VERSE
Don't turn away, what are you looking at?
He was so happy on the day that he met her
Say, what are you looking at?
I was a superman but looks are deceiving
The rollercoaster ride's a lonely one
I'd pay a ransom note to stop it from steaming
Hey! what are you looking at?
She was a teenage girl when she met me...


-CHORUS-

The girl got reasons, they all got reasons


VERSE
Hey! what are you looking at?
She was a happy girl the day that she left me
She was a happy girl the day that she left me
She was a sour girl the day that she met me
The day that she left me

This TAB should be pretty darn close. I saw STP perform this song on
Leno the
other night so it's quite accurate.

I'm going to put 2 different choruses here. The first chorus is the
close to
actual chords Dean Deleo uses. I think he changes up the order, so
feel free to
interchange the chord shapes how you like. The second chorus is an
easier
version. It's what I played before I saw them perform it on Leno.
Sorry, no
rhythm is implied here. Use your imagination.

A couple of versions of this are floating around but I haven't seen any that I
think are right - so here's mine. I got this from watching some footage of them
playing it live acoustically - with my acoustic in hand and pausing the picture.
I also play this acoustically in my band and it sounds bang on - so in my
opinion - this is it. Please note that no timing or strumming patterns are
implied here. Anyone who is half way proficient on the guitar should be able
to get that from listening to the CD.
