Amanda Palmer -- "Bigger on the Inside"

Use the third fret on the B string for accents if you would like.

G C A C

G
You’d think I’d shot their children
C
From the way that they are talking
A
And there’s no point in responding
C
‘Cause it will not make them stop.


G
And I am tired of explaining
C
And of seeing so much hating
A
In the very same safe havens
C
Where I used to just see helping


G
I’ve been drunk and skipping dinner
C
Eating skin from off my fingers
A
And I tried to call my brother
C
But he no longer exists


G
I keep forgetting to remember
C
That he would have been much prouder
A
If he saw me shake these insults off
C
Instead of getting bitter


A
I am bigger on the inside
C
But you have to come inside to see me
A
Otherwise you’re only hating
G
Other people’s low-res copies


G


G
You’d think I’d learn my lesson
C
From the way they keep on testing
A
My capacity for pain
C
And my resolve to not get violent


G
But though my skin is thickened
C
Certain spots can still be got in
A
It is typically human of me
C
Thinking I am different


G
To friends hooked up to hospital
C
Machines, two kinds of cancer
A
And there is no better place than from this
C
Waiting room to answer


G
The French kid who wrote an e-mail
C
To the website late last night
A
His father raped him and he’s scared
C
He asked me “How do you keep fighting?"


G
And the truth is I don’t know
C
I think it’s funny that he asked me
A
‘Cause I don’t feel like a fighter lately
C
I am too unhappy


A
You are bigger on the inside
C
But your father cannot see
A
You need to tell someone, be strong
G
And somewhere some dumb rockstar truly loves you.


G


G
You’d think I’d get perspective
C
From my few years by the bedside
A
It is difficult to see the ones I
C
Love so close to death


G
All their infections and procedures
C
And the will to live at all in question
A
Can I not accept that my own
C
Problems are so small?


G
You took my hand when you woke up
C
I had been crying in the darkness
A
We all die alone but I am so, so
C
glad that you are here

A
You whispered “We are so much bigger on the
C
inside, you, me, everybody
A
Some day when you’re lying where I
G
am, you’ll finally get it truly"


A
We are so much bigger
C
Than another one can ever see
A
Trying is the point of life
G
So don’t stop trying

Promise me.
