C#              F#
I'm the singer, I'm the singer in the band
C#              F#
You're the loser, I won't dismiss you out of hand
Bbm              F#
Cos you've got a beautiful face
  G#
It will take you places


C#
You kept running
F#                             C#
You've got money, you've got fame
               F#                            Bbm
Every morning I see your picture from the train

Now you're an actress!
F#
So says your résumé
G#
You're made of card
G#                                        C#
You couldn't act your way out of a paper bag


C#             F#                        C#
You got lucky, you ain't talking to me now

Little Miss Plucky
F#                            Bbm
Pluck your eyebrows for the crowd

Get on the airplane
F#
You give me stomach pain
G#
I wish that you were here
                                   C#
We would have had a lot to talk about


C#
We had a deal there
F#                              C#
We nearly signed it with our blood

An understanding
F#                                  Bbm
I thought that you would keep your word

I'm disappointed
F#
I'm aggravated
G#
It's a fault I have, I know
G#
When things don't go my way I have to


Bbm             F
Blow up in the face of my rivals
C#                         Eb
I swear and I rant, I make quite an arrival
G#m             Eb
The men are surprised by the language
      B(9)                   G#                          C#
They act so discreet, they are hypocrites so fuck them too!


C#
I always loved you
F#                         C#
You always had a lot of style
C#                 F#                               Bbm
              I'd hate to see you on the pile
Of nearly-made-it' s
F#
You've got the essence, dear
G#
If I could have a second skin
G#
I'd probably dress up in you


C#
You're a star now
F#                      C#
I am fixing people's nails

I'm knitting jumpers
G#                   Bbm
I'm working after hours

I've got a boyfriend
F#
I've got a feeling that
G#
he's seeing someone else
G#
He always had a thing for you as well


Bbm            F
Blow up in the face of my rivals

I swear and I rant
