[Verse 1]

When I was a young girl
  F
I went to Catholic school
G
Hung around all the nuns
F
That was so uncool
G
All the other girls were wearing
F
Makeup in fourth grade
    G
But I was not allowed
F                  Dm
I wore anklets and prayed

[Verse 2]

Paula Duvle dyed her hair
    F
And started going out with boys
G
I was into homework
    F
And trying to get toys
   G
It was around that time
     F
I discovered what I was
    G
For instance I said 'Policeman'
    F                  Dm
But Paula called them 'Fuzz'

[Verse 3]
G
Then I went to high school
   F
It really hit me hard
  G
I started finding out that
          F
They were calling me retard
G
In the gymnasium
F
I was not a hit
G
There was something really interesting
          F               Dm
About the way my gym suit fit
