Intro: G  B  Em  C   (4x) 


Verse 1:
 
G                          B 
  White girl living in the city  
                   Em 
in a big apartment house 
                         C 
She's living with her boyfriend now 
G                     B 
  She drives of every day 
               Em 
for school and work 
she washes dishes now and 
                  C 
watches TV on the pull out couch 


 
G           B         Em 
  But every day's the same  
          C 
but every day's the same 
G           B         Em 
  And every day's the same  
          C 
and every day's the same 
G           B         Em 
  And every day's the same  
          C 
and every day's the same 
G           B         Em  C 
  And every day's the same  


Verse 2:
 
G                              B 
  White girl moves back to the suburbs 
                            Em 
Cause she's finally found a man who 
                  C 
knows how to take care of her 
G                                B 
  They bought the perfect little house 
                      Em 
And the lawns are manicured 
                         C 
And she's never missed a day of work 


(Repeat Chorus 1) 


Verse 3: 
 
G 
  White girl couldn't go 
    B 
off knowing she would 
           Em 
be wasting time 
                   C 
she drowned in the lake last night 
G 
  They found her floating body 
B                             Em 
floating but she still walks around 
                   C 
performing all her daily chores 
G B                  Em 
  oh She still don't know 
     C 
what life's about 
G B                  Em 
  oh She still don't know 
     C 
what life's about 


 
G           B         Em 
  Coz every day's the same  
          C 
but every day's the same 
G           B         Em 
  And every day's the same  
          C 
and every day's the same 
G           B         Em 
  And every day's the same  
          C 
and every day's the same 
G           B         Em  C G 
  And every day's the same
