Verse 1: E Pretty girls don't cry, they know exactly what they want. E Pretty girls walk by, with eyes that smile faces that haunt. E I watch them walk I wonder, turn away I try but I can't find the words to say I know that you E don't love me but I'm watching you.
Verse 2: E Pretty girls don't cry, they know exactly what to do. E Pretty girls walk by, but they won't ever smile at you. E I watch them walk I wonder, turn away I try but I can't find the words to say I know that you E don't love me but I'm watching you. Hit it!
