Verse 1:
D5   B5        A#5    A5    D5   B5   A#5
Take this pink ribbon off my eyes
A5     D5   B5    A#5    A5     D5   B5  A#5
I'm exposed, and it's no big surprise
A5          D5     B5    A#5    A5    D5  B5  A#5  A5
Don't you think I know exactly where I stand?
       D5       B5    A#5    A5     D5  B5  A#5 A5
This world is forcing me to hold your hand

Chorus:
       Bm         A         G            A
'Cause I'm just a girl, oh, little old me
      Bm            A         G      A
Well, don't let me out of your sight
     Bm        A           G            A
Oh, I'm just a girl, all pretty and petite
    Bm           A      G      A
So don't let me have any rights

Post-Chorus:
G         C            D5  B5 A#5 A5 D5 B5 A#5 A5
Oh, I've had it up to here

Verse 2:
     D5 B5 A#5    A5      D5 B5 A#5
The moment that I step outside
    A5     D5  B5   A#5   A5     D5 B5 A#5
So many reasons for me to run and hide
        A5      D5      B5 A#5  A5   D5 B5 A#5
I can't do the little things I hold so dear
             A5        D5     B5 A#5 A5   D5 B5 A#5 A5
'Cause it's all those little things that I fear

Chorus:
       Bm         A         G           A
'Cause I'm just a girl, I'd rather not be
             Bm           A           G   A
'Cause they won't let me drive late at night
     Bm         A               G             A
Oh, I'm just a girl, guess I'm some kind of freak
             Bm            A            G   A
'Cause they all sit and stare with their eyes
     Bm         A            G             A
Oh, I'm just a girl, take a good look at me
           Bm      A   G    A
Just your typical proto-type

Post-Chorus:
G        C
Oh, I've had it up to here

Bridge:
D5  B5  A#5  A5
D5  B5  A#5  A5

D5  B5     A#5   A5  D5  B5  A#5  A5
I'm just a girl
D5  B5     A#5  A5    D5  B5  A#5  A5
I'm just a girl in a world
       D5     B5  A#5   A5   D5  B5  A#5  A5
That's all that you'll let me be

Chorus:
     Bm         A            G         A
Oh, I'm just a girl, living in captivity
          Bm             A      G  A
Your rule of thumb makes me worrisome
     Bm         A      G              A
Oh, I'm just a girl, what's my destiny?
           Bm              A       G      A
What I've succumbed to is making me numb
     Bm         A    G         A
Oh, I'm just a girl, my apologies
           Bm        A       G  A
What I've become is so burdensome
    Bm          A     G      A
Oh, I'm just a girl, lucky me
        Bm               A     G   A
Twiddle-dum, there's no compari-son

Outro:
G        C
Oh, I've had it up to
G        C
Oh, I've had it up to
G*        C*         Bm*
Oh, I've had it up to here
