Intro:
[whisper]
Here you go
motherfuckers...
Verse 1:
B
Do you want to
E
come to a party
My friends picked me
C#m E
up in their truck at 11:30
B
These things at a frat house
E
but the people are cool there
C#m
Reluctant I followed but
E
I never dreamed there
B
Would be someone there who
E
would catch my attention
C#m
I wasn't out searching
E
for love or affection
B
So I paid my three and
E
the girls got in free
C#m
Shine the beer for tequila
E F# B
and we headed into the party
Verse 2:
B
And then in the backyard
E
some terrible ska band
C#m
Someone in the background
E
was doing a keg stand
B
This place is so lame all
E
these girls look the same
C#m
All these guys have no game
E
I wish I would have stayed
B
In my bed back at home
E
watching TV alone
C#m
Where I'd put on some porn
E
or have sex on the phone
B
Far from people I hate down
E
from anywhere state
C#m
Trying to intoxicate girls
E
to give them head
F# B
after the party
Refrain 1:
B C#m
And then I saw
E
her standing there
F#
With green eyes and
B
long blond hair
C#m E
She wasn't wearing underwear
F#
at least I prayed that
B C#m
She might be the one
E F#
maybe we'd have some fun
B C#m
Maybe we'd watch the sun rise
E
But that night I learned
F#
some girls try too hard

Chorus 1:
B
na na na
E
na na na
C#m
na na na
E
Some girls
try too hard
B
na na na
E
na na na
C#m
na na na
E
Some girls
B
try too hard
E
to impress
C#m
With the way
E
that they dress
B
With those things
E
on their chests
C#m
And the things
E
they suggest to me
Verse 3:
B
I couldn't believe what
E
this lady was saying
C#m
The names she was dropping
E
the games she was playing
B
She dated this guy who
E
now rides for Black Flys
C#m
How she's down with Iwise
E
well constructed disguise
B
Now I'd rather go dateless than
E
stay here and hate this
C#m
Her volume of makeup her
E
fake tits were tasteless
B
So I said I'd call her
E
but never would bother
C#m
Until I got turned down by
E F# B
another girl at a party
Refrain 2:
B C#m
So when you see
E
her standing there
F#
With green eyes and
B
long blonde hair
She won't be
C#m E
wearing underwear
F#
and you'll discover
B C#m
This girl's not the one
E F#
and she'll never be fun
B C#m
You should just turn and run
E
Because you'll find out that
F#
some girls try too hard
Chorus 2:
B
na na na
E
na na na
C#m
na na na
E
Some girls
try too hard
B
na na na
E
na na na
C#m
na na na
E
Some girls
B
try too hard
E
to impress
C#m
With the way
E
that they dress
B
With those things
E
on their chests
C#m
And the things
E
they suggest to me
B
na na na
E
na na na
C#m
na na na
E
Some girls
try too hard
B
na na na
E
na na na
C#m

E
Some girls
B(hold)
try too hard
