One Of The Boys

(verse)
Bb                                          F
I saw a spider I didn’t scream,
Bb
'Cause I can belch the alphabet,
        F
Just double dog dare me,
       Bb                                         F
And I chose guitar over ballet,
        Bb                                                                         F
And I take these suckers down 'cause they just get in my way.

Dm               A                    Bb
The way you look at me,
                             G
Is kind of like a little sister,
Dm               A                      Bb
Rubbed by your goodbyes,
                     G
And it leaves me nothing but blisters.

     F                       A
So I don’t want to be just one of the boys,
Bb
One of the guys,
C#                                      Bb
Just give me a chance to prove to you tonight that,
F                  A
I just want to be one of the girls,
Bb
Pretty in pearls,
C#              Bb
Not one of the boys.

(verse)
So over the summer something changed,
I started reading Seventeen and shaving my legs,
And I studied Lolita religiously,
And I walked right into school and caught you staring at me.

'Cause I know what you know,
But now you’re going to have to take a number,
It’s okay, maybe one day but not until you give me my diamond ring.

F                            A
'Cause I don’t want to be one of the boys,
Bb
One of your guys,
C#                                      Bb
Just give me a chance to prove to you tonight that,
F                                     A
I just want to be a homecoming queen,
Bb
Pinup poster dream,
C#              Bb            F
Not one of the boys.

Bb                A        Dm                      G
I want to be a flower, not a dirty weed,
Bb                 A               Dm                     G
I want to smell like roses, not a baseball team,
Bb              A                   Dm                                                 G
And I swear maybe one day you’re going to want to, make out, make out, make out with me

     F                                   A
So I don’t want to be one of the boys,
Bb
One of the guys,
C#                                                  Bb
Give me a chance to prove to you tonight that,
F                               A
I just want to be one of the girls,
Bb
So pretty in pearls,
C#              Bb
Not one of the boys.
F     C#                Bb
Oh, one of the guys.
F      C#       Bb      F
Oh, one of the boys.
