F C G x2


Verse 1:
G        F           C
Nineteen ninety four
  G                                F        C
A girl pukes out the window on her car door
    G                                     F         C
Her childish eyes say, "I don't want this anymore
               G
I want to be a woman
                             F            C
No, no, see, I don't want to be no whore"
G            Am
January 1, 1994

Post Verse 1:
   G              F
A new year's resolution
  G             Dm
A cause for celebration
    G         F
But idle hesitation
  G
Reminds me I am just a whore


Intro:

F C G X2


Verse 2:
G       F       C
Hate to tell her
       G                                F      C
That I saw them standing closely in the cellar
   G
It all ticked off, it's twelve o'clock
    F                C
The screams wouldn't stop
    G                               F         C
The New Year dawn got tucked away into a hole
             G                           Am
So could you tell her, tell her that I'm all alone


Post Verse 2:
     G                 F
This New Year came too soon
      G                Dm
But I knew it would be you
   G              F
To tear up all my thoughts
   G
Of how I thought it was


Interlude:
C       Dm
Say goodbye
          F                    Am           Em
If you're leaving me, could you at least let me know?
C       Dm
Say goodbye
       F                   Am       Em   F
If you want to leave, then I suggest you go


Intro:

F C G x2


Verse 3:
            F          C
Let's smoke cigarettes
       G                               F              C
But we haven't got a thing that we can light them with
           G
We'll just wait here for a fight
            F           C
Then we can bum a light
           G                           F           C
You're the only ones who really give a shit tonight
     G                         Am
It reminds me how nothing ever turns out right


Post Verse 3:
    G             F
And all I want is you
G               Dm
All you want is something new
         G                F
So let's turn out all the lights
       G                  C
And pretend we're someone else tonight
