Nessa Barrett - keep me afraid

[chorus]
            Cm
I'm in the corner of your cage
         G7
Mascara running down my face
            Bb
The door is open, but I'll stay
                   F
You think you can keep me, keep me afraid
                   Cm
You're twisting screws inside my head
              G7
I won't just lie down and play dead
             Bb
Take a good look at my face,
                   F
you think you can keep me?

[verse 1]
  Cm
Scared to fall asleep at night when you're by my side
               G7
I don't know why, it doesn't feel right
 Bb
Hide behind your poker face, you do it every day
            F
I know you lie, so I fake a smile, ah

[pre-chorus]
Ab                 G7
 'Cause in the end, I know you'll get
F
Everything you gave

But I'm not afraid
                                G7
Da, da-da, da-da, da-da, da-dum
 Bb                              F
Da, da-da, da-da, da-da, da-dum, dum

[verse 2]
 Cm
Better hope and plead and pray
I keep your secret safe
            G7
You better run 'cause I got the gun
Bb
I don't need receipts to show the things that we both know
                   F
'Cause I got the scars to prove who you are, ah

[pre-chorus]
Ab                 G7
 'Cause in the end, I know you'll get

Everything you gave
