Bigger Boys And Stolen Sweethearts

[Intro] A9  A  A6  F#  F

A                      F#m
There's always somebody taller
F
With more of a wit
A                        F#m
And he's equipped to enthrall her
F
And her friends think he's fit
A                        F#m
And you just can't measure up though
F
You don't have a prayer
A                      F#m
Wishing that you'd made the most of her
F
When she was there
E
They've got engaged
F#m
There's no intention of a wedding
D
He's pinched your bird
F
And he'd probably kick your head in

A             D
Bigger Boys and Stolen Sweethearts
A                D
Oh, You're better off without her anyway
A              D
You said you wasn't sad to see her go
A               D
Yeah, but I know you were though

A                      F#m
Now you don’t know what she’s up to
F
You can only assume
A                            F#m
If she’s not in the front of the shops
F
Then they've gone to his room
A                        F#m
Bet she’s gone round in her school stuff
F
Bet that’s what he likes
A                       F#m
I know you thought she were different
F
And you thought she was nice

E
But she’s not nice
F#m
She’s pretty fucking far from nice
D
She’s looking at you funny
F
Rarely looking at you twice


A             D
Bigger Boys and Stolen Sweethearts
A                D
Oh, You're better off without her anyway
A              D
You said you wasn't sad to see her go
A               D
Yeah, but it's clear you were though

A - F#m - F  x4

A                       F#m
Have you heard what she has been doing?
F
Never did it for me
A                         F#m
He picks her up at the school gate
F
At twenty past three
A                         F#m
She's been with all of the boys
F
But never went very far
A                      F#m
And she wagged English and Science
F
Just to go in his car

E
They've got engaged
F#m
There's no intention of a wedding
D
He's pinched me bird
F
And he'd probably kick my head in oh

E              F#m
Now the girls have grown
               D                         F
Yeah, but I'm sure that they still carry on in similar ways

A             D

A                D
Oh, I'm better off without her anyway
A                D             A
I said I wasn't sad to see her go
       D         Dm        A
Yeah, but I'm only pretending, you know
         D          Dm        A
Yeah, I'm only pretending, you know
         D         Dm        A
I was only pretending, you know
       D         Dm        A
I was only pretending, you know
