Gb                           B   
I like your face despite your nose
 Gb                   B
17 and a half years old
    Gb                 B
I'm worrying about my brother finding out
            Gb                        B
Where's the fun in doing what you're told?


        Gb
I said "No!
Db                   B
Oh give it a rest, I could persuade you
             Gb                    Db
I'm not your typical, stoned 18 year old
           B
Give me a night I'll make you.
               Gb                           Db
I know you're looking for salvation in the secular age,
              B
But girl I'm not your saviour"
Gb               Db
Wrestle to the ground
    B
God help me now


Chorus -repeat Gb Db E-:
Cause they're just girls breaking hearts
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
But she can't be what you need if she's 17
They're just girls
They're just girls


  Gb                       B
a pair of frozen hands to hold,
             Gb                        B
Oh she's so southern so she feels the cold,
                 Gb                
One moment I was tearing off your blouse,
           B
Now you're living in my house.
     Gb                        B
What happened to just messing around?


       Gb            Db           B
I said "Yo, I think I better go; I can't take you.
         Gb                       Db                    B
You just sit and get stoned with 30 year olds and you think you've made it.
      Gb                             Db                            B
Well, shouldn't you be xxxxing with somebody your age instead of making changes?"
Gb               Db
Wrestle to the ground
B
God help me now


Chorus -repeat Gb Db E-:
Cause they're just girls breaking hearts
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
But she can't be what you need if she's 17
They're just girls
They're just girls


    B -x2-                 Gb Db
I told her from the start
    B -x2-                 Gb Db
Destined to be hard
    B -x2-                
I told her from the start
     Gb          Db
I'll break your heart
     B -x2-                
Destined to be hard
 Gb         Db   
Break your heart


        Gb     Db                     B
I said "Yo, I think you'd better go; I can't take you.
               Gb                           Db
I know you're looking for salvation in the secular age,
             B
But girl I'm not your saviour.
         Gb                              Db                        B
Well, shouldn't you be xxxxing with somebody your age instead of making changes?"
Gb               Db
Wrestle to the ground
     B
God help me now


Outro -repeat Gb Db E-:
Cause they're just girls breaking hearts
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
But she can't be what you need if she's 17
They're just girls
They're just girls

They're just girls breaking hearts
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
But she can't be what you need if she's 17
They're just girls
They're just girls

Cause they're just girls...
Just girls, they're just girls...
