Verse 1
EmD
Look at my mouth, a thin painted line
Cadd9D
Look at my limbs, bent up and bundled in twine
EmDAmD
Forever, ever mine
EmD
Form of a tree, shape of a child
Cadd9D
I wish I could cry, stuck in a permanent smile
EmDAmD
Forever, ever mine
Chorus
Cadd9DG
I know you must have loved me sometime
Em7Cadd9
But now I'm just a toy
DEm911
I know you must have loved me sometime
Verse 2
First there was me, nothing but time
Till he came along, you told me you'd always be mine
Forever, ever mine
Look at his face, somewhat like mine
But look at his nose, you can always be sure that he's lying
Forever, ever mine
Chorus
Bridge

Gm7 D2 Gm6/Bb Cadd2 Gm

DaddGm6CadG/B
A boy to be who
Cadd9G/BGm/Bb
Needs to be
Verse 3
Better than him, worthy of you
Given the chance that he had, I know what I'd do
Forever, ever mine
I call him liar, you call him son
If I could move, I'd set him on fire and I'd run
Forever
Chorus
I know you must have loved me sometime
But now I'm just a toy
I know you must have loved me sometime
Gm7A7sA7
But now I'm just a toy
