Fictional

	  		

Verse 1:
D 
Well, I guess the third time's not a 
Charm 
A 
Nursing a three times broken heart 
Bm7                        G 
And down the rabbit hole again 
  D 
I put myself in another world 
      A 
Where I can be any other girl 
       Bm7                  G 
'Cause I don't really wanna face it 
 
Pre-Chorus
              D 
'Cause, if it isn't real, you can 

Pretend all you want 
     A 
It's all you'll ever need 
            Bm7 
"That's not healthy", they said, "To 
A 
Live in your head" 
       G 
But it hurts a lot less to me 
 

D 
I fall in love with boys I see on a TV 

Screen 
A 
The ones in books who are as perfect as 

They can be 
Bm7                              G 
I spend all of my time imagining what 

It would be like if they existed 
D 
My parents tell me I should look for 

One in real life 
A 
But I get let down by both the bad boys 
  
And the nice guys 
  Bm7 
I'm tired of giving more than I receive 
G 
So I'll just stick to the boys who 
              D 
Don't know me 

 
Verse 2:
D 
Oh, I hid his number, I almost called 
A 
Like, maybe he's hurting after all 
Bm7 
I can't afford to be that naïve 
               G 
I'll just keep wishing it was me in 

That ending scene 
              D 
Where they're meeting up halfway and 

They're kissing in the rain 
       A 
It's a little bit cliché but I love it 

Anyway 
            Bm7 
'Cause it's better than when you're 

Walking home 
        G 
And the rain starts pouring but you're 

All alone
