[Verse] Am C She's younger than she looks But she’s old enough to know Em The nature of this world Am7 And so the story goes F She's dressed up like her friends C But she's prettier than them G The whole room turns to look Am Like something from a book [Refrain] F Ooh-ooh [Verse] Am F The speech becomes a slur C She’s talking to some creep Em Uncomfortable as hell Am But too polite to leave F The lines begin to blur C There's something in her drink Em She stumbles to his car F And no one says a thing [Pre-Chorus] C Gm Dm Oh my love, you're so young [Chorus] Am F Some might say she's able to get back her normal life C When you love someone unwillingly, Em you leave yourself behind Am F You're hiding in the bathroom and you pray for better times C Em E Say you're gonna leave him there and find a better life [Verse 3] Am Fmaj7 Down the rabbit hole C She wakes up in his bed Em Confused about her heart Am And bruised between her legs Fmaj7 But she's too afraid to leave C Or bite the hand that hits E She tells herself it's love F Then plays along with it [Pre-Chorus] C Gm Dm Oh my friend, you’re still young [Chorus] Am F Some might say she’s able to get back her normal life C When you love someone unwillingly, Em you leave yourself behind Am F You're hiding in the bathroom and you pray for better times C Em E Say you’re gonna leave him there and find a better life [Post-Chorus] F C Oh, oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh-oh) Gm Dm Run (Oh-oh-oh-oh) F C Oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh) [Bridge] Am F Abused at 17 C Some unrelenting creep NC The father of her son [Chorus] Am F Some might say she's able to get back her normal life C When you love someone unwillingly, Em you leave yourself behind Am F You're hiding in the bathroom and you pray for better times C Em E Say you're gonna leave him there and find a better life [Outro] Am (Oh, oh-oh-oh) F Ah, find a better life Am Oh, find a better life A
