Intro: Dm  C  Gm  Dm  C  Gm

          Dm                  C
When she turned eighteen she went astray
           Gm               Dm
With her brother's dealer, so they say
     Dm           C
She had the baby yesterday
Gm                    Dm
 Perhaps it's just a rumour
      Dm                 C
They kept her prisoner growing up
 Gm                  Dm
Told her Jesus was enough
       Dm          C
She's really into dirty stuff
Gm                    Dm
 Perhaps it's just a rumour

And if you asked her she'd say

     Dm
I'm just tryin' to work out
C        Gm        Dm
 How to be like myself
     Dm
I'm just tryin' to work out
C       Gm              Dm
 These cards I've been dealt

 Dm                  C
See that girl she's looking great
  Gm                Dm
She used to be quite overweight
     Dm           C
She may not be entirely straight
Gm                    Dm
 Perhaps it's just a rumour
Dm              C
Always did as she was told
   Gm            Dm
Apparently she's on the dough
  Dm             C
Spends it all on alcohol
Gm                    Dm
 Perhaps it's just a rumour

     Dm
I'm just tryin' to work out
C        Gm        Dm
 How to be like myself
     Dm
I'm just tryin' to work out
C       Gm              Dm
 These cards I've been dealt

         Dm
'Cause she did it, she did it
C
 Her bed is forbidden
Gm
He's fitting she isn't
C
 She keeps her face hidden
  Dm
She told 'em good riddance
     C
Her sister brought with 'em
  Gm
She wishes she didn't
C
And now they're all singing

     Dm
I'm just tryin' to work out
C        Gm        Dm
