This song is from the album FROOT(2015), released on Mar 16, 2015.
I really liked her accent in this song. I don’t know if it is her Welsh accent or something, but the accent in this song is really enjoyable. The production felt great, and the vocal effects were pretty good as well. The kick and the snare were pretty impressive, while the background music had a nice vibe to it.

[VERSE]
Dm                     F          C
Sometimes I think I'm not that strong
Dm                        F       Bb
But there's a force that carries me on
Dm                       F        C
Sick of my small heart, made of steel
Dm                        F     Bb
Sick of those wounds that never heal
[PRE-CHORUS]
Dm               C              F Bb
'Cause I have lived my life in debt
Dm       C      F      Bb
I've spent my days in deep regret
Dm         C           F Bb
Yeah, I've been living in the red
Dm     C          F      Bb
Oh, 'cause I can't forgive and I can't forget

Yeah, it's time to forget
[VERSE]
Dm           F         C
Ever since I can remember
Dm                 F       Bb
Life was like a tipping scale
Dm         F        C
Like an abacus I played with
Dm              F      G
Counting every win and fail
[PRE-CHORUS]
Dm               C              F Bb
'Cause I have lived my life in debt
Dm       C      F      Bb
I've spent my days in deep regret

[BRIDGE]
Bb
To be letting go
C
Oh baby, you know
Dm       F
What I'm talking about
Bb                 C
Got nothing to lose and nothing to prove
Dm   F G Bb
Oh baby, I'm bowing out
Dm         C      F         Bb
Yeah, I've been dancing with the devil
Dm       C      F       Bb
I love that he pretends to care
Dm        C    F          Bb
If I'll ever get to heaven
Dm     C      F           Bb
When a million dollars gets you there
Dm    C          F        Bb
Oh, all the time that I have wasted
Dm      C       F     Bb
Chasing rabbits down a hole
Dm     C      F          Bb
When I was born to be the tortoise
Dm      C     F       Bb
I was born to walk alone
[INSTRUMENTAL] Dm C F Bb
[CHORUS]

Dm C F Bb
Forget about it
[CHORUS]
Dm C F   Gm Dm C Gm Dm C
Forget, forget, forget
C                  Gm
Ain't no time to regret
C                   Dm
Yeah, it's time to forget
Dm    C       F       Bb
I'm gonna leave the past behind
Dm   C          F        Bb
I've had enough, I'm breaking free
Dm     C       F      Bb
No pressing stop, erase, rewind
Dm       C           F       Bb
That chain of thought that followed me
Dm      C     F         Bb
I've put my money where my mouth is
Dm        C       F      Bb
For the first time in my life
Dm        C      F      Bb
I've made mistakes, but I believe that
Dm      C   F            Bb
Everything was worth the fight
Dm     C         F       Bb
'Cause in the end, the road is long
Dm    C        F          Bb
But only 'cause it makes you strong
Dm         C           F         Bb
It's filled with peaks and twists and turns
Dm         C       F            Bb    Dm
Sometimes you have to learn to forget about it
