Verse 1:
A augmentedA A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
They say "boys will be boys" while the girls become women,
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
I met one myself who makes me feel like a kid
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE E MajorE E MajorE E MajorE
in cutoff blue-jeans on his first day out swimming.
Pre-Chorus
D MajorD D MajorD A augmentedA A augmentedA
And it feels like I might have a new purpose
A augmentedA A augmentedA E MajorE E MajorE E MajorE
but I'm still that little boy who just sits there, nervous.
A augmentedA A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
She says "will you dance with me? I just turned thirteen
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA A augmentedA
in my homemade dress my dad's never seen."
Interlude
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE

Verse 2:
A augmentedA A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
Well, they turned down the lights, my hands got all sweaty,
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
a slow song came on, it was one that I knew.
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE E MajorE E MajorE E MajorE
I stared at my shoes and said "I don't think I'm ready."
Verse 3:
A augmentedA A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
And some rich kid comes by, he said she looked pretty,
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
and they walked out to the dance floor and his hand started wand'rin'
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE E MajorE E MajorE E MajorE
and there was nothing I could do except moan in self pity.
Pre-Chorus
D MajorD D MajorD A augmentedA A augmentedA
And it feels like I ought to knock that kid out,
A augmentedA A augmentedA E MajorE E MajorE E MajorE
but his monopoly money might be her way out.
A augmentedA A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
She says "will you dance with me? I've just turned thirteen
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE E MajorE E MajorE E MajorE
in my homemade dress my dad's never seen."
A augmentedA A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
Well, I wrote you these letters in my pocket but they're told
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA A augmentedA
because the critic killed the artist before he was born.
Interlude
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE
Mmm, mmm.
A augmentedA A augmentedA
Verse 4:
A augmentedA A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
Well, they got through the song but when the music was over
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
she slapped that old rich kid. The coach came to fetch him
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE E MajorE E MajorE E MajorE
the old homemade dress was pushed back up to her shoulders.
Verse 5: A augmentedA A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
And she ran for the bathroom and I got up from my chair.
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
I was ten steps behind her, sittin' in the hallway,
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE E MajorE E MajorE E MajorE
that rich kid back to dancin' while I waited there.
Pre-Chorus D MajorD D MajorD A augmentedA A augmentedA
And it feels like she took the blame
D MajorD D MajorD E MajorE E MajorE E MajorE E MajorE
but she didn't sew for hours to tarnish her name.
A augmentedA A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
I said "will you dance with me?" Way past thirteen,
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE E MajorE E MajorE E MajorE
with my bad reputation and thrift store routine.
A augmentedA A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
Well, you can't change the truth or go back in time,
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA A augmentedA
but all hell breaks loose when your heart changes your mind.
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA A augmentedA
All hell breaks loose when your heart changes your mind.
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA A augmentedA
Yeah, all hell breaks loose when your heart changes your mind.
