C                                              D
Going down in the same old town down the same street to the same bar
C                                 D
  And the same old faces saying hi and I don't care
C                                    D                               C         D
Going down in the same old bar every night and I don't even order anymore
C                                   D
I am so sick of consequence and the look on your face
C                                 D                               C          D
I am tired of playing defense and I don't even have hockey skates
                               C          D
Don't even have hockey skates

        Am                         C                        G           D
You can meet me at ten thirty, and I won't be there I'll be gone
Am                               C                        G                                   D
We can talk like we are friends, going over it all again, talking about everything I am doing wrong

C                              D      
Do you wish your nose was longer
C                                     D
So you'd have an excuse not to see past it
C                                       D                      C          D
Do you wish that the lights were brighter in the city that you live
C                                   D
I am so sick of consequence and the look on your face
C                                  D                               C          D

Don't even have hockey skates

        Am                         C                        G           D
You can meet me at ten thirty, and I won't be there I'll be gone

And do you think your boys club will crumble, just because of a loud-mouthed girl?
                              Am        C        G         D
Just because of a loud-mouthed girl?
