[Cm] A girl's special [Eb] day, where [Bb] she's the only one.
[Bbm] There's a charming prince [F] down on one knee, [Fm] who swears he'll be true.
[Db] And a bloody [Ab] diamond ring of glass, [Eb] that he's financed [Bb] just for you.
Well, [Fm] he's got a car, [Gb] some [F] credit cards, [Fm] it's love at [Ab] first glance.
[Db] And she does it all [Ab] in the name of [Db] romance.
[F] How does that look?
[Bb]
Valentine's [Eb] and senior proms, [F] don't kiss on [Gm] first dates.
[Cm] An Ivy [Ab] League school, where [Db] you'll meet your [F] soulmate.
[Bb] And a Hollywood [Eb] magazine, show [Dm] me what to [Gm] expect.
I know [Cm] you're Clark's ticket, [Eb] girl, but [Bb] where's your self [F]-respect?
I [Bb] swear [Gb] you're a trip of grace.

[C] [G]
But you're not [D] a woman [F] till you've [C] played God.
[Eb] A couple of kids [Dm] and mom and dad would [Cm] be impressed.
[Dm] So [Eb] it's off to night school, [Dm] one more time to pass [Cm] their tests.
[F]
[Eb] Regression's [Dm] not an option, and the [Cm] physical [Bb] proof that [Ab] they're mad.
[Bb]
[Bb] Hurry up, in [F] my prime, [Gb] we're talking about [Bb] my life.

[Dm] [Gm]
[Cm] [Ab]
[Db] [F]
[Bb] [C]
[Dm] So give me one [Bb] traffic light.
[Cm] Always [F] the bridesmaid, [Bb] never once the bride.

[Cm] When God speaks to those kids [Gb] on his adventurette.
