LINK (MIDDLE 8 ==> last VERSE)

This part may be played using just a G6 throughout, but the organ plays 
some interesting notes in the higher register. So if you want that, I’d
suggest the following. If you don’t, just leave it out.


  G6               G6add9                            G6

INTRO
| C | Dm7 | Am | F |
| C | Dm7 | Am | F |


VERSE
C                Dm7
 Here I am again, the same old situation
Am                      F
 Why does the guy thing have to be so complicated?
C
 I should've played it cool, 
Dm7  
 Instead I've made a fool
Am                F
 Oh, the things I do


BRIDGE
           C             Caug
'Cause I'm young and I'm dumb
     C6                    C7
I do stupid things when it comes to love
    F             [ Fsus2 ] Fm
And even if I always end up crying
          Fm                    | C |
Well, you can't blame a girl for trying   
          [break]


CHORUS
C        Dm7           Am
   Oh oh oh oh - Oh oh oh oh
        F                     [ C ]
No, you can't blame a girl for trying
C  Dm7         Am              F
       Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh


VERSE
C                          Dm7
 I should've shut my mouth, I could've kept it quiet
Am                           F
 I might have freaked him out 'cause I was so excited
C
 But I just couldn't wait
Dm7
 I took a leap of faith
Am                F
 Oh, the things I say


BRIDGE
           C             Caug
'Cause I'm young and I'm dumb
     C6                    C7
I do stupid things when it comes to love
    F             [ Fsus2 ] Fm
And even if I always end up crying
          Fm                    | C |
Well, you can't blame a girl for trying   
          [break]


CHORUS
C        Dm7           Am
   Oh oh oh oh - Oh oh oh oh
        F                     [ C ]
No, you can't blame a girl for trying
C        Dm7           Am
   Oh oh oh oh - Oh oh oh oh
     F 
No - oh


MIDDLE 8
    Am      Em
And I think sometimes 
F
 I tend to be my own worst enemy
    Am    Em
And maybe someday 
D                                                  [ D7 ]
 I'm gonna catch a shooting star falling out of the blue
         |  G6  |  G6add9  |  %  |  G6  |
Do what I do                      [break]


VERSE
       C                      Dm7
And ... just as I'm giving up, my heart is palpitating
Am                     F
 Here comes another one and I'm so intoxicated
C
 Being where I've been 
Dm7
 I know that in the end
Am               F
 I'll do it all again


BRIDGE (variation)
           C             Caug
'Cause I'm young and I'm dumb
     C6                    C7
I do stupid things when it comes to love
    F                      | Dm | Dm C |
And even if I always end up crying
      F                                   G
Well, love will find me, there ain't no denying
         G                     [ C ]
That you can't blame a girl for trying
        [break]


CHORUS (coda)
C        Dm7           Am
   Oh oh oh oh - Oh oh oh oh
        F                     [ C ]
No, you can't blame a girl for trying
C  Dm7               Am
     Mmh mmh mmh mmh mmh
 F              C
 Oh oh oh oh oh mmh
[break]
