_ _ I cut my veins with some rusty kitchen scissors.
[Bm] I screamed his name till the neighbors called the cops.
[Em] I numbed the pain at the expense of my liver.
[Bm] Don't know what I did next, all I know I [C#] couldn't stop.
[E] Word got around to the butterfly and the [A] Baptist.
[Bm] My mama's phone started ringing off the hook.
[Em] I can hear her now [E] saying she ain't [Bm] gonna have it.
Don't matter how you feel, it only matters [E] how you look.
Go [Em] and fix your makeup, girl, it's just a [B] breakup run.
And hide your crazy inside, acting like a lady.
[E] Cause I'll raise your banner, gotta keep it [Em] together.
Even [B] when you fall apart.
But this ain't my [B] mama's broken [E] heart. _ _ _
_ _ _ I wish I could be just a little less dramatic [Bm] like a Kennedy
when Camelot went down in flames.
[Em] Leave it to me to be [E] holding the [E] matches [Bm] when the firetrucks show up
and there's nobody [E] else to blame.
_ Can't get revenge [B] and keep a spotless [E] reputation.
_ [Bm] Sometimes revenge is a choice you gotta [Em] make.
My mama came from a softer [G] generation.
[Bm] You get a grip and bite your lip just to save a little [A] face.
Go and [Em]
fix your makeup, girl, it's just a breakup [B] run.
And hide your crazy inside, acting like a lady.
[Em] Cause I'll raise your banner, gotta keep it together.
[B] Even when you fall apart.
But this ain't my _ mama's [E] broken heart. _ _
_ _ _ How do you know it's pain to chose?
Lining lips and keeping close, crossing it.
[Em] Dodge your eyes and never [E] let them see you smile. _ _ _
_ [C#] _ [E] Go and fix your makeup, well it's just a breakup [B] run.
And hide your crazy inside, [Bm] acting like a lady.
[Em] Cause I'll raise your banner, gotta keep it [G] together.
[B] Even when you fall apart.
But this ain't my mama's [B] broken [Em] heart. _ _ _ _ _
