This is the way Nina plays it.
If you watch live videos these are the chords you'll see.
For the G's in the prechorus and outro of chorus just move the F chord up two frets
(so it's beginning at the third fret)
Am: 002210
C: 032010
F: 033210
G: 320033
G*: 055430
Capo 6
Am G F
She puts her pen to paper
Am G F
Lines across their hearts
Am G F
You didn't want to erase her

You left her standing in the dark.
Am G F
This time she's praying for silence
Am G F
Hoping that you would understand
Am G F
She's just building these roadworks
Am G F
So that it's clearer when they land.
F G* Am
You can't still own what you let go
F G* Dm
What don't you understand?
