[Intro]
G Am C D x2
 
[Verse 1]
G          Am         C             D
 State the obvious, I didn’t get my perfect fantasy
G     Am                C                        D
 I realize you love yourself more than you could ever love me
G          Am          C                D           G
 So go and tell your friends that I’m obsessive and crazy
        Am              C           D
 That’s fine; you won't mind if I say
           C
And by the way...
 
 
[Chorus]
            G          Am
I hate that stupid old pickup truck
    C            D
You never let me drive
         G        Am
You’re a redneck, heartbreak
      C             D
Who’s really bad at lying
G           Am       C
So watch me strike a match
          D
On all my wasted time
   C
As far as I’m concerned you’re
D
Just another picture to burn
 
G Am C D
 
 
[Verse 2]
G           Am
 There’s no time for tears,
          C            D
 I’m just sitting here planning my revenge
G                Am
 There’s nothing stopping me
      C              D
 From going out with all of your best friends
G           Am      C          D
 And if you come around saying sorry to me
    G             Am           C            D
 My daddy’s gonna show you how sorry you’ll be
 
 
[Chorus]
                  G          Am
Cause I hate that stupid old pickup truck
    C            D
You never let me drive
         G        Am
You’re a redneck, heartbreak
      C             D
Who’s really bad at lying
G           Am       C
So watch me strike a match
          D
On all my wasted time
   C
In case you haven’t heard, you’re
D
Just another picture to burn
 
G Am C D
 
 
[Bridge]
    C
And if you’re missing me,
             D
You’d better keep it to yourself
      C                  G6add11
Cause coming back around here
         D
Would be bad for your health...
 
 
[Chorus]
                  G          Am
Cause I hate that stupid old pickup truck
    C         D
You never let me drive
         G        Am
You’re a redneck, heartbreak
      C             D
Who’s really bad at lying
G           Am       C
So watch me strike a match
          D
On all my wasted time
   C
In case you haven't heard
  D
I really really hate that 
 
G          Am
Stupid old pickup truck
    C            D
You never let me drive
         G        Am
You’re a redneck, heartbreak
      C             D
Who’s really bad at lying
G           Am       C
So watch me strike a match
          D
On all my wasted time
   C
As far as I’m concerned you’re
D                            G Am
Just another picture to burn
 
C           D           G    Am
Burn, burn, burn, baby, burn
       C            D          G    Am C
You’re just another picture to burn
D      G
 Baby, burn...

+14

i don't really know who these people are that re saying that your lyrics aren't accurate. i went through the entire song word-for-word @ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WS6aRdlFFVQ&feature=related and it's perfect. As for your tabs... i haven't noticed a single mistake in the whole thing. Great Job. 5 Stars

^^ No, that's how the original version goes. They changed it in the video version. (and probably the radio edit?)
