F              C          F          C
I was nine and talking to God in the shower
F             C           F        C
I knew he was busy, said "Sorry to bother
    F           C            F              C
But why am I so bad at being pretty like my mother?"
Am          C          F
I wanted to please her
                  Am            C
Guess I've always been a people pleaser


[Chorus]
  C           Dm          F
I tried to be quiet, play nice
      C             Dm       F
But I knew I wasn't doing it right
      C               Dm             F
And I cried, wiped my eyes, and then smiled
                   C          Dm       F
'Cause they didn't know I was living a lie
        Am           G
I don't know when it happened
    F             C       Dm      F
But I don't wanna be your cheer captain


[Interlude]
Am C

[Verse 2]
F                C              F             C
I shouldn't have called, I know he's probably busy
    F                C         F             G
And when he fucks me over I'll say that I'm sorry
    F                 C             F            C
And then I'll take it all off so he says that he wants me
       Am           C
'Cause I'm a people pleaser


[Verse 3]
    F               C             F         C
And now he's doing lines with the boys on a Monday
F               C                 F           C
Showed up at my house, all strung out, like a day late
F                  C           F            C
Watched his stupid band at the club, no one else came
Am           C
I'm a people pleaser but
N.C.
I don't want to be her


[Chorus]
  C           Dm          F
I tried to be quiet, play nice
      C             Dm       F
But I knew I wasn't doing it right
      C               Dm             F
And I cried, wiped my eyes, and then smiled
                   C          Dm       F
'Cause they didn't know I was living a lie
        Am           G         F
I don't know when it happened
    F             C       Dm      F
But I don't wanna be your cheer captain

[Outro]
                 C      Dm   F
How did I let it happen?
              C       Dm      F
I don't wanna be your cheer captain
         C       Dm     F
I was so sad then
              C       Dm      F
I don't wanna be your cheer captain
             C        Dm   F
Wish that I knew then
                   C       Dm      F
That I don't wanna be your cheer captain
