Takes One To Know One Chords

(ver. 1)
Maria Mena
No Capo

Intro: Em

Em
You've lived a haunted life
Bm
I've tried to imagine how I'd feel
B
If I was thrown into the public eye
                       Em
Before my wounds had healed
Em
The way you flashed us with your
Bm                              B
Scars and told us about your rules

Like we were students in your
                             Em
"how-to-be-dramatic" little school
Em
Now I can understand how
Bm                            B
After all that you've been through

You'd lock yourself inside
                                   Em
Waiting for us to come and rescue you

But what I can't fathom is
Bm
While imprisoned in yourself
B
You wouldn't ever take a look around
                     Em
Just blame everyone else

Em  -  F#  -  F#m  -  Em
Em  -  F#  -  F#m  -  Em

Em                         Bm
Pulling the "look-at-me-I'm-hurt" card
                               B
Got you friends that wouldn't dare

Question any little tantrum
                                    Em
No, halfway – they would meet you there
Em                         Bm
Your lover fears your reactions
                          B
He's like a puppy on a leash
He doesn't tread outside your boundaries
                   Em
Without saying "please"
Em
Now I can understand how
Bm
You’d be scared to trust again
B
Seeing how fame would be a magnet
                           Em
For attention seeking friends
Em
But what I can't fathom is
Bm
If your friends lie to keep you calm
B
You wouldn’t ever ask yourself
                      Em
Who they go that idea from

Em  -  F#  -  F#m  -  Em
Em  -  F#  -  F#m  -  Em
Gm  -  A  -  Am  -  Gm
Gm  -  A  -  Am  -  Gm

Em
I could be scared of you
                        B
I would cater to your needs
                                                        Em
Your dominating ways, my overwhelming fear of conflict feeds
Em                              Bm
But I've learned not to get involved
                            B
By admitting more about myself
                                                          Em
Takes one to know one honey, trust me take a look inside yourself

Em  -  F#  -  F#m  -  Em
Em  -  F#  -  F#m  -  Em
Em  -  F#  -  F#m  -  Em
Em  -  F#  -  F#m  -  Em
Em  -  F#  -  F#m  -  Em
Em  -  F#  -  F#m  -  Em
