the story starts when it was hot and it was summer
C G
and , i had it all; i had him right there where i wanted him
Am F
she came along , got him along , and let’s hear the applause
C * G *
she took him faster than you can say sabotage
Am F
i never saw it coming , nor had i suspected it
C G
i underestimated just who i was dealing with
Am F
she had to know the pain was beating on me like a drum
C * G *
she underestimated just who she was stealing from

G ( building intensity )

Am F
she’s not a saint and she’s not what you think
C G
she’s an actress , whoa
Am F
she’s better known for the things that she does

Am F C G

Am F
she lives her life like it’s a party and she’s on the list
C G
she looks at me like i’m a trend and she’s so over it
Am F
i think her ever present frown is a little troubling
C * G *
and , she thinks i’m psycho cause i like to rhyme her name with things , but
Am F
sophistication isn’t what you wear , or who you know
C G
or pushing people down to get you where you wanna go
Am F
oh they didn’t teach you that in prep school , so it’s up to me
C * G *
but no amount of vintage dresses gives you dignity

Am F
she’s not a saint and she’s not what you think
C G
she’s an actress , whoa
Am F
she’s better known for the things that she does
C G
on the mattress , whoa

soon she’s gonna find
F G
stealing other people’s toys on the playground
