Chords

* = one strum [Verse 1]
                 Em*
Well here I am again

                 D/F#*
The pretty but naïve one

    A*
The perky-breasted, giggly one night stand

              G*
Is it my destiny to be

          D*
A brief diversion

       A/E*                            G/D*
Just a detour on the journey of some man?
[Verse 2]
                       D
I'm not really one for askin'

                            A/C#
I'll play whatever role I'm cast in

                        D
Will smile with perfect teeth

                 A/E
And grimace underneath
[Chorus]
                     Em
I learned back in my teens

                       G
There's no point in protestin'

                          Em
If you look good in tight jeans

                             Asus4
That's what they'll want you dressed in

                              Gsus2
Once you're known for low-cut tops

                    D/F#
It's pretty hard to stop

                        Dsus4/E
It isn't easy to break free

[Verse 3]
                  D
I don't really remember

                   A/C#
I guess I chose to be here

                 D
I wasn't quite aware that

                       A
I was put here to be stared at
[Chorus]
                           Em
But this world I chose to live in

                 G
Is mostly run by men

                         Em
So you take what you are given

                        Asus4
Just to feel the love again

                           G
So throughout the endless week

                     D/F#
And all through the weekend

                  Dsus4/E
You will find me here

[Verse 4]
                              D
And look, I know this person fits me

                          A/D
I'm pretty good at being pretty

                               D
And I'm grateful, I mean to say

                              A
There are worse roles you can play
[Chorus]
                     Em
And I'd rather be up dancing

                   D     G
Than sat against a wall

                      Em
It's better to be leered at

                       Asus4
Than not desired at all
[Outro]
                     Gadd2
Who am I to dream of better

                      D/F#     Em7   Asus4
To dream that one day I will be

                          Gadd2
Something more than just collateral

                  D/F#
In someone else's battle

        Dsus4/E
I will be

A5*
      Something more than Nancy
