The moment that I step outside So many reasons For me to run and hide I can't do the little things I hold so dear 'Cause it's all those little things That I fear Bm A 'Cause I am just a girl G A I'd rather not be Bm A 'Cause they won't let me drive G A Late at night Bm A I'm just a girl G A Guess I'm some kind of freak Bm A 'Cause they all sit and stare G A With their eyes Bm A I'm just a girl G A Take a good look at me Bm A A Just your typical prototype G C (the G and C are palm muted) Oh...I've had it up to here! G C (G and C muted) Oh...I am making myself clear? I'm just a girl I'm just a girl in the world... That's all that you'll let me be! Bm A G A I'm just a girl, living in captivity Bm Your rule of thumb A G A Makes me worry some Bm A G A I'm just a girl, what's my destiny? Bm What I've succumbed to A G A Is making me numb Bm A G A I'm just a girl, my apologies Bm A G A What I've become is so burdensome Bm A G A I'm just a girl, lucky me Bm A G A Twiddle-dum there's no comparison G C (G's and C's muted throughout) Oh...I've had it up to! G C Oh...I've had it up to! G C Bm Oh...I've had it up to here! (slow down on the last G and let the final Bm ring out) I don't have the album with me right now, so the timing for the chorus may be a little off.
