Just A Number

Intro A D E D 

A 
This weekend I went to the doctor 
D 
And they checked my weight like they do every time 
E 
Took off my sweatshirt 

Stepped on the scale 
D 
Looked away and closed my eyes 
A 
I guess the nurse didn't see me 
D 
Cause she said it out loud 
    E                     D 
And I felt like I couldn't breathe 
A                              D 
I was still the same size as I was just before she said it 
E                       D 
But my body felt heavier to me 

          A 
It's just a number 
       D 
But old habits die so hard 
        E                      D 
But I blame Tumblr and the year 2013 
     A                D                E 
And my mother for as far back as I can remember 
         D 
Talking shit about her body 

A D 
           E            D 
But it's just a number

A 
This weekend I went out shopping 
D 
Retail therapy, been a long week 
E 
Went through the sweatshirts 

And through the dresses 
D 
And I grabbed a couple jeans 
A                        D 
But the 6 didn't fit me, wouldn't go over my knees 
E                        D 
The 8 was still a bit too tight 
 A                     D 
I tried to ignore that a year ago those would have fit 
    E                              D 
And I went out and grabbed a bigger size 

          A 
It's just a number 
       D 
But old habits die so hard 
        E                      D 
And I blame Tumblr and the year 2013 
     A                D                E          D 
And my mother for as far back as I can remember 

Outro 

    A 
Oh how am I supposed to love you 
D 
When you make it so hard 
E                       D 
In every mirror all I see are the stretchmarks and scars 
A                               D                       E 
And will I always feel like I'm too much but not enough? 
                       D                           A 
I wish I could believe that it's really just a number 
         D 
But old habits die so hard 
         E 
And I blame Tumblr 
         D       A 
And the year 2013
