Standard tuning.
C G
He left a card, a bar of soap
Am F
And a scrubbing brush next to a note
C G Am F
That said use these down to your bones,
C G
And before i knew I had shiny skin
Am F
And it felt easy being clean like him
C G Am F
I thought this one knows better than I do,
pre-chorus:
Dm F G
A triangle trying to squeeze thru a circle,
Dm F
he tried to cut me so I'd fit
Chorus
G C
Doesnt that sound familiar,
G
Doesnt that his too close to home
Am
Doesnt that make you shiver
F
The way things could have gone
G C
Doesnt that feel peculiar
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/h/higgins_missy/scar_crd_ver_2.html ]
G
That everyone wants a little more
Am
And so that I do remember
F
To never go that far
G C
Could you leave me with a scar
Verse 2

B
Bad fruit nobody buys
A F

The first half of the last chorus is just guitar, I like to play the chords like this:
C 0 3 2 0 1 0
C/B? X 2 0 0 3 0 (Instead of G)
? X 0 2 0 1 3 (Instead of Am, not sure what to call it)
F X 3 3 2 1 1
Then the normal chords for the last part.

I'm self-taught, so I have no idea what to call the two chords in the last chorus - sorry!
