She Might Have Been a Nice Girl Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
She [Em]might have been a [G]nice girl
If she hadn't had a [C]draggy mother
She might have been a [G]good chick
If she hadn't had a [C]rotten father
She might have played the [G]right hunch
If she hadn't been so [C]narrow- minded
She might have had a [G]whole bunch
If she hadn't been so [C]far behind it
Oh [G]does it [F]hurt when you know you can't
[C]play it the way that your beau [G]knows
Oh does it [F]hurt when you know you can't
[C]say it the way that your beau [G]knows
And you [F]know that that's the
[C]way that the show [G]goes
And you [Am]know it really has to go [Em]on.

[Verse 2]
She drank the army's [G]red wine
But she never found a [C]mo
ment's pleasure
She smelled the salty [G]sea brine
But she never found the [C]buried treasure
She might have played the [G]chords right
But the song was never [C]meant for singing
She might have really [G]broke loose
But she never made it [C]past the clinging
[G]I can see that it hur[F]ts when you know you can't
[C]play it the way that your beau [G]knows
I can see that it [F]hurts when you know you can't
[C]say it the way that your beau [G]knows
And you [F]know that that's the
[C]way that the show [G]goes
And you [Am]know it really has [Em]to go [G]on.[C][G]
