Intro: Dbm B A E Verse: Dbm If you weren't born with it B You can buy a couple ornaments A Just be sure to read the warning, kids E Cause pretty soon you'll be bored of it Dbm B xxxxxx, hey girl if you wanna feel xxxxxx A You can always call up a professional E They stick pins in you like a vegetable Chorus: Dbm Kids forever, kids forever B Baby soft skin turns into leather A Don't be dramatic it's only some plastic (stop) No one will love you if you're unattractive Verse: Dbm Oh Mrs. Potato Head tell me, B is it true that pain is beauty? A Does a new face come with a warranty? E Will a pretty face make it better? Dbm Oh Mr. Potato Head tell me B How did you afford her surgery? A Do you swear you'll stay forever E Even if her face don't stay together Dbm B Even if her face don't stay together Interlude: A E Bridge: Dbm If you want a little more confidence B Potatoes turn to french fries, yeah it's common sense A All you need's a couple more condiments E And a hundred thousand dollars for some compliments Dbm It's such a waste B When little girls grow into their mothers face A But little girls are learning how to cut and paste E And pucker up their lips until they suffocate Chorus: Dbm Kids forever, kids forever B Baby soft skin turns into leather A Don't be dramatic it's only some plastic (stop) No one will love you if you're unattractive Dbm Oh Mrs. Potato Head tell me, B is it true that pain is beauty? A Does a new face come with a warranty? E Will a pretty face make it better? Dbm Oh Mr. Potato Head tell me B How did you afford her surgery? A Do you swear you'll stay forever E Even if her face don't stay together Dbm Stay forever, stay forever B Even if her face don't stay together A Stay forever, stay forever E Even if her face don't stay together Dbm Oh Mrs. Potato Head tell me, B is it true that pain is beauty? A Does a new face come with a warranty? E Will a pretty face make it better? Dbm Oh Mr. Potato Head tell me B How did you afford her surgery? A Do you swear you'll stay forever (stop) Even if her face don't stay together Dbm Stay forever, stay forever B Even if her face don't stay together A Stay forever, stay forever E Even if her face don't stay together Outro: Dbm B A E This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.

Just a small tip, if you don’t feel confident singing ‘sexual’ you can change it to ‘Beautiful’ it works just fine 🙂
Ugh I love Melanie so much
a small tip:
if you wanna play in front of family or friends or if you just don’t like the word you can change sexual to special !! it’s what i do :p
-4 is so easy and sounds the best! my strumming pattern is d-uuu-d
THIS SONG JS SO AMAZING
I HONESTLY DIE EVERY TIME I HEAR IT. MELS SO TALENTED. THIS SONG IS SO BEAUTIFUL AND THE MESSAGE IS BEAUTIFUL AND ITS SUCH A GREAT SONG. MEL WILL START THE REVOLUTION. SHE CAN TOTALLY GET THE MESSAGE OUT
I think that -4 sounds best on uke ANDDDD it is much easier so if you ask me for any advice that is what I’m gonna give you and when I play this song I dont use a strumming pattern I just go down on that chord for the line if that makes any sense so yeah bye and have a gr8 day
Any alternitives for E? I cannot play E. :c ( I’m sorry for spelling things wroooooong )
what sounds good for me is if you strum down two times and then tap the ukulele for each chord, let me know how it sounds 🙂
-4 is the easiest one.
i love this song, on -4 i find it the easiest
I can’t really do E because I have short fingers so I do ab… it still sounds relatively the same.
+1 is a lil easier hehe (:
Little tip, on the “ooh-ooh, ooh” after lines like “they stick pins in ya like a vegetable, ooh-ooh, ooh”, play G. It sounds so good!
-4 is the easiest 🙂
Usually I dont play the easiest version and I usually play the original no matter what the chords are (I have been playing the uke for a long time) but for this song I play it in -4 because it sounds best with my voice.
+1
I find 0 reasonable and I like singing with that and I wouldn’t call myself advanced in ukulele
I LOVE THIS THANK YOU
Transpose in -4 is DEFINITELY the easiest, the chords are c, g, f, and a(not in that order tho)
-2 Is perfect!!!! 😀
