[Intro] D G Bm A D G Bm A [Verse 1] D G Bought a bunch of makeup Bm A Tryna cover up my face D G I started to skip lunch Bm A Stopped eatin' cake on birthdays D G I bought a new prescription Bm A To try and stay calm D 'Cause there's always G somethin' missin' Bm There's always somethin' in the mirror that A I think looks wrong

[Chorus]
D G Bm
When pretty isn't pretty enough
A
What do you do?
D G Bm
And everybody's keepin' it up
A
So you think it's you
D
I could change up my body,
G
and change up my face
Bm
I could try every lipstick
A D
in every shade
G
But I'd always feel the same
Bm A
'Cause pretty isn't pretty
D G Bm A
enough anyway
[Verse 2]
D G
You can win the battle
Bm A
But you'll never win the war
D G
You fix thе things you hated
Bm A
And you'd still feel so insecure
Em
And I try to ignorе it,
D
but it's everything I see
G
It's on the poster on the wall,
A
it's in the shitty magazines
Em
It's in my phone,

it's in my head, it's in
D
the boys I bring to bed
G
It's all around,
it's all the time,
A
I don't know why I even try
[Chorus]
D
When pretty isn't
G Bm
pretty enough
A
What do you do?
D G Bm
And everybody's keepin' it up
A
So you think it's you
D
I could change up my body,
G
and change up my face
Bm
I could try every lipstick
A D
in every shade
G
But I'd always feel the same
Bm A
'Cause pretty isn't pretty
enough
