Chords
E A
Bite your face to spite your nose
E A
17 and a half years old
E A
I'm worrying about my brother finding out
E A
Where's the fun in doing what you're told?
E
I said "No!
B A
Oh give it a rest, I could persuade you
E B
I'm not your typical, stoned 18 year old
A
Give me a night I'll make you.
E B
I know you're looking for salvation in the secular age,
A
But girl I'm not your saviour"
E B
Wrestle to the ground
A
God help me now
[Chorus]
B, F#, E (in between the F# and E, you can slide from the fourth fret to
the sixth, on the D-string, like they do in the song)- repeat throughout
E B A
Cause they're just girls breaking hearts
E B A
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
E B A
But she can't be what you need if she's 17
E B A
They're just girls
E B A
They're just girls
[Verse]
E A
A pair of frozen hands to hold,
E A
Oh she's so southern so she feels the cold,
E
One moment I was tearing off your blouse,
A
Now you're living in my house.
E A
What happened to just messing around?
E B A
I said "Yo, I think I better go; I can't take you.
E B A
You just sit and get stoned with 30 year olds and you think you've made it.
E B A
Well, shouldn't you be fucking with somebody your age instead of making changes?"
E B
Wrestle to the ground
A
God help me now
[Chorus]
E B A
Cause they're just girls breaking hearts
E B A
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
E B A
But she can't be what you need if she's 17
E B A
They're just girls
E B A
They're just girls
[Verse]
A (x2) E B
I told her from the start
A (x2) E B
Destined to be hard
A (x2)
I told her from the start
E B
I'll break your heart
A (x2)
Destined to be hard
E B
Break your heart
E B A
I said "Yo, I think you'd better go; I can't take you.
E B
I know you're looking for salvation in the secular age,
A
But girl I'm not your saviour.
E B A
Well, shouldn't you be fucking with somebody your age instead of making changes?"
E B
Wrestle to the ground
A
God help me now
[Chorus]
(Chorus progression as before: B, F#, E, with the slide)
E B A
Cause they're just girls breaking hearts
E B A
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
E B A
But she can't be what you need if she's 17
E B A
They're just girls
E B A
They're just girls
E B A
Cause they're just girls breaking hearts
E B A
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
E B A
But she can't be what you need if she's 17
E B A
They're just girls
E B A
They're just girls
E B A
Cause they're just girls...
E B A
Just girls, they're just girls...Send feedback
