Intro

[Am] [Am]
[Am] [Am] [Am] [Am]

Verse 1

[Am]When you took me home, you knew who you were taking
Not some [F]Debbie debutante, standing in an [Am]apron, frying up your bacon

Pre-Chorus 1

[Am]My house and my mouth and my mind get kinda trashy
I've never been to jail, but Hell, I wouldn't put it past me

Chorus

[G]So,[Am] if you want the girl next door, some Virgin Mary metaphor
Your[F] cardboard cutout on the wall, your paper or your Barbie doll
With[Am] perfect hair and a perfect dress, I'm really just the perfect mess
And[F] I ain't nothing less or nothing more, so [G]baby, if you want the girl
next door

Post-Chorus

Then go next [Am]door and go right now, and don't look back, don't turn around
And don't call [F]me when you get bored, yeah, if you want the girl next door
Then go [Am]next door

Instrumental

Verse 2

[Am]Sorry, I ain't sorry that I ain't your Marsha Brady, uh-uh
[F]If I ever met her, bet she'd probably [Am]hate me
'cause you'd wanna date me

Pre-Chorus 2

My [Am]heart and my head and my bed can get real twisted
And you wouldn't be the first to think you're gonna go and fix it

Chorus

[G]So,[Am] if you want the girl next door, some Virgin Mary metaphor
Your[F] cardboard cutout on the wall, your paper or your Barbie doll

next door
