[Intro]
F#m E D A
F#m E D A
 
[Verse 1]
F#m                    E         D        A
Maybe it's cause your mom never kissed you
       F#m                E                 D    A
If you ever cried, you'd wipe with muscle tissue
F#m               E                       D        A
You bench pressing more than me's not the issue
F#m                   E
I know you're actually weaker than that
D                      A
Let's open up and get deeper than that
 
[Pre-Chorus]
F#m            E            D                 A
Like why, why are you only vulnerable when no one's around
F#m      E                   D
Your gym membership is not a crown
 
[Chorus]
               F#m    E
You're not so tough
             D                        A
I know that nightlight's on when you sleep
              F#m     E
You're not so tough
                D                  A
Yeah, you watch Eat Pray Love on repeat
        F#m                  E
And I'm sure you'd win in an altercation
             D               A
But you're still insecure to me
              F#m   E
Oh, so mess me up
                      D
I know you're not so tough
 
[Verse 2]
        F#m                E                    D            A
Are you insecure that the steroids are causing hair loss
           F#m             E                          D          A
That your Lulu shorts don't quite vibe with your camo airpods
         F#m          E                             D             A
And if I ran into you past sunset I'd probably be scared oh
F#m                     E
I know you're honestly weaker than that
D                        A
I bet you know that you need to relax
 
    F#m              E                     D          A
And I don't mean to come at you like it's Watergate
F#m            E               D            A
My pale ghostly body's purely water-weight
     F#m               E                  D           A
Yeah, I should probably substitute what's on my plate
    F#m                 E
But I still acknowledge those feelings inside
        D                A
Let's work on your habit to run or to hide
 
[Pre-Chorus]
F#m            E            D                 A
Like why, why are you only vulnerable when no one's around
F#m      E                   D
Your gym membership is not a crown
 
[Chorus]
               F#m    E
You're not so tough
             D                        A
I know that nightlight's on when you sleep
              F#m     E
You're not so tough
                D                  A
Yeah, you watch Eat Pray Love on repeat
        F#m                  E
And I'm sure you'd win in an altercation
            D                A
But you're still insecure to me
              F#m   E
Oh, so mess me up
                      D    A
I know you're not so tough
 
[Interlude]
              F#m     E
You're not so tough
D         A
You're not
              F#m     E
You're not so tough
D         A
You're not
              F#m     E
You're not so tough
D         A
You're not
              F#m     E
You're not so tough
D
You're not
 
[Chorus]
               F#m    E
You're not so tough
             D                        A
I know that nightlight's on when you sleep
              F#m     E
You're not so tough
                D                  A
Yeah, you watch Eat Pray Love on repeat
        F#m                  E
And I'm sure you'd win in an altercation
            D                A
But you're still insecure to me
              F#m   E
Oh, so mess me up
                      D    A
I know you're not so tough
