[INTRO]
Bb Eb Gm F
[VERSE]
BbRollerskate skinny and the terrible twos
EbHow can you have everything and nothing to lose
GmYou and nobody see eye to eye
You're gonna Fwake up with a ghost instead of a guy
[VERSE]
BbBulletin board on the wall of a church
EbSoaking up the city from a top-step perch
GmYou're gonna break down on a midnight date
You're gonna Fcurse this town, you're gonna run late
[CHORUS]
You're pretty as a Cmpenny, rollerskate Fskinny
You're pretty as a Cmpenny, rollerskate Fskinny
[VERSE]
Do you Bbwant to meet up at the Pickwood Bowl
We could Ebknock nine down and leave one in the hole
GmWouldn't be here if the Athenia hadn't sunk
Or if Fdear ol' dad hadn't got so drunk
[VERSE]
BbEvery other day is a kick in the shins
EbEvery other day it's like the day just wins
You Gmmake it all right, you make 'em okay
You Fmake me sorta glad that I waited 'til today
F
[CHORUS]
You're pretty as a Cmpenny, rollerskate FSkinny
You're pretty as a Cmpenny, rollerskate FSkinny
[SOLO]
Bb Eb Gm F
[VERSE]
BbRollerskate skinny and the terrible twos
EbTwo years in and it's time to choose
GmLove feels good when it sits right down
Puts its Ffeet up on the table and it sends a bowl around
[VERSE]
BbAin't nobody gonna see eye to eye
With a Ebgirl who's only gonna stand collarbone high
GmRain's gonna come in fair-sized drips
We're Fgonna go to heaven wearing paper hat ships
F
[CHORUS]
You're pretty as a Cmpenny, rollerskate Fskinny
You're pretty as a Cmpenny, rollerskate Fskinny
