Just A Girl
No Doubt
D D/B D/Bb D/A (x4)
D D/B D/Bb D/A D D/B D/Bb D/A
Take this pink ribbon off my eyes
I'm exposed, and it's no big surprise
Don't you think I know exactly where I stand
This world is forcing me to hold your hand
B2 A2 G A2
Cause I'm just a girl - little ol' me
Don't let me out of your sight
I'm just a girl, all pretty and petite
So don't let me have any rights
G C D D/B D/Bb D/A
Oh~~ I've had it up to here!
D D/B D/Bb D/A
The moment that I step outside
So many reasons for me to run and hide
I can't do the little things I hold so dear
Cause it's all those little things that I fear
Cause I'm just a girl - I'd rather not be
Cause they won't let me drive late at night
I'm just a girl, guess I'm some kind of freak
Cause they all sit and stare with their eyes
I'm just a girl - take a good look at me
Just your typical prototype
Oh~~ I've had it up to here! B2 A2 G A2 (x4)
Oh~~ Am I making myself clear?
I'm just a girl
I'm just a girl in the world
That's all you'll let me be!
I'm just a girl living in captivity
Your rule of thumb makes me worry some
I'm just a girl - what's my destiny
What I've succumbed to is making me numb
I'm just a girl - my apologies
What I've become is so burdensome
I'm just a girl - lucky me
Tweedle-dum, there's no comparison
G C
Oh~~ I've had it up to
G C
Oh~~ I've had it up to
G C B2
Oh~~ I've had it up to here...
