Girl Next Door chords by Brandy Clark

• Capo on 3rd

Intro: Am (x6)


verse 1

Am
When you took me home, you knew who you were taking
        F
Not some Debbie debutante, standing in an (Am)apron, frying up your bacon


Pre-Chorus

Am
My house and my mouth and my mind get kinda trashy

I've never been to jail, but Hell, I wouldn't put it past me


Am
So, if you want the girl next door, some Virgin Mary metaphor
    F
Your cardboard cutout on the wall, your paper or your Barbie doll
    Am
With perfect hair and a perfect dress, I'm really just the perfect mess
   F                                         G
And I ain't nothing less or nothing more, so baby, if you want the girl next door

Post-Chorus

             Am
Then go next door and go right now, and don't look back, don't turn around
              F
And don't call me when you get bored, yeah, if you want the girl next door
           Am
Then go next door

Solo

(Am) (Am) (Am)

verse 2

Am
Sorry, I ain't sorry that I ain't your Marsha Brady, uh-uh

If I ever met her, bet she'd probably
Am
hate me, 'cause you'd wanna date me

Pre-Chorus

   Am
My heart and my head and my bed can get real twisted
F
And you wouldn't be the first to think you're --- gonna go and fix it

   Am
So, if you want the girl next door, some Virgin Mary metaphor
    F
Your cardboard cutout on the wall, your paper or your Barbie doll

     Am
With perfect hair and a perfect dress, I'm really just the perfect mess
    F                                       G
And I ain't nothing less or nothing more, so baby, if you want the girl next door

Post-Chorus

            Am
Then go next door and go right now, and don't look back, don't turn around
              F
And don't call me when you get bored, yeah, if you want the girl next door
           Am
Then go next door

Solo

(Am) (Am) (Am)

Bridge

   G                                   Am
The thing that turns you on is what you wanna change
       G                               F
But you have a better chance of slowing down a train

Am
If you want the girl next door, some Virgin Mary metaphor
    F
Your cardboard cutout on the wall, your paper or your Barbie doll
    Am
With perfect hair and a perfect dress, I'm really just the perfect mess
   F                                         G
And I ain't nothing less or nothing more, so baby, if you want the girl next door

Post-Chorus

            Am
Then go next door and go right now, and don't look back, don't turn around
              F
And don't call me when you get bored, yeah, if you want the girl next door
           Am
Then go next door
