[C]

[Verse 1]
We were [Dm]three
little [Em]girls [C]fro[Em]m sch[F]ool.[C]
One was pretty, [F]one was [C]smart
And one was a borderline [G]fool.[C]
Well she's [Dm]still good lookin'
That wo[C]man hadn't
slipped [F]a bit.
[C]The smart one used her head
She [F]made her for[C]tune.
And [G]me, I cross the border every
chance I get.

[Verse 2]
[G][Gsus4]
We were the [C]girls of [G]the [F]50's.
Stoned rock and rollers in the 60's.
And [C]more than our names got changed
As [Am]the 70's slipped on by.
Now we're [G]80's ladies.
There ain't been much these ladies ain't
[C]tried.
[Em][C][F]

[Verse 3]
[G][F][Gsus4]
We've been [C]educated.
We got [Dm]liberated.
And had [Em]complicating matters with [F]men.
Oh, [C]we've said "I do"
And [F]we've signed "I don't"
[C]And we've sworn we'd
never do that [G]again.
Oh, we [C]burned our bras,
And we [Dm]burned our dinners
And we [C]burned our candles at both [F]ends.
And we've [C]had some children
Who [F]look just [C]like the [G]way
we did back [C]then.

[Verse 4]
Oh, but we're [Am]all [G]grown up now[F].
[Am]All [G]grown up,
But [F]none of us could tell
you quite how.
[Gsus4][F]
