Tuning:

This is a fantastic group that I'm so glad that I stumbled upon. This chord tab is based off of the youtube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xraBEAoMNX8 If you are having any troubles with the rhythm of the song, please listen to the song or watch the video I provided. Also, when you've made your final judgement on the tab, please rate and leave a comment.

[Pre-Chorus]

But you look ^D5good tonight girl^C5friend, Can I sleep in your b^Bb5ed? And when I ^D5crawl out in the ^C5morning, Can I ^F5stay inside your ^Bb5head? ^C5

[Chorus]

'Cause you were ^Bb5high sc^C5hool^D5 And ^F5*I was just more like real ^Bb5*life And you were ^Bb5okay, ^C5okay as a ^D5girlfriend But ^F5*I was just more like his ^Bb5*wife And it was ^Bb5okay ^C5 I'll wear the ^D5makeup I'll do what^F5*ever he wants all ^Bb5*night 'Cause you were ^Bb5okay ^C5 as a ^D5girlfriend But ^F5*I was just more like his ^Bb5*wife.

A long, ^F5long, long, long, long, long, long time ago my great, great, great, ^Bb5great grandfather

took something that did not belong to him

And that is ^C5why today I have an eagle in my veins I am^Bb5 part Native American And I am ^F5leaving as soon as I come, As soon as I come you will^Bb5 probably forget my name I hope I ^C5fall asleep at the wheel and crash my car on the ^Bb5ride home

[Pre-Chorus]

But you look ^D5good tonight girl^C5friend, Can I sleep in your b^Bb5ed? And when I ^D5crawl out in the ^C5morning, Can I ^F5stay inside your ^Bb5head? ^C5
