[Intro] Gm Am Gm Dm D E7
               A7
That’s not my name!
[Verse 1]
                    Am7
Doesn’t anybody ever get it right, Carrie,

                                         G7
When’ll they remember I am Carrie White? Carrie,

           Gm7
Is it any harder to say than

          D       F                     G
God damn total spastic, and weirdo and dumb bitch

A                Am
Doesn’t anybody think that I can hear? I hear!

                                                      G
‘speically when I’ve got them screaming in my ear, I hear!
Every day they mock me and push me around,
        F
‘til I drop

                        E            A
If I had a wish, God, I wish they’d stop
When will they, I wish they’d
                                 A
When will they, when will they, when will they?

A
Sometimes their hatred is out of control,

A
God how they hurt me.
Mama says suffering is good for the soul,
         Gm
But they hurt me
[Chorus]
                F
And if I could, I’d bring them all,

G
Down to their knees!

F                      G                C
I’d make them sorry forever for teasing Carrie

F       D
Carrie, Carrie!
G A [Verse 2]
G
I will not cry,

D      G
I am okay,

                  D          G
I try so hard to play their way.

                    D
Why do they find it so hard to say Carrie?

                            G
Why do they always treat me so bad,

     A
They all know my name?

      D
It’s Carrie!

                              G
I don’t know why they all get so mad,

     A                D G
It’s always the same!

             A   D    G
What’s going on deep in me,

              A       D      G
All of these feelings suddenly?

        A         D            G
If I am changing, will I still be;

D
Carrie?

             G           A
Or what if I am somebody new?

  D          G              A
Imagine, the things I might do!
[Bridge]
  D#
I might take a chance,

G#                   D#  G#
I’ve always wondered how

   D#
Or maybe I’ll dance

    G#                              A# D#
And try to laugh more than I do now.

        G#                  D#
And the world will open its eyes,

        Fm7                        A#7      F#
And for once the whole world will recognize Carrie!

     A                    Am
Then all those people who scream night and day:

      A          A7
“Poor praying Carrie!”
They’d see the new me,
    A
And they might even say:

            Gm7
“Look! It’s Carrie!”
[Chorus]
    Gm       F
And finally, I’d hear that word,

G
Sounding so sweet!

F                           G          C
Thousands of voices forever repeating: Carrie,

F       Dm
Carrie, Carrie!

Bm       Am               G  D
I am the sound of distant thunder,

            A
A colour, a flame!

    F
I’m Carrie!

Dm     C               A# F
I am a song of endless wonder,

     F
That no one will claim.

    G#              A#
But someday, oh my, someday!

                     F C D# Gm C# B F
Someone will know my name!
