  			Verse 1  
D                                                 G 
You wanna walk into the room like that other girl does 

The one that's always making everybody fall in love 
Em                               A 
You see, girl you're a lot like me 

D 
She rearranges all the light in the room 
          G 
So you're always in the shadows 
                               Em 
Well that's what it feels like to you 
           A 
Baby, I've been there too 


Prechorus   
    Em                                       A 
And I know how much it can sometimes hurt 
                  D                            G 
You feel like the whole world has made you the ugly girl 
Em                                      A 
Take it from me that you have to see it first 


Chorus (strummed thru outro) 
              D                                   G 
So before you trade in your summer skin for those high heeled shoes 
                  Em 
To make him wanna be with you 
A 
Let me remind you one more time 
     D                              G 
That maybe you're beautiful but you just can't see 
                 Em 
So why don't you trust me 
A                                D 
They'll see it too you beautiful girl, you 


Verse 2 
You wanna lay the blame on somebody else 
All these tiny little minds that leave you up on a shelf 
But okay, I've seen it done that way 

Just in case nobody ever comes through 
Riding in to come to your rescue 
You still have a chance 
You don't have to be asked to dance 


Prechorus 2 
I know how much you've been dying to say 
"Look how much everybody loves me" 
Guess who gets left when everyone else fades away 


Chorus
