Melanie Martinez - A Million Men Chords

CAPO 6
Intro: E C G B x2

VERSE 1:
E           C                          G
Miss Maggie was way too young to understand,
             B
Why she got thrown into someone else's hands,
E        C                G     B
Why she woke up to strange men,
E                  C                            G
They tore her to pieces and she couldn't comprehend,
             B                                   E
Why she was locked up in a basement filled with men,
                    C
Should've gone to school,
               G       B
Instead she did them.


PRE-CHORUS:
E
Don't touch me,
C
I'm fragile,
G                 B
I'm bitter in my heart.
E
Mama sold me
C
For candy,
G                         B
And I was ruined from the start.


CHORUS:
E                                   C
Why do you have to sell me to those mean old men?
     G                            B
They cut me up in places I don't even understand,
      E                           C
It's normalcy to me, but how will my friends understand?
  G 
I'm five years old,
B                       E     C    G    B
Sleepin' with a million men.

   
      (CONTINUE THE SAME PATTERN THROUGHOUT THE SONG)


VERSE 2:
E         C                      G
All grown up and her body has decayed,
              B                          E
All those promiscuous games she had to play,
 C                    G                 B
Oh, she skipped the jungle-jungle-gym phase.

E                C                         G
She's tryin' to look at things in a bright way,
                 B                                   E
Sees the a light peekin' through the end of the hallway,
  C                G           B
No, she's tryna tryna tryna escape...


PRE-CHORUS
E
I'm runnin'
C
Full force, dear
G                            B
But it's harder when you're bones,
E
I'm weak-kneed
C
But I'm flyin'
G                 B
Out of this hell hole.


CHORUS:
E                          C
Why do you have to sell me to those mean old men?
     G                    B
They cut me up in places I don't even understand,
      E                   C
It's normalcy to me, but how will my friends understand?
  G 
I'm ten years old,
B                       E     C    G    B
Runnin' from a million men.
            E       C       G       B
A million men


BRIDGE:
C                            E
Finally the light is comin' close,
C                    E
No turning back, run full force,
C                        E   
Angels swoop down and grab me,
   C
And now I'm safe away,
                         B
From the million men who raised me.



CHORUS:
E                                   C
Why do you have to sell me to those mean old men?
     G                            B
They cut me up in places I don't even understand,
      E                  C
It's normalcy to me, how will my boyfriend understand?
  G 
I'm seventeen
    B            E     C    G    B
With a history of a million men.

          E     C     G     B
A million men.

A million men,
A million men,
A million,
A million men.

A million men,
A million men,
A million,
A million men.

A million men...
