Capo on 3
[Intro]
Am x 6
[Verse 1]
Am
When you took me home, you knew who you were taking
F
Not some Debbie debutante, standing in an (Am)apron, frying up your bacon
[Pre-Chorus]
Am
My house and my mouth and my mind get kinda trashy
I've never been to jail, but Hell, I wouldn't put it past me
[Chorus]
Am
So, if you want the girl next door, some Virgin Mary metaphor
F
Your cardboard cutout on the wall, your paper or your Barbie doll
Am
With perfect hair and a perfect dress, I'm really just the perfect mess
F G
And I ain't nothing less or nothing more, so baby, if you want the girl next door
[Post-Chorus]
Am
Then go next door and go right now, and don't look back, don't turn around
F
And don't call me when you get bored, yeah, if you want the girl next door
Am
Then go next door
[Solo]
(Am) (Am) (Am)
[Verse 2]
Am
Sorry, I ain't sorry that I ain't your Marsha Brady, uh-uh
If I ever met her, bet she'd probably
Am
hate me, 'cause you'd wanna date me
[Pre-Chorus]
Am
My heart and my head and my bed can get real twisted
F
And you wouldn't be the first to think you're --- gonna go and fix it
[Chorus]
Am
So, if you want the girl next door, some Virgin Mary metaphor
F
Your cardboard cutout on the wall, your paper or your Barbie doll
Am
With perfect hair and a perfect dress, I'm really just the perfect mess
F G
And I ain't nothing less or nothing more, so baby, if you want the girl next door
[Post-Chorus]
Am
Then go next door and go right now, and don't look back, don't turn around
F
And don't call me when you get bored, yeah, if you want the girl next door
Am
Then go next door
[Solo]
(Am) (Am) (Am)
[Bridge]
G Am
The thing that turns you on is what you wanna change
G F
But you have a better chance of slowing down a train
[Chorus]
Am
If you want the girl next door, some Virgin Mary metaphor
F
Your cardboard cutout on the wall, your paper or your Barbie doll
Am
With perfect hair and a perfect dress, I'm really just the perfect mess
F G
And I ain't nothing less or nothing more, so baby, if you want the girl next door
[Post-Chorus]
Am
Then go next door and go right now, and don't look back, don't turn around
F
And don't call me when you get bored, yeah, if you want the girl next door
Am
Then go next door
[Outro]
