Shamir - Straight Boy Chords

[Intro]
G

[Verse 1]
G                    D
Can someone tell me why
Em        D
I always seem to let these
G                    D
Straight boys run my life?
Em           D
I guess I'm just too nice to–

[Refrain 1]
Em
Run away or stay where we have
C                                     Em
Who I trust and who's surrounding me and
G
Hope that there's any good left in this life
Em
And trust I give isn't given to me
         C
And the hate inside is all I see
Em         G                             D     G
And you're clinging to a false sense of pride

[Verse 2]
G                   D
Can someone tell me why
Em         D
It always seems to seem like
G                      D
All straight boys care about
Em                D
Is how they're viewed from the outside?

[Refrain 2]
Em
'Cause being true is not their thing
       C
Oh, it eats them up internally
Em          G                                    D    G
Then they take it out on people like me all the time
     Em
They say I'm brave for being true
     C
But act like it's not something they can do
            G                              D
But they're clinging to a false sense of pride

[Verse 3]
Am            C
Don't tell me you don't see
     G             D
The pool of contradiction
Am             C
Don't tell me you don't see
      G               D
The flood in your convictions

[Refrain 1]
Em
Oh, run away or stay where we have
C
Who I trust and who's surrounding me and
G                                        D
Hope that there's any good left in this life
Em
And trust I give isn't given to me
C
And the hate inside is all I see
Em          G                    D        G
And you're clinging to a false sense of pride
