[Intro] D [Verse 1]
D
Is that a hearse or a limousine?

                                         G    D
It's like I've seen it on the TV screen oh ooh

D
She had the body of a beauty queen

                                    G   D
Put on a pedestal for good hygiene oh oh

G
I saw a girl that looked like you

      D                                        G
And I wanted to tell everyone to run away from her

               D
Run away, run away!

   G
It couldnât have been you but she had your eyes

         D
Made for faking smiles and turning tides

G                                          D
Hands full of young men wrapped around her finger
[Verse 2]
D
They made you a throne out of magazines

                                     G  D
They made you a crown out of peonies oh ooh
She grew up as the pretty young thing
                                           G
Let them look up her skirt on the backyard swing

   D
Oh no

G
Daddy told you to stay indoors

    D
And I can understand how a girl gets bored-

G                                          D
Too old to play and too young to mess around

G
She was a victim of the same disease

       D
That's roaming the streets and bites when it please

     G                                      D
And makes us wanna live forever or die in infamy
[Chorus]
D                                                      G
I wanna live in a world where I can keep my doors wide open

    Bm                   A                 D
But who knows what'd get in and what'd get out

                          G                      D
One of these nights, I'll sleep with the windows down

    G                                D
But not until that creatures in the pound
[Bridge]
G           D                       F                 D
No child is born knowing there's an ugly or evil thing

            Bm         D           A
When did my folks stop covering my eyes?

G                     D
Was it my brother who taught me about jealousy?

Bm                   A
Was it my sister who taught me about vanity?

G                       D
Was it that girl, that beautiful girl

Bm                   A
Thirsty for love and eager for attention

G                     D                         A
Was it that girl who taught me about destruction?
[Interlude] Bm A D [Chorus]
D
I wanna live in a world where I can keep my doors wide open

              Bm                           D*
But who knows what'd get in and what'd get out?
[Strumming change] D
D                            A
  I don't wanna be funny anymore.

D                            A
  I don't wanna be funny anymore.

G                                          D     A
Lately, I've been feeling like the odd man out.

G                                                A
I hurt my friends saying things I don't mean out loud.
[Verse 2]
D                            A
  I don't wanna be funny anymore.

         G                                             D
I got a too short skirt, maybe I can be the cute one.

          G                                              D G
Is there room in the band? I don't need to be the front man.

A                                 D
If not, then I'll be the biggest fan.
[Verse 3]
D                                 A
  I don't want the joke to be on me.

        G                                             D
Yeah, I'll buy the clothes and I'll be the best dressed.

        G                                       D G
Yeah, I'll read the books and I'll be the smartest.

A
I'll play guitar and I'll be the artist.
[Bridge]
G
  Try not to laugh.

A
  I know it'll be hard.

G
  I'm serious.

A                            G      A
  I know it's a first but...
[Verse 4]
D                             A
  I don't wanna be funny anymore.

G                                                D
I'll be the gossip, hear it through the grape vine.

G                                     D G
Pass it on, she's done with the old times.

A                                             G
  That funny girl doesn't wanna smile for a while.
