Blink 182 - Story Of a Girl

C9           G5 
This is the story of a girl  
                      A74                  D 
Who cried a river and drowned the whole world  
               Bm              C9 
And while she looks so sad in photographs  
   A74 
I absolutely love her  
          G5       D C9 G5 D C9 
When she smiles  
 

Bm                  C9 
How many days in a year  
    G5                          D 
She woke up with hope but she only found tears  
   Bm               C9 
And I can be so insincere  
G5                      D 
Making the promises never for real  
   Bm                          C9 
As long as she stands there waiting  
 G5                           D 
Wearin' the holes in the soles of her shoes  
Bm               C9 
How many days disappear  
     G5                        D 
You look in the mirror, so how do you choose  
 

       Em7                 Dadd4/F# 
Your clothes never wear as well the next day  
          G5                  A74 
And your hair never falls in quite the same way  
Em7               Dadd4/F#            A74 
You never seem to run out of things to say  
 

            C9            G5 
This is the story of a girl  
                        A74                 D 
Who cried a river and drowned the whole world 
                Bm               C9 
And while she looks so sad in photographs 
    A74 
I absolutely love her 
           G5       D C9 G5 D C9     
When she smiles 
 

Bm                     C9 
How many lovers would stay 
        G5                      D 
Just to put up with this shit day after day 
Bm                         C9 
How did we wind up this way  
G5                                D 
Watching our mouths for the words that we say 
    Bm                      C9 
As long as we stand here waiting 
 G5                                D 
Wearing the clothes of the souls that we choose 
Bm                    C9 
How do we get there today 
             G5                            D 
When we're walking too far for the price of our shoes 
       Em7                 Dadd4/F# 
Your clothes never wear as well the next day 
          G5                 A74 
And your hair never falls in quite the same way 
    Em7              Dadd4/F#             A74 
But you never seem to run out of things to say

               Bm                  C9

I absolutely love her  
          G5        
When she smiles
