope is a dangerous Gthing for a woman like Dme to have
CHope is a dangerous Gthing for a woman like Dme to have
[Bridge]
Am G D Am

[Verse 2]
I had Am15year dances
Church Gbasement romances, yeah, DI've cried
AmSpilling my guts with the GBowery Bums
Is the Donly love I've ever known
ExAmcept for the stage, which I Galso call home, when DI'm not
AmServin' up God in a burntG coffee pot for the triDad
HelAmlo, it's the most famous Gwoman you know on the DiPad
AmCalling from beyond the Ggrave, I just wanna say,D "Hi, Dad"
[Chorus]
I've been Ctearing up town in my Dfucking white gown
Like a Emgoddamn near socioCpath
Shaking my ass is the Donly thing that's
Got this Emblack narcissist off my Cback
She couldn't care less, and I Dnever cared more
So there's Gno more to D/F#say about Cthat
Except hope is a dangerous Gthing for a woman like Dme to have
CHope is a dangerous Gthing for a woman with Dmy past
[Verse 3]
There's a Amnew revolution, a Gloud evolution that DI saw
AmBorn of confusion and Gquiet collusion of Dwhich mostly I've known
A Ammodern day woman with a Gweak constitution, 'cause DI've got
AmMonsters still under my bedG that I could never Dfight off
A Amgatekeeper carelessly Gdropping the keys on my Dnights off
[Chorus]
I've been Ctearing around in my Dfucking nightgown
2Em4/7 Sylvia CPlath
Writing in blood on your Dwalls
'Cause the ink in my Empen don't look good in my Cpad
They write that I'm happy, they Dknow that I'm not
But at Gbest, you can D/F#see I'm not Csad
But hope is a dangerous Gthing for a woman like Dme to have
CHope is a dangerous Gthing for a woman like Dme to have
CHope is a dangerous Gthing for a woman like Dme to have
[Outro]
But CI haveG it
Yeah, DI have it
Yeah, CI haveG it
DI have C
