Strumming
There is no strumming pattern for this song yet. Create and get +5 IQ
(Note: not sure if 100% accurate. This is just how I like to play it.)
[Verse]
B E
Bite your face to spite your nose
B E
17 and a half years old
B E
I'm worrying about my brother finding out
B E
Where's the fun in doing what you're told?
B
I said "No!
F# E
Oh give it a rest, I could persuade you
B F#
I'm not your typical, stoned 18 year old
E
Give me a night I'll make you.
B F#
I know you're looking for salvation in the secular age,
E
But girl I'm not your saviour"
B F#
Wrestle to the ground
E
God help me now
[Chorus]
B, F#, E (in between the F# and E, you can slide from the fourth fret to
the sixth, on the D-string, like they do in the song)- repeat throughout
B F# E
Cause they're just girls breaking hearts
B F# E
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
B F# E
But she can't be what you need if she's 17
B F# E
They're just girls
B F# E
They're just girls
[Verse]
B E
A pair of frozen hands to hold,
B E
Oh she's so southern so she feels the cold,
B
One moment I was tearing off your blouse,
E
Now you're living in my house.
B E
What happened to just messing around?
B F# E
I said "Yo, I think I better go; I can't take you.
B F# E
You just sit and get stoned with 30 year olds and you think you've made it.
B F# E
Well, shouldn't you be fucking with somebody your age instead of making changes?"
B F#
Wrestle to the ground
E
God help me now
[Chorus]
B F# E
Cause they're just girls breaking hearts
B F# E
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
B F# E
But she can't be what you need if she's 17
B F# E
They're just girls
B F# E
They're just girls
[Verse]
E (x2) B F#
I told her from the start
E (x2) B F#
Destined to be hard
E (x2)
I told her from the start
B F#
I'll break your heart
E (x2)
Destined to be hard
B F#
Break your heart
B F# E
I said "Yo, I think you'd better go; I can't take you.
B F#
I know you're looking for salvation in the secular age,
E
But girl I'm not your saviour.
B F# E
Well, shouldn't you be fucking with somebody your age instead of making changes?"
B F#
Wrestle to the ground
E
God help me now
[Chorus]
(Chorus progression as before: B, F#, E, with the slide)
B F# E
Cause they're just girls breaking hearts
B F# E
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
B F# E
But she can't be what you need if she's 17
B F# E
They're just girls
B F# E
They're just girls
B F# E
Cause they're just girls breaking hearts
B F# E
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
B F# E
But she can't be what you need if she's 17
B F# E
They're just girls
B F# E
They're just girls
B F# E
Cause they're just girls...
B F# E
Just girls, they're just girls...

capo on second and A, E and D sound great too - makes it easy to play acoustically and simpler.
+31

transpose -4, put capo on fourth fret, play with G, Cadd9, and Dsus4 for acoustic
+4

Am i the only one who thinks C, G and Am sound good if you have a lower voice (capo 2)?!!?!?!
+2
