Verse 1:
    Am                           F               C
I thought you were a James Dean rebel without a cause
                 Am                        F                      C
One hand in the pocket of your blue jeans leanin' up against the wall
      Am                 F                     C                                    G/B
Like cigarette smoke and old school matches I would've looked good in your leather jacket
    Am                           F               C
I thought you were a James Dean rebel without a cause
Am                   F                         C
If this were a movie I would be your love interest
        Am                         F                     C
You'd steal a car, steal my heart ride into the wild sunset
 Am                     F               C                                 G/B
Dancin' on the edge of no tomorrow, we would've raised hell in that El Dorado
Am                   F                         C Bb
If this were a movie I would be your love interest

Chorus:
                     C       G
Instead you picked Plain Jane
              Am            G
Little miss what's her name?
                       F
When you could've had fire, you could've have crazy
          Dm       Em        G
Talkin' breakout, make-out, kissin' in the backseat
 Am                                     F
Dang, I was hopin' I could drive you insane
                                    G
Bet your heart'll be kicking your brain, oh, what a shame
             C       G
You picked Plain Jane
  C      Am     F     Dm    Em    G
Plain, Plain, Plain, Jane, Jane, Jane


Verse 2:
    Am                          F                     C
I thought she was the harmless goody goody girl next door
      Am                    F                        C
That dime a dozen kind of pretty that you've seen before
    Am                    F                  C                           G/B
The opposite of what you said you wanted, a Barbie doll made in mass production
    Am                          F                     Dm Em Bb
I thought she was the harmless goody goody girl next door


Chorus:
                      C       G
So why'd you picked Plain Jane
              Am            G
Little miss what's her name?
                       F
When you could've had fire, you could've have crazy
          Dm       Em        G
Talkin' breakout, make-out, kissin' in the backseat
 Am                                     F
Dang, I was hopin' I could drive you insane
                                    G
Bet your heart'll be kicking your brain, oh, what a shame
             C       G
You picked Plain Jane
  C      Am     F     Dm    Em    G
Plain, Plain, Plain, Jane, Jane, Jane


Bridge:
      Dm                          Am
Your cool turns to khakis, your Chucks turn to loafers
      C                  G
That jacket's a cardigan around your shoulders
     Dm                   Am
The rebel inside you has withered and died
        F                         G7
And I cringe at the sight on the new you


Chorus:
                      C
I'm glad you picked Plain Jane
              Am             G
Little miss what's her name?
                       F
When you could've had fire, you could've have crazy
          Dm       Em        G
Talkin' breakout, make-out, kissin' in the backseat
 Am                                     F
Dang, I was hopin' I could drive you insane
                                    G
Bet your heart'll be kicking your brain, oh, what a shame
             C       G
You picked Plain Jane
