This TAB should be pretty darn close. I saw STP perform this song on
Leno the
other night so it's quite accurate.

I'm going to put 2 different choruses here. The first chorus is the
close to
actual chords Dean Deleo uses. I think he changes up the order, so
feel free to
interchange the chord shapes how you like. The second chorus is an
easier
version. It's what I played before I saw them perform it on Leno.
Sorry, no
rhythm is implied here. Use your imagination.

Verse:
She turned away, what was she looking at
She was a sour girl the day that she met me
Hey, what are you looking at?
She was a happy girl the day that she left me
She turned away, what was she looking at
She was a sour girl the day that she met me
Hey, what are you looking at?
She was a happy girl when she left me
Chorus:
What would you do?
What would you do if I follow you?
What would you do?
I follow
Verse:
Don't turn away, what are you looking at?
He was so happy on the day that he met her
Say, what are you looking at?
I was a superman, the looks are deceiving
The rollercoaster ride's a lonely one
I pay the ransom note to stop them from steaming
Hey, what are you looking at?
She was a teenage girl when she met me
Chorus:
Bridge: Play intro
The girl got reasons
They all got reasons
Chorus:
Verse:
Hey, what are you looking at?
She was a happy girl the day that she left me
The day that she left me ... The day that she left me
She was a happy girl the day that she left me
The day that she left me ... The day that she left me
She was a happy girl the day that she left me
