Intro:

 Gmaj7
Sunshine been keeping me up for days
There is no night—time it's only a passing phase
and I feel pretty, pretty enough for you — G — E

         C           D                       F  Am   
I felt so ugly before I didn't know what to do
C         D                        G (riff1)
Sometimes it's all I feel up to now
             C       
But it's not worth it to you 
D                             G (riff1)
Cause you gotta get out somehow 
         C           D                 G    E          
It's the destruction that you require to feel
             C        D                        F   Am
Like somebody wants you someone that's more for real

Solo:

Chords are C — D — G — E x3  then  C — D — F — Am


C        D                      G   E
Sunshine been keeping me up for days
           C          D            G           (Riff1)E
There is no night—time it's only a passing phase
              C    D                 G    E
And I'll feel pretty another hour or two
         C            D                       F  Am  
I felt so ugly before, I didn't know what to do
I felt so ugly before, I didn't know what to do
I felt so ugly before, I didn't know what to do
