Fm7 Well you were just too damn aloof C7 Wearing your Morrissey t-shirt C7 The kind of girl that's born for youth Fm7 Well that's a blessing and some curse Fm7 I tell you son beware of those A# Bbm7 Who peak too early Fm7 C7 Cause all that magic can't be froze Fm7 And now it's you who ain't worthy A# Bbm7 So baby when I get famous Fm7 Everybody's gonna see C7 A# Bbm7 Awoh-oh-oh-oah Fm7 You never really knew me (Repeat as in above Verse & Chorus) Does it make sense to simplify Now we're knotted in riddles But I don't care, do you know why The girls are falling like skittles Whoever said you needed rights To tame your beauty I'll say goodbye to lonely nights Girls form an orderly queue please So baby when I get famous Everybody's gonna see Oh oh oh You never really knew me So given knowledge, given time I'd take us out of recession I'd tell the world that all was fine And that there freedom's a blessing Cause when I'm looking from the top You'll all seem smaller Ain't that what all us humans want? To stand that little bit taller So baby when I get famous Everybody's gonna see Oh oh oh You never really knew me x5
