[D] [G] [F] [G] [F]
[G] [F] [G]
You must have broken all your laws
When the boys used to say
You look [D] better in the dark
Now they've given all and learned
It's true to be somebody
Ain't nothing [G] to do
Oh, oh, oh
Teachers would ask a question
And you would always [D] raise your head
Somehow you never got your chance
My eyes were filled with water
[G] Inside I burned
Oh, yes, I did
[D] Oh, me girl
Used to be so lonely
You're a [G] beautiful woman
Oh, me girl
Oh, [D] me girl
Used to be so lonely
[F#] You're [G] a beautiful woman
Oh, me girl
There was a boy who used to sit beside you
He liked to hold and play, see so [D] life through
You were beautiful to me
With a heart no one could [G] ever see
Oh, yes, he did
[D] Oh, me girl
Used to be so lonely
You're a [G] beautiful woman Oh, yes
I [Em] was the only one who offered [D] to carry your book
[Em] But the colonists didn't love that
[D] The dirty look
[C] Cause I saw it
[Bm] What they [G] see now
[Bm] They all want to ask you for a date
But they [Am] don't know how
[A]
They [D] don't know how
[G] [F]
[G] [D] Oh, me girl
Used to be so lonely
You're a [G] beautiful woman
Oh, me girl
Oh, [D] me girl
Used to be so lonely
You're [G] a beautiful woman
Oh, me girl
Used [D]
to be so lonely
You're a [G] beautiful woman
Oh, me girl
[D] Used to be so lonely
[G] Oh, me girl
