C D
Going down in the same old town down the same street to the same bar
C D
Same old faces saying “Hi” and I don’t care
C D
Going down in the same old bar tonight, I don't even order anymore
C D
I am so sick of consequence and the look on your face
C D
I am tired of playing defense, I don't even have hockey skates
C D
Don’t even have hockey skates…
Am
You can meet me at ten thirty
C G D
I won't even be there I'll be gone
Am
We can talk like we are friends
C
Going over it all again
G D
You just talking about everything I am doing wrong
[Extended fill]
C D
Do you wish your nose was longer
C D
So you'd have an excuse not to see past it
C D
Do you wish that the lights, they were brighter
C D
in the city that you live
C D
I am so sick of consequence, and the look on your face
C
And I’m tired of playing defense
D C
I don’t even have hockey skates
D C D
I don’t even have hockey skates, Ohh
Am
You can meet me at ten thirty
C G D
I won't even be there I'll be gone
Am
We can talk like we are friends
C
Going over it all again
G D
You just talking about everything I am doing wrong
Am C
Do you think your boys club will crumble
G D
Just because of a loud-mouthed girl?
Am C G D
Just because of a loud-mouthed girl
