C                       Em7
Squint your eyes and look closer

       Ebmaj7                Cadd9
I'm not between you and your ambition

       C                   Em7
I am a poster girl with no poster

      Ebmaj7                Cadd9
I am thirty-two flavors and then some

        C                      Em7
And I'm beyond your peripheral vision

       Ebmaj7             Cadd9
So you might want to turn your head

       C                      Em7
Cause someday you're going to get hungry

        Ebmaj7                Cadd9
And eat most of the words you just said
C Em7 Ebmaj7 Cadd9 C Em7 Ebmaj7 Cadd9 [Verse 2]
        C                 Em7
Both my parents taught me about good will

    Ebmaj7              Cadd9
And I have done well by their names

        C                       Em7
just the kindness I've lavished on strangers

    Ebmaj7         Cadd9
is more than I can explain

              C                      Em7
still there's many who've turned out their porch lights

        Ebmaj7                  Cadd9
just so I would think they were not home

    C                  Em7
and hid in the dark of their windows

        Ebmaj7          Cadd9
til I'd passed and left them alone
[Chorus]
        C      Em7    Ebmaj7   Cadd9
O-o-o-o-oh hey ya hey yaaah

        C      Em7    Ebmaj7   Cadd9
O-o-o-o-oh hey ya hey ya-a-a   aah

        C      Em7    Ebmaj7   Cadd9
O-o-o-o-oh hey yo hey yaaah

        C      Em7    Ebmaj7   Cadd9
O-o-o-o-oh hey ya hey ya-a-a   aah
[Verse 3]
        C                      Em7
And god help you if you are an ugly girl

       Ebmaj7             Cadd9
Course too pretty is also your doom

      C                  Em7
Cause everyone harbors a secret hatred

        Ebmaj7            Cadd9
For the prettiest girl in the room

        C                   Em7
And god help you if you are a phoenix

        Ebmaj7          Cadd9
And you dare to rise up from the ash

          C                  Em7
A thousand eyes will smolder with jealousy

       Ebmaj7      Cadd9
While you are just flying ...

C  Em7  Ebmaj7  Cadd9
back...

      C                    Em7
And I never try to give my life meaning

   Ebmaj7    Cadd9
By demeaning you

      C                   Em7
And I would like to state for the record

      Ebmaj7            Cadd9
I did everything that I could do

    C                    Em7
I'm not saying that I am a saint

        Ebmaj7            Cadd9
I just don't want to live that way

    C                  Em7
No, I will never be a saint

 Ebmaj7         Cadd9
...but I will always say
[Verse 5]
C                       Em7
Squint your eyes and look closer

       Ebmaj7                Cadd9
I'm not between you and your ambition

       C                Em7
I am a poster girl with no poster

      Ebmaj7                Cadd9
I am thirty-two flavors and then some

        C                      Em7
And I'm beyond your peripheral vision

       Ebmaj7             Cadd9
So you might want to turn your head

       C                     Em7
Cause someday you might find you are starving

        Ebmaj7                Cadd9
And eating all of the words that you said...
