Verse 1:
A                           Gbm F
 There's always somebody taller with more of a wit
A                       Gbm       F                          A
 And he's equipped to enthral her and her friends think he's fit
                              Gbm F                   A
And you just can't measure up no, you don't have a prayer
                                 Gbm   F
Wishing that you'd made the most of her when she was there

Pre-chorus:
E                            Gb
They've got engaged, there's no intention of a wedding
D                          F
He's pinched your bird and he'd probably kick your head in

Chorus:
A                D
Bigger boys and stolen sweethearts
A                         D
Oh, you're better off without her anyway
A                   D
You said you wasn't sad to see her go
A         D
Yeah, but I know you were, though

Verse 2:
A                                  Gbm F
  Now you don't know what she's up to  you can only assume
A                                      Gbm  F
If she's not in the front of the shops then they've gone to his room
A                                Gbm        F
 Bet she's gone 'round in her school stuff, bet that's what he likes
A                               Gbm       F
 I know you thought she were different and you thought she were nice

Pre-chorus:
E                         Gb
But she's not nice, she's pretty xxxxxxx far from nice
      D                            F
She's looking at you funny, rarely looking at you twice

Chorus:
A                D
Bigger boys and stolen sweethearts
A                         D
Oh, you're better off without her anyway
A                   D
You said you wasn't sad to see her go
A               D
 Yeah, but it's so clear you were, though

Interlude:
A       Gbm F    A       Gbm (nc)
A       Gbm F    A       Gbm F
A       Gbm F    A       Gbm F

Verse 3:
A                                    Gbm F                 A
 Have you heard what she's been doing?   Never did it for me
                           Gbm     F
He picks her up at the school gate at twenty past three
A                               Gbm  F               A
She's been with all of the boys but never went very far
                              Gbm   F
And she wagged English and Science just to go in his car

Pre-chorus:
E                            Gb
They've got engaged, there's no intention of a wedding
D                        F
He's pinched me bird and he'd probably kick my head in, oh
   E                   Gb
Oh, now the girls have grown
              D                          Dm 
Yeah, but I'm sure that they still carry on in similar ways

Chorus:
A                D
Bigger boys and stolen sweethearts
A                      D
Oh, I'm better off without her anyway
A               D
I said I wasn't sad to see her go
A              D                   A
Yeah, but I'm only pretending, you know
          D                    A
Yeah, I'm only pretending, you know
      D                    A
I was only pretending, you know
      D                    A    D  A
I was only pretending, you know
