[Intro]
G C G C Em C Em C
[Verse 1]
G C
Peter, Can I go back home?,
G C
I flew here under false pretence I thought it would be fun,
Em C
But the lost boys have moved away and one of thems locked up,
Em
I know you think you’re still a child but,
C G
I couldn’t give a f***, You’re twenty one,

Oh Peter, I can dream no more,

I’ve been chasing all of yours I’ve forgotten what it was,
Em C Em C
That I wanted, That I want,
[Chorus]
G C
No I won’t be your doll,
G C Em
So please don’t ask me to, You see I don’t look so good,
C G
In yellow, like other dolls they do,
C G C
[Verse 3]
G C G
Oh Peter, I am not naïve, I see the way you look at her,
C Em
And you don’t do that for me, oh it must be love,

And we both know its not with us,

Oh Peter, he walks beside the lake, While I lay beside,

An empty space, waiting for the sirens, just waiting for,
Em C
the sirens,
[Chorus 2]
G C G C
Oh I won’t be your doll, so please don’t you ask me to,
Em C G
I won’t shut my little painted face, like all your other dolls
C G C G
they do, like all your other dolls they do.
