[E]
[A]
[D] Cut them out in [C#m] the shapes that we wanted
[D] You can't stop now, cause [C#m] it's already started
Pull them out, let them hold on together
[E] Hold on together
Hold on together [A] in life
[F] And if there [N] never really was [A] such a look in life
Who [E] would have the time to hold my hand?
I might never have [A] made it, but I did
And we may [E]
look the same, but we got different names
And different [A]
faces, yes we do
Let [D]
this light stand [C#m] alone, all together
[D]
By ourselves, just [C#m] as light as a feather
[D]

Bring out the scissors now, cut out the doors
Hold out the light and see it one and all
[E]
Put down the phone and give us a call
And [A]
bring the hearts [E] and the yellow stars
I can see it, cause [A] they're on my ceiling
And they glow in the dark
[E] Shine now, let the light rain down
[A] To my resting place all over my face
[D] Sweep them up [C#m] and give them a [D] name
From down here, [C#m]
they're all just the same
I'm [D] looking up [C#m] with my head on my pillow
[E] Head on my pillow, head on my pillow
[A] I wanna be [E] a paper doll
[A] To hold to the chain [E] that cracks us all
[A] And I don't mind being [E] just like my friends
[A] As long as I don't [E] get spunk on my head
[A] Cause I wanna be [E] a paper doll
[A] To hold to the chain [E] that cracks us all
