Tom: C
F C F C
I was nine and talking to God in the shower
F C F C
I knew he was busy, said "Sorry to bother
F C F C
But why am I so bad at being pretty like my mother?"
Am C F
I wanted to please her
Am C
Guess I've always been a people pleaser
[Chorus]
C Dm F
I tried to be quiet, play nice
C Dm F
But I knew I wasn't doing it right
C Dm F
And I cried, wiped my eyes, and then smiled
C Dm F
'Cause they didn't know I was living a lie
Am G
I don't know when it happened
F C Dm F
But I don't wanna be your cheer captain
[Interlude]
Am C
[Verse 2]
F C F C
I shouldn't have called, I know he's probably busy
F C F G
And when he fucks me over I'll say that I'm sorry
F C F C
And then I'll take it all off so he says that he wants me
Am C
'Cause I'm a people pleaser
[Verse 3]
F C F C
And now he's doing lines with the boys on a Monday
F C F C
Showed up at my house, all strung out, like a day late
F C F C
Watched his stupid band at the club, no one else came
Am C
I'm a people pleaser but
N.C.
I don't want to be her
[Chorus]
C Dm F
I tried to be quiet, play nice
C Dm F
But I knew I wasn't doing it right
C Dm F
And I cried, wiped my eyes, and then smiled
C Dm F
'Cause they didn't know I was living a lie
Am G F
I don't know when it happened
F C Dm F
But I don't wanna be your cheer captain
[Outro]
C Dm F
How did I let it happen?
C Dm F
I don't wanna be your cheer captain
C Dm F
I was so sad then
C Dm F
I don't wanna be your cheer captain
C Dm F
Wish that I knew then
C Dm F
That I don't wanna be your cheer captain
