Standard (EADGBE)
There is no way Im looking for a boyfriend
There is no way Im looking for a scene
I need to save some dough
Im a working girl you know
Ill fend attention off I keep to myself
I love my room Im getting used to sleeping
Some nights I really like to lie awake
I hear the midnight birds
The message in their words
The dawn will touch me in a way a boy could never touch
that promise never meant so much to me
You have been warned. Im known to be contrary
Backward at school, I wrote from right to left
Teacher never cared for me
Preacher said a prayer for me
God help the girl. She needs all the help she can get
I see for hours just waiting for his phone call
Ill eat the chocolate hidden in the fridge
Ill play his messages
Analyze his intonation
Please stop me there Im even boring myself
I think of him when Im doing the dishes
I think of him while looking in the sink
This aint no play on words
My love for hims absurd
If he gave me a sign Id think about for a week
Id build it up and then Id tell him: no.
You have been warned. Im known to be contrary
Backward at school, I wrote from right to left
Teacher never cared for me
Preacher said a prayer for me
God help the girl. She needs all the help she can get
G Em repeat
