VERSE:
 E MajorE
Twenty eight shouldn't look this old

But the last ten years sure took their toll
    A augmentedA
On the girl in the picture with the plastic crown
    E MajorE
That sequin dress wouldn't fit her now
 F# minorF#m
Like it did
  BB
Before the kids

VERSE:
     E MajorE
Yea she loves her husband ‘cause she said she would

Oh it ain't so bad but it ain't so good
   A augmentedA
She swore she wouldn't get stuck in this town
      E MajorE
Now she's cutting coupons two doors down
 F# minorF#m
From a mall
  BB
And it goes on


CHORUS:
   A augmentedA
Yea too bad love ain't a local parade

In your uncle's Corvette on a Saturday
   E MajorE
With all the little girls waiting on you to wave
 DbmDbm
When you're 17
      A augmentedA
You don't know
         BB
You won't always be
       E MajorE
Homecoming queen

VERSE:
 E MajorE
Newspaper clipping and a sash in a box

Are the only things that didn't get lost
   A augmentedA
She married a guy on the real estate sign
     E MajorE
And it's hard to believe once upon a time
     F# minorF#m
She was royalty
     BB
The girl we all wanted to be


CHORUS:
   A augmentedA
Yea too bad love ain't a local parade

In your uncle's Corvette on a Saturday
   E MajorE
With all the little girls waiting on you to wave
 DbmDbm
When you're 17
      A augmentedA
You don't know
           BB
That you won't always be
       A augmentedA
Homecoming queen


BRIDGE:
    A augmentedA       E MajorE
Or the captain of the team
           F# minorF#m
And it ain't what it seems
           BB  A augmentedA E MajorE G+G A augmentedA BB
It’s just a teenage dream


CHORUS:
   A augmentedA
Yea too bad love ain't a local parade

In your uncle's Corvette on a Saturday
   E MajorE
With all the little girls waiting on you to wave
 DbmDbm
When you're 17
      A augmentedA
You don't know
         BB
You won't always be
      DbM
You don't know
         BB
You won't always be
      E MajorE
Homecoming queen
