Tom: D

G
My friend drove me to the party
Bm                    G
In her red velvet dress
                             Bm
She's always looking at her best
                         G
For the tall and pretty boys
                         Bm
I'm shaking to the core now
                             A
These things get the best of me
N.C
These goddamn kids can be so mean

G                                           Bm
Now here comes James with the long brown hair
                                 G
A sense of bitterness fills the air
                                  Bm
He sees me standing next to the girls
N/C
and he shakes his head
G                        Bm
So smug he towers over me
                                        A
I'm scared he's gonna try and cause a scene
                  Bm
So I tell him patiently

[Chorus]
G                A
It took me a while
Bm                G
To be where I am now
                   D
I learned how to fight back
                      Bm   G
You don't even wanna know how
          D
He then smirks slowly
A       Bm      Em
And he pats my back
                                D
he says 'the girls want a real boy'
                  Em
'and you're not that'
                        D
'the girls want a real boy'
N.C
'and you're not that'

                  Em
Now everybody's dancing
                               G
And I'm just sitting in the corner
                       D
With my vodka orange juice
                          Em
I never should have come here
                          G
But I don't have a ride home
                        D
And it's no offense to you

[Verse 2]
G                          Bm
Now I don't blame you, James
N.C
But I can't help the way I am
G
I didn't sign up for this life
Bm
but I'm doing the best that I can
G                       Bm
And It gets hard sometimes
           A
Boy I've tried to commit suicide
N.C
multiple times

[Chorus]
G                A
It took me a while
    D            G
To be where I am now
                   A
I learned how to fight back
                           G
You don't even wanna know how
                            A
Still, I look in the mirror
     Bm            Em
And another looks back
                                  D
she says ' the girls want a real boy'
         Em                          D
and she said 'the girls want a real boy'

[Chorus]
                   Em
Now everybody's dancing
                              G
And I'm just sitting in the corner
                       D
With my vodka orange juice
                          Em
I never should have come here
                          G
But I don't have a ride home
                        D
And it's all thanks to you

                   Em
Now everybody's dancing
                              G
And I'm just sitting in the corner
                       D
With my vodka orange juice
                          Em
I never should have come here
                         G
But I don't have a ride home
                        D
And it's all thanks to you
