Capo 6
[Intro] (x2)
Cadd9 G
[Verse 1]
Cadd9 G
She is a pageant queen
Cadd9 G
With over 20 titles to her name
Cadd9 G
But here’s the funny thing
Cadd9 G
She’s not a day older than 18
Cadd9 G
See I have bigger dreams
Cadd9 G
Than living in this town
Cadd9 G
I’m not a beauty queen
Cadd9 G
I would stay but I don’t wanna drown
[Pre-Chorus]
Em7 G
But then there’s you
Cadd9
You won’t dream that big
D
And that’s why
[Chorus]
G
She’s the kind of girl you marry,
Cadd9
And I’m the kind you don’t.
G
She’s the one you wanna carry
Cadd9 D
Into your brand new home.
Em7
After your honey moon right
D
She looked better in white
Cadd9 G
Than I ever could
Am C* G
But, she won’t love you like I would
Cadd9
[Verse 2]
He is the basketball star
The captain of the team
And it’s so sad to think
That it’s the only place he’ll take his dream
In 20 years from now
When he’s married to his beauty queen
He’ll look down at his baby
Is this as perfect as it seems?
[Pre-Chorus]
Em7 G
But then there’s you
Cadd9
You won’t dream that big
D
And that’s why
[Chorus]
G
She’s the kind of girl you marry,
Cadd9
And I’m the kind you don’t.
G
She’s the one you wanna carry
Cadd9
Into your brand new home.
D Em7
After your honey moon right
Cadd9
She looked better in white
G D
Than I ever could
Am C*
But, she won’t love you like I would
[Instrumental] (x2)
Am* Em* D
[Verse 3]
Am*
Maybe I regret
Em* D
Not loving you
Am*
And maybe it’s the hardest thing
Em* D
I’ve ever had to do
G
She’s the kind of girl you marry,
Cadd9
And I’m the kind you don’t.
G D
Ooooo… But I’m just not right for you
[Chorus]
G
She’s the kind of girl you marry,
Cadd9
And I’m the kind you don’t.
G
She’s the one you wanna carry
Cadd9
Into your brand new home.
D Em7
After your honey moon right
Cadd9
She looked better in white
G D
Than I ever could
Am C*
But, she won’t love you like I would
[Outro]
G Cadd9
G C
Ooooh Ooooh
G C
Ooooh Ooooh
G C
Ooooh Ooooh
