  			Intro: Bb F Bb F 
Verse: 
Bb  			                    F 
I saw a spider I didn’t scream, 
Bb 
‘Cause I can belch the alphabet, 
	F 
Just double dog dare me, 
       Bb			                  F 
And I chose guitar over ballet, 
	Bb					                                   F 
And I take these suckers down ‘cause they just get in my way. 

Dm	         A		      Bb 
The way you look at me, 
		             G 
Is kind of like a little sister, 
Dm  	         A			Bb 
Rubbed by your goodbyes, 
		     G 
And it leaves me nothing but blisters. 

     F			     A 
So I don’t want to be just one of the boys, 
Bb 
One of the guys, 
C#					Bb 
Just give me a chance to prove to you tonight that, 
F		   A 
I just want to be one of the girls, 
Bb 
Pretty in pearls, 
C#		Bb 
Not one of the boys. 

F 

Verse: 
So over the summer something changed, 
I started reading Seventeen and shaving my legs, 
And I studied Lolita religiously, 
And I walked right into school and caught you staring at me. 

‘Cause I know what you know, 
But now you’re going to have to take a number, 
It’s okay, maybe one day but not until you give me my diamond ring. 

F			     A 
‘Cause I don’t want to be one of the boys, 
Bb 
One of your guys, 
C#					Bb 
Just give me a chance to prove to you tonight that, 
F		                      A 
I just want to be a homecoming queen, 
Bb 
Pinup poster dream, 
C#		Bb            F 
Not one of the boys. 

Bb	          A	   Dm	                   G 
I want to be a flower, not a dirty weed, 
Bb	           A	           Dm		          G 
I want to smell like roses, not a baseball team, 
Bb		A	            Dm				                       G 
And I swear maybe one day you’re going to want to, make out, make out, make out with me 

     F			                 A 
So I don’t want to be one of the boys,

Give me a chance to prove to you tonight that,

I just want to be one of the girls, 
Bb 
So pretty in pearls, 
C#		Bb 
Not one of the boys.

F      C#	Bb	F 
Oh, one of the boys.
