[Verse]
E A B
I heard you say you were notorious and glorious
E A
Well I say that's a funny name
B
For a girl I went to high school with
A E
Who used to give me lunch time change
A B E A
And show all the boys the back seats of your daddy's car
B
I can't believe your stories
A E
Nobody grows that far
[Chorus]
A B
And you lied and I cried I was mystified
E A
When I was 16 yes its true
B
But there's one thing that I'm sure of
A E
I'll never be as old as you
[Verse]
E A B
I got a parakeet missionary among canaries
E A
Who always tells the same dirty joke
B
About he holy ghost and his roman gang
A E
The time they did too much coke
A B E A
An walked around holy city laughing at statutes of saints
B
I told my bird to quit it
A E
Canaries usually faint
[Chorus]
A B
And you lied and I cried I was mystified
E A
When I was 16 yes its true
B
But there's one thing that I'm sure of
A E
I'll never be as old as you
[Verse]
E A B
I get local delivery of your misery
E A
Even the milkman leaves a note
B
And the neighbors sure were very shocked
A E
About your drawbridge and your moat
A B E A
I mean once a night is enough for all that chivalry stuff
B
Baby put down your armor
A E
Your pokers only a bluff
[Chorus]
A B
And you lied and I cried I was mystified
E A
When I was 16 yes its true
B
But there's one thing that I'm sure of
A E
I'll never be as old as you
[Outro]
A B
And you lied and I cried I was mystified
E A
When I was 16 yes its true
B
But there's one thing that I'm sure of
A E
I'll never, never, never, never, be as old as you
