[intro] D G [verse 1] D I've always played the part of Shakespeare G I hide behind the ink and pen I build up worlds and choose a D savior G I write beginning, middle, end [pre-chorus] D I'm so tired of being a book on the shelf Tired of stories for somebody else G Think that I'm ready to start a new chapter D I've been looking for some way to turn it around Looking for someone to give me the crown G And I wanna feel like I finally matter [chorus] D G I wanna be a Mona Lisa, ah-ah D The kinda girl that you can dream of, G ah-ah Em And I always had the words Bm but I don't wanna say it Em A Wish I could paint a smile on my face D I wanna be a Mona Lisa [verse 2] D So is there anybody out there G Who could change my point of view? D The way that Van Gogh uses yellow Or the self in Frida Kahlo G I could be that for you [pre-chorus] D I'm so tired of being a book on the shelf Tired of stories for somebody else G Think that I'm ready to start a new chapter D I've been looking for some way to turn it around Looking for someone to give me the crown G I wanna feel like I finally matter [chorus] D G I wanna be a Mona Lisa, ah-ah, D The kinda girl that you can dream of, G ah-ah (The kinda that you can dream of maybe) Em And I always had the words Bm but I don't wanna say it Em A Wish I could paint a smile on my face Em G I wanna be a Mona Lisa [bridge] Bm A I think I'm ready for my close-up, baby Em There's nothing left to do G And nothing left to lose Gdim Let me be your muse D G Ah-ah (I wanna be a Mona Lisa, baby) D G Ah-ah (The kind of girl that you can dream of) [outro] G And I always had the words Bm but I don't wanna say it G A Wish I could paint a smile on my face D G I wanna be a Mona Lisa (Ah-ah)
