[Verse 1]
[Em]Look at my mouth, a [D]thin painted line
[Cadd9]Look at my limbs, b[D]ent up and bundled in twine
[Em]Fore[D]ver, [Am]ever m[D]ine
[Em]Form of a tree, s[D]hape of a child
I [Cadd9]wish I could cry, s[D]tuck in a permanent smile
[Em]Fore[D]ver, [Am]ever m[D]ine
[Cborus]
[Cadd9]I know you [D]must have loved me [G]sometime
But [Em7]now I'm just a [Cadd9]toy
I know you m[D]ust have loved me [Em911]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
[Cborus]
[Bridge]
Gm7 D2 Gm6/Bb [cb]Cadd2[/cb] Gm
But now I'm just a toy who needs you
A [Dadd9/F#]boy [Gm6]to [Cadd9]be [G/B]who
[Cadd9]Needs [G/B]to [Gm/Bb]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
[Cborus]
I know you must have loved me sometime
But now I'm just a toy
I know you must have loved me sometime
But [Gm7]now I'm just a [A7sus]toy[A7]
