Verse 1
            G                 D                     
She's the prettiest girl I've ever seen the walking 
 Em              C
definition of a beauty queen
       G                    D                    Em    
Every man in town wants to take her away but she hasn't
         C            G  D
 always been this way

                 G                   D
You should have seen that girl ten years ago
        Em                   C
With a cool-aid moustache and freckle nose
           G                   D                   
Now she's breaking hearts and taking names but she 
Em             C
hasn't always been this way
D                              C D
 She didn't mean anything to me,  I brushed her off so 
easily

Chorus
 G         Em      C         D
She hasn't always been this way
                  G        Em         C         D
I really can't believe how much that girl has changed
      C                     G/B
She's out of my life, she's out of my reach
    B7                     Em         D
I'm out of her mind, she's out of my league
     C         D                 G
But she hasn't always been this way

Interlude  (G)    |D    |Em   |C    ||
