B                     
There's certain things you're s'posed to know
                                       C#m
When you're a girl who grows up in the south
  B
I try to use my common sense,
                                 C#m
But my foot always ends up in my mouth
       E
And if I had to walk a runway in high heels in front of the whole town
          D#m
I'd fall down
            E              F#
And my mama cried when she realized

        B
I ain't pageant material
           G#m
I'm always higher than my hair
                                          E
And it ain't that I don't care about world peace
                                                    F#
But I don't see how I can fix it in a swimsuit on a stage
         B 
I ain't exactly Ms. Congenial
            G#m                           
Sometimes I talk before I think, I try to fake it but I can't
            C#m             E       F#              B 
I'd rather lose for what I am than win for what I ain't
(G)
God bless the girls who smile and hug
                                          C#m
When they're called out as a runner up on TV
  B
I wish I could, but I just can't
                                         C#m
Wear a smile when a smile ain't what I'm feelin'
    E
And who's to say I'm a 9.5, or a 4.0 
                  D#m
If you don't even know me
            E                 F#
Life ain't always roses and pantyhose and
 
        B
I ain't pageant material
           G#m
I'm always higher than my hair
                                          E
And it ain't that I don't care about world peace
                                                    F#
But I don't see how I can fix it in a swimsuit on a stage
         B 
I ain't exactly Ms. Congenial
            G#m                           
Sometimes I talk before I think, I try to fake it but I can't
            C#m             E       F#              B 
I'd rather lose for what I am than win for what I ain't

G#m  E  F#

        B
I ain't pageant material
         G#m
The only crown is in my glass
                                            E
They won't be handin' me a sash, and that's okay, cause there's no way
                                      F#
You'll ever see me in a swimsuit on a stage
         B 
I ain't exactly Ms. Congenial
            G#m                           
Sometimes I talk before I think, I try to fake it but I can't
            C#m             E       F#              B 
I'd rather lose for what I am than win for what I ain't
                C#m             E       F#              B 
Yeah I'd rather lose for what I am than win for what I ain't
