[Verse 1]
C
I was never pretty
Not even as a child
These gaps between my teeth
They showed up when I smiled
F
My hair always stood straight up
C
Like it was terrified to fall
G
In school it wasn't friends
F
Or charisma that I lacked
G
But in elementary pictures
F
They always put me in the back
C
And I wasn't tall
[Verse 2]
C
Oh these guns of mine never did arrive
Didn't matter what I'd lift
My acne was invincible
My dandruff was no gift
F
My voice was high as a lady's
C
And it's still that way today
G
But you know I'm glad I waited
F
That is, I was made to wait
G
'Cause if I'd been taken
F C
I would have missed the best date in the world
[Chorus]
F G C
She's got a heart that's bigger than her hair
F G C
She might never be a model but who cares
F G Am
She's one cloud and some wings from bein' an angel
Dm F G
And who knows we might make
C
Something beautiful
[Verse 3]
C
Well I have reached maturity
Finally grew into my fro
I guess my ears they missed the news
'Cause they just keep a growin'
F
I have some great, great dance moves
C
They never seem to move the girls
G
But I always hope I'd find the one
F
Who'd really digged my look
G
And one night at the comic store
F
We both grabbed the same book
C
One about dragons
[Verse 4]
C
Well I met her down at Charley's
She spilled her drink on me
She laughed and said that wasn't usually
How she liked her tea
F
And somehow we got caught up in an evenin'
C
Full of kisses and romancin'
G
It wasn't really her perfume
F
That made me think her sweet
G
But more how she didn't mind
F
Me stepping on her feet
C
When we were dancin'
[Chorus]
F G C
She's got a laugh that's louder than her pants
F G C
She might never walk a runway or do a pole dance
F G Am
She's one cloud and some wings from bein' an angel
Dm F G
And who knows we might make
C
Something beautiful
[Verse 5]
C
My friends have all been telling me
I ain't looked this good in years
Nothing like a woman
Make you wash behind your ears
F
She calls me stinky
C
I call her ferret face or MO
G
But it ain't all fun and pet names
F
No, we've been known to fight
G
About whose better lookin'
F
But it never lasts all night
C
On we go
[Chorus]
F G C
She's got a smile that's brighter than her nails
F G C
She might never win a pageant as a female
F G
She's mine and we might some day
Am
Have a little one of our own
Dm F G
And who knows we might make
C
Something beautiful
