Tuning: E A D G B E
The strumming pattern - if you aren't going to do the picking - has a bit of a swing feel to it.
I HIGHLY suggest playing along with the song quite a bit to get the hang of that.
The basic picking pattern is this with each chord:
e|-------------------------|
B|----------X--X-----------|
G|----------X--X-----------|
D|----------X--X-----------|
A|--X--X-------------------|
E|-------------------------|
[Verse 1]
BHold my head a little higher
ACan't you tell I love a liar?
EI know what I look like to you
BI would say it's excessive
AOr maybe damn impressive
EI'll admit I'm confused
[Pre-Chorus]
BI've gotta remember
AThat I'm just a toy
E'Til you got my hopes up
E7And now I'm annoyed
BYou thought you could charm me
AAnd, damn it, you're right
ESo watch me fall for every damn stereotype
[Chorus]
BYou can't help it
GThis is just how Dwe were taught to lF#ove
Oh, thBmere's a name for boyGs like you
And yDet I feel lucky to hear all your lines
I haF#te that they shake me up every time
[Interlude]
B(with the swing picking style)
[Verse 2]
BHold my hand for just a second
ASee you soon, what do we reckon?
EMaybe I'm not just a friend
BBut we're so close, I thought we'd kiss
ATurns out you're just good at this
EBut how 'bout you do it again?
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh no, IB've gotta remember
AThat I'm just a toy
E'Til you got my hopes up
E7And now I'm annoyed
BYou thought you could charm me
AAnd, damn it, you're right
ESo watch me fall for every damn stereotype
[Chorus]
BYou can't help it
GThis is just how Dwe were taught to lF#ove
Oh, thBmere's a name for boyGs like you
And yDet I feel lucky to hear all your lines
I haF#te that they shake me up every time
BmGuess I'll take it
GThis is just how Dwe were taught to lF#ove
Oh, thBmere's a name for boyGs like you
And yDet I feel lucky to hear all your lines
I haF#te that they shake me up every time
