Verse 1
E
She don't know what she wants to be
E
With all the pictures in the magazines
E
Holding hands when she's mad at me
E
'cause she don't wanna go, don't wanna go

I met her at Anthropologie
E
Her purple boots and her golden dreams
E
Standing there like a Tennessee queen

Singing don't look at me, don't look at me
