Em D A

[Verse 1]
Em
I'm flawed, I'm flawed, I know this
D
You like me in small doses
A
What am I supposed to do with that?
Yeah, yeah, ooh
Em
You say I bring the drama
D
Like you got halos on ya'
A
Half the time it's you that makes it bad
Yeah, yeah, ooh

[Pre-Chorus]
Em
I'm wild I'm jealous, insane
     D
I'm scared but I don't run away (you do)
       A
It's pissing me off when you say
"Calm down, calm down," like that
Em
You know that I'm in it for real
          D
And you know everything that I feel
      A
Yeah to me, it is a big deal
So don't come at me like that

And it's true
I can't seem to shake it loose

I say exactly what I mean
Isn't that real enough for you?
Yeah, yeah, ooh
