Dm               C
 Just an average girl She always wore a smile
           Bb                              F
 She was cheerful and happy for a short while
            A                          Bb
 Now she's older, things are getting colder
                            
 Life's not what she thought, she wishes someone had told her

 Dm                    C                Dm
 She told you she was down, you let it slip by
            Bb
 So from then on she kept it on the inside
 F                 A
 She told herself she was alright
               Bb                                           Bb   C
 But she was telling white lies Can't you tell? Look at her dull eyes

   Dm            C                         Dm
 Tried to stop herself from crying almost every night
          Bb                                           F
 But she knew there was no chance of feeling alright
                              A
summer came, all she wore was long sleeves
               Bb                                           Bb   C
'cause those cuts on her wrists were bleeding through you see

Dm                     C                   Dm
She knew she was depressed, didn't want to admit it
                 Bb                           F
Didn't think she fit in, everyone seemed to miss it
                       A               Bb
She carried on like a soldier with a battle wound,
                                 Bb C Dm
Bleeding out from every cut her body consumed

Dm                     C                   Dm
She had no friends at school, all alone she sat
                 Bb                           F
And if someone were to notice she would blame the cat
                       A               Bb
But those cuts on her wrist they were no mistake,
                                 Bb C Dm
But no one cared enough to save her from this self hate

 Dm               C
Things were going down never really up, 
                 Bb                           F
And here she is now stuck in this stupid rut
                       A               Bb
She knew exactly what she had to do next,
                                 Bb C Dm
Just stand on the chair and tie the rope around her neck

 Dm               C
She wrote a letter with her hands shaking wild,
                 Bb                           F
"Look at me now are you proud of your precious child?"
                       A               Bb
But she knew that her parents weren't the ones to blame,
                                 Bb C Dm
It was the world that should bow down it's head in shame

 Dm               C
She stood up on the chair and looked out at the moon,
                 Bb                           F
Just don't think it'll all be over soon
                       A               Bb
The chair fell down as she took her final breath,
                                 Bb C Dm
It's all over all gone, now she's greeting death

 Dm               C
Her mum walks in, she falls down to the floor,
                 Bb                           F
And now nothing can take back what she just saw
                       A               Bb
The little girl that she raised is just hanging there,
                                 Bb C Dm
Her body's pale and her face is violently bare,

 Dm               C
She sees the note and unfolds it with care,
                 Bb                           F
All she does is stare, "How can this be fair?"
                       A               Bb
She starts reading as the tears roll down her face,
                                 Bb C Dm
"I'm sorry Mum, but this world is just not my place,

 Dm               C
I've tried for so long to fix this and fit in,
                 Bb                           F
I've come to realise this world's full of sin,
                       A               Bb
There's nothing for me here, I'm just a waste of space,
                                 Bb C Dm
I've got no reason to stay here with this awful race,

 Dm               C
It's a disgrace, I was misplaced,
                 Bb                           F
Born in the wrong time and in the wrong place,
                       A               Bb
It's ok though, 'cause you'll see me soon,
                                 Bb C Dm
You'll know when your time has come, just look at the moon,

 Dm               C
As it shines bright, throughout the night,
                 Bb                           F
And remember everyone's facing their own fights,
                       A               Bb
But i can't deal with this pain, I'm not a fighter,
                                 Bb C Dm
You'll make it through the night, just hug your pillow tighter


 Dm               C
So let the world know that I died in vain,
                 Bb                           F
Because the world around me is the one to blame,
                       A               Bb
And I know in a year you'll forget I'm gone,
                                 Bb C Dm
'Cause I'm not really something to be dwelled on,

 Dm               C
That's what they used to tell me, all those kids at school,
                 Bb                           F
So I'm going by the law majority rules,
                       A               Bb
My presence on this earth is not needed any longer,
                                 Bb C Dm
And if anything I hope this makes you stronger,

 Dm               C
You're the best friend that I ever had,
                 Bb                           F
Such a shame I had to make you so very sad,
                       A               Bb
Just remember that you meant everything to me,
                                 Bb C Dm
And to my heart, you're the only one that held the key,

 Dm               C
Now it's time to go I'm running out of space to write,
                 Bb                           F
And yes I lost my fight, but please just hold on tight
                       A               Bb
I'm watching over you from the clouds above,
                                 Bb C Dm
And sending down the purest and whitest dove,

 Dm               C
To watch over you and be my helpful eye,
                 Bb            F
So this is it world...Goodbye!"
