Capo: 1st fret

[Verse 1]
C
I wake up early
                   Am F
Sometimes at 5:30 to run
C
My mom got too worried
                    Fmaj7 F
I had to tell her it was fun
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
   C             E
Oh, I feel like a failure
     Fmaj7               F
If I don't skip breakfast and lunch
     C
I'm chasing a body
  Cmaj7                 F   Fmaj7
I know that I'll never outrun
 
 
[Chorus]
        C
'Cause I'll always wish
                    F
I was smaller than this
    C
And I just can't quit
               F
Pulling at my skin
         Am                         G
Oh, I'm scared that I'm never gonna like
       F
How I look and I wish I knew why
       C           G
'Cause I'll always wish
                  F
I was smaller than this
 
 
[Verse 2]
 C
I'll set a goal for myself
                     F
And I'll try to work hard
 C
I'll reach it but swear
                                F
I look just like I did from the start
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 Am                    E
I know that it's not true
            F
But I feel like I'm the only one
 C
Who's chasing a body
                         F
I know that I'll never outrun
 
[Chorus]
        C
'Cause I'll always wish
                    F
I was smaller than this
    C
And I just can't quit
               F
Pulling at my skin
         Am                         G
Oh, I'm scared that I'm never gonna like
       F
How I look and I wish I knew why
       C           G
'Cause I'll always wish
                  F
I was smaller than this
 
[Hook]
C
I was smaller
 
I was smaller
F
I was smaller
 
I wish I was
C
I was smaller
 
I was smaller
F
I was smaller
 
I wish I was
 
 
[Chorus]
 C
I'll always wish
                     F
I was smaller than this (I was smaller, I was smaller)
    C             Dm
And I just can't quit (I was smaller, I was smaller)
                Am                F
Pulling at my skin(I was smaller, I was smaller, I was smaller)
         Am                           G
Oh, I'm scared that I'm never gonna like
       F
How I look and I wish I knew why
       C
That I'll always wish
                   F
I was smaller than this
              I wake up early, sometimes at 5:30 to run
My mom got too worried, I had to tell her it was fun
Oh, I feel like a failure if I don't skip breakfast and lunch
I'm chasing a body I know that I'll never outrun

'Cause I'll always wish I was smaller than this
And I just can't quit pulling at my skin
Oh, I'm scared that I'm never gonna like
How I look and I wish I knew why
'Cause I'll always wish I was smaller than this

I'll set a goal for myself and I'll try to work hard
I'll reach it but swear I look just like I did from the start
I know that it's not true but I feel like I'm the only one
Who's chasing a body I know that I'll never outrun

'Cause I'll always wish I was smaller than this
And I just can't quit pulling at my skin
Oh, I'm scared that I'm never gonna like
How I look and I wish I knew why
That I'll always wish I was smaller than this

I was smaller, I was smaller, I was smaller
I wish I was
I was smaller, I was smaller, I was smaller
I wish I was

I'll always wish I was smaller than this
And I just can't quit pulling at my skin
Oh, I'm scared that I'm never gonna like
How I look and I wish I knew why
That I'll always wish I was smaller than this
