Chords with lyrics (Ver. 2)
BB 
E MajorE
I like your face despite your nose
BB E MajorE
17 and a half years old
BB E MajorE
I'm worrying about my brother finding out
BB E MajorE
Where's the fun in doing what you're told?
BB
I said "No!
F#F# E MajorE
Oh give it a rest, I could persuade you
BB F#F#
I'm not your typical, stoned 18 year old
E MajorE
Give me a night I'll make you.
BB F#F#
I know you're looking for salvation in the secular age,
E MajorE
But girl I'm not your saviour"
BB F#F#
Wrestle to the ground
E MajorE
God help me now
Chorus: B, F#, E MajorE (in between the F#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
Cause they're just girls breaking hearts
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
But she can't be what you need if she's 17
They're just girls
They're just girls
BB E MajorE
A augmentedA pair of frozen hands to hold,
BB E MajorE
Oh she's so southern so she feels the cold,
BB
One moment I was tearing off your blouse,
E MajorE
Now you're living in my house.
BB E MajorE
What happened to just messing around?
BB F#F# E MajorE
I said "Yo, I think I better go; I can't take you.
BB F#F# E MajorE
You just sit and get stoned with 30 year olds and you think you've made it.
BB F#F# E MajorE
Well, shouldn't you be fucking with somebody your age instead of making changes?"
BB F#F#
Wrestle to the ground
E MajorE
God help me now
Chorus: B, F#, E MajorE (again, slide from the fourth fret to the sixth, on the D-string,
in between the F#F# and the E, and repeat
Cause they're just girls breaking hearts
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
But she can't be what you need if she's 17
They're just girls
They're just girls
E MajorE (x2) BB F#F#
I told her from the start
E MajorE (x2) BB F#F#
Destined to be hard
E MajorE (x2)
I told her from the start
BB F#F#
I'll break your heart
E MajorE (x2)
Destined to be hard
BB F#F#
Break your heart
BB F#F# E MajorE
I said "Yo, I think you'd better go; I can't take you.
BB F#F#
I know you're looking for salvation in the secular age,
E MajorE
But girl I'm not your saviour.
BB F#F# E MajorE
Well, shouldn't you be fucking with somebody your age instead of making changes?"
BB F#F#
Wrestle to the ground
E MajorE
God help me now
(Chorus progression as before: B, F#, E, with the slide)
Cause they're just girls breaking hearts
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
But she can't be what you need if she's 17
They're just girls
They're just girls
They're just girls breaking hearts
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
But she can't be what you need if she's 17
They're just girls
They're just girls
Cause they're just girls...
