Maisie Peters - You’re Just a Boy (And I’m Kinda the Man)

[Intro]
A B A

[Verse 1]
A B A
I take in clowns like a one woman circus
A B A
You’re kind of awful, but you’re not awful on purpose
E
Gave a two word response when I was having a breakdown
B
Oh, Mr. Bruce Wayne, where is that cape now?

[Pre-Chorus]
A
Don’t you know that you’re losin’ this?
(Is that what you want?)
A
Don’t you know that you’re losin’ this?
(I’m ‘bout to be gone…)
E
Don’t you see what I’m givin’ up and you cant’t even text
B
Don’t be surprised now I’m givin’ up, God what did you expect?

*cue cowbell solo*

[Chorus]
E
I’m on a one-way trip to take over the world
B
You could’ve come but your head’s in the sand
F#m
What’s a girl gonna do when she’s in love with you?
A
But you’re just a boy and I’m kinda the man
E
I’m on a one-way trip to take over the world
B
You could’ve come, babe, I held out my hand
F#m
Yeah it’s sad and it’s true and I’m in love with you
A
But you’re just a boy and I’m kinda the man

[Verse 2]
A B A
You were my best friend, my shoulder to lean on
A B A
But you pushed me out quicker than it took me to put my jeans on
E
And maybe you’re lost, and just can’t see what you have
B
But I’m not gonna wait, now I know better than that

[Pre-Chorus]
A
Don’t you know that you’re losin’ this?
(Is that what you want?)
A
Don’t you know that you’re losin’ this?
(I’m ‘bout to be gone…)
E
Don’t you see what you’re givin’ up? I’m not holding my breath
B
You won’t see what you’re givin’ up ‘till I’ve already left

*cowbell pt.2*

[Chorus]
E
I’m on a one-way trip to take over the world

You could’ve come but your head’s in the sand

What’s a girl gonna do when she’s in love with you?

I’m on a one-way trip to take over the world
