Intro:
Gm Am Gm Dm D E7

               A7
That’s not my name!

Verse 1:
                    Am7
Doesn’t anybody ever get it right, Carrie,
                                         G7
When’ll they remember I am Carrie White? Carrie,
           Gm7
Is it any harder to say than
          D       F                     G
God damn total spastic, and weirdo and dumb bitch
A                Am
Doesn’t anybody think that I can hear? I hear!
                                                      G
‘speically when I’ve got them screaming in my ear, I hear!

Every day they mock me and push me around,
        F
‘til I drop
                        E            A
If I had a wish, God, I wish they’d stop

When will they, I wish they’d
                                 A
When will they, when will they, when will they?
A
Sometimes their hatred is out of control,
A
God how they hurt me.

Mama says suffering is good for the soul,
         Gm
But they hurt me

Chorus:
                F
And if I could, I’d bring them all,
G
Down to their knees!
F                      G                C
I’d make them sorry forever for teasing Carrie
F       D
Carrie, Carrie!

G A

Verse 2:
G
I will not cry,
D      G
I am okay,
                  D          G
I try so hard to play their way.
                    D
Why do they find it so hard to say Carrie?
                            G
Why do they always treat me so bad,
     A
They all know my name?
      D
It’s Carrie!
                              G
I don’t know why they all get so mad,
     A                D G
It’s always the same!
             A   D    G
What’s going on deep in me,
              A       D      G
All of these feelings suddenly?
        A         D            G
If I am changing, will I still be;
D
Carrie?
             G           A
Or what if I am somebody new?
  D          G              A
Imagine, the things I might do!

Bridge:
  D#
I might take a chance,
G#                   D#  G#
I’ve always wondered how
   D#
Or maybe I’ll dance
    G#                              A# D#
And try to laugh more than I do now.
        G#                  D#
And the world will open its eyes,
        Fm7                        A#7      F#
And for once the whole world will recognize Carrie!
     A                    Am
Then all those people who scream night and day:
      A          A7
“Poor praying Carrie!”

They’d see the new me,
    A
And they might even say:
            Gm7
“Look! It’s Carrie!”

Chorus:
    Gm       F
And finally, I’d hear that word,
G
Sounding so sweet!
F                           G          C
Thousands of voices forever repeating: Carrie,
F       Dm
Carrie, Carrie!
Bm       Am               G  D
I am the sound of distant thunder,
            A
A colour, a flame!
    F
I’m Carrie!
Dm     C               A# F
I am a song of endless wonder,
     F
That no one will claim.
    G#              A#
But someday, oh my, someday!
                     F C D# Gm C# B F
Someone will know my name!
