[Verse 1] FAmDmWell, she's the prettiest girl at the party and she knows it
BbFCShe's got a picture-perfect smile that'll break your heart wide open
FAmDmShe'll let the butterflies free if your eyes meet for a moment
BbFCAnd when she finally leaves, it's like she's walking in slow motion
[Pre-Chorus]
BbFBut when she comes home
DmCSits down and gets in her bed
BbFShe's a mess and she's all alone
CSo done with trying to prеtend
[Chorus]
And she says
BbC"Under thе covers, I'm someone else
FCDmThan what you see on the cover of Vogue or Elle
BbCFYeah, the magazines don't always tell the truth"
And she says
BbC"Under the surface, I'm so much more
FCDmThan just a pretty face or the girl next door
BbCFYeah, the magazines don't always tell the truth"
[Verse 2]
FAmDmIt's been a couple of years, so she moves to West L.A
BbFC'Cause when you look that good, I guess you might as well get paid
FAmDmWent from her parents' old house to become a household name
BbFCIt's a whole new world but somehow still feels just the same
[Pre-Chorus]
BbF'Cause when she comes home
DmCSits down and gets in her bed, so successful
BbFBut she's still alone
CSo done with trying to pretend
[Chorus]
And she says
BbC"Under thе covers, I'm someone else
FCDmThan what you see on the cover of Vogue or Elle
BbCFYeah, the magazines don't always tell the truth"
And she says
BbC"Under the surface, I'm so much more
FCDmThan just a pretty face or the girl next door
BbCFYeah, the magazines don't always tell the truth"
[Bridge] BbmAnd maybe it's Maybelline
CBut it's probably make-believe
FCDm'Cause the dreams that they're selling to you
CBbCAre paper-thin too
[Chorus]
And she says
BbC"Under thе covers, I'm someone else
FCDmThan what you see on the cover of Vogue or Elle
BbCFYeah, the magazines don't always tell the truth"
And she says
BbC"Under the surface, I'm so much more
FCDmThan just a pretty face or the girl next door
BbCFYeah, the magazines don't always tell the truth"
