(No Capo)
D
They like their dominos, their sweet and low, their cookis cutter queens
A
Simple syrup over doze, and their cotton candy dreams
D G
Little pink package you put me in, serving it up like saccharin
D A D
Always had a bitter taste to me
[Chorus]
And all the boys say
D
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme some of that sugar
A
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme something sweet
D
They want my sugar and spice, and everything nice
G
And they're begging for a taste of my cherry pie
D A D
But I'm never never never never ever gone give 'em a piece
D
Mama always told me that it takes a little bit of honey
A
If you wanna attract yourself a bee
D G
But I kinda like it with a little sting, I'm gonna make 'em buzz when they hear me sing
D A D
And they'll swarm around me like I was a queen
[Chorus]
And all the boys say
D
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme some of that sugar
A
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme something sweet
D
They want my sugar and spice, and everything nice
G
And they're begging for a taste of my cherry pie
D A D
But I'm never never never never ever gone give 'em a piece
Bm D
Don't you go a changing, 'cause they only like you one way
G Abdim
Oh, but this girl you see, she's just pieces of me
A
And I'm more than just a topping
Not your marshmallow frosting on your Betty Crocker chocolate cake
[Chorus]
And all the boys say
D
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme some of that sugar
A
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme something sweet
D
They want my sugar and spice, and everything nice
G
And they're begging for a taste of my cherry pie
D A D
But I'm never never never never ever gone give 'em a piece
D A D
No, I'm never never never never ever gonna give them a piece
A D
No, I'm never never never never ever --- gonna give them a piece
Outro.: / / / |(D) No, never |(D) |(D) -----
