[Intro]
Cadd9 D Em Gadd9

 
[Verse 1]
  Cadd9                           D
I learned from my mother what she learned from her mother
    Em                       Gadd9
Sit still, look pretty, just flow with the water
         Cadd9                        D
Feel the ache in my stomach, but I'll go a little longer
    Em                       Gadd9
No, it won't kill me just to try a bit harder

 
[Pre-Chorus]
    Cadd9    D      Em  Gadd9
But you will never know
       Cadd9       D      Em     Gadd9
'Cause that's just how it goes, oh

 
[Chorus]
Cadd9
Girls will be girls
         D                            Em
Hold the weight of the world behind a painted smile
        Gadd9
Sayin' "Oh, I'm fine" and
Cadd9
Girls will be there
          D                              Em
Hold your hand when you can't get out of bed sometimes
        Gadd9
Sayin' "You'll be fine" 'cause

 
[Post-Chorus]
Cadd9                        D
Girls will be girls, will be girls, will be girls
        Em                            Gadd9
Will be girls, will be girls, will be girls
Cadd9                        D
Girls will be girls, will be girls, will be girls
        Em                            Gadd9
Will be girls, will be girls, will be girls

 
[Verse 2]
    Cadd9               D
You picked me up in the middle of the night
   Em                     Gadd9
He broke my heart for the hundredth time
    Cadd9                    D
You knew what to say, you've been here before
           Em                                Gadd9
And you've seen all the pain that he would ignore

 
[Pre-Chorus]
    Cadd9       D      Em    Gadd9
Oh, that's just how it goes (Oh, oh)

 
[Chorus]
Cadd9
Girls will be girls
         D                            Em
Hold the weight of the world behind a painted smile
        Gadd9
Sayin' "Oh, I'm fine" and
Cadd9
Girls will be there
          D                              Em
Hold your hand when you can't get out of bed sometimes
        Gadd9
Sayin' "You'll be fine" 'cause

 
[Post-Chorus]
Cadd9                        D
Girls will be girls, will be girls, will be girls
        Em                            Gadd9
Will be girls, will be girls, will be girls
Cadd9                        D
Girls will be girls, will be girls, will be girls
        Em                            Gadd9
Will be girls, will be girls, will be girls (Oh oh)
Cadd9                        D
Girls will be girls, will be girls, will be girls
        Em                            Gadd9
Will be girls, will be girls, will be girls (Oh)
Cadd9                        D
Girls will be girls, will be girls, will be girls
        Em                            Gadd9
Will be girls, will be girls, will be girls

 
[Outro]
Cadd9
Girls will be girls
         D                            Em
Hold the weight of the world behind a painted smile
        Gadd9
Sayin' "Oh, I'm fine"
