I couldn't find any accurate tabs/chords for this song... so I figured I'd give it
a shot. I’m a little iffy on the bridge – if you have any corrections please post
them in the comments and I’ll fix it! (: A second set of ears is always nice.

Well you lie like a penny in the parking lot at the grocery store

That ain't my perfume, I bet she had a curfew
