[intro]

C         C       F   G       C       C       F   G
  I wanna be your girlfriend, I wanna be your new love
C       C      F   G    C    C    G    F
I wanna be the one that you can't get enough of
C       C       F   G       C      C      F   G
I wanna be your girlfriend, nobody else's but yours
Am      Em     F   G   C      C  G    F
I wanna be the one who you'll do anything for

C  C                 G    F     C  C    G         F
   Never thought I'd ever wind up  in a daze like this
C  C                 G    F      C    C         G       F
   Never thought I'd ever find myself wondering how you kiss
  G       G      C     C        D    D     G       G
I see you nearly every day, and everyday I lose my nerve
     G       G      F       C       D        D     G      G
That I built up the night before, rehearsing every single word

C         C       F   G       C       C       F   G
  I wanna be your girlfriend, I wanna be your new love
C       C      F   G    C    C    G    F
I wanna be the one that you can't get enough of
C  C  F  G    C  C  F  G
[instrumental]

C     C          G         F     C    C         G        F
  You used to be just this guy I knew from that same old scene
C     C        G        F           C        C       G   C
  For all the time that I've known you, just now I'm noticing
     G    G           C     C           D          D   G       G
That everything there is to feel, feels worse than any teenage crush
    G       G          F         C         D     D         G     G
And all the times that I've been near you, now I can't get near enough

    C       C       F   G       C      C      F   G
Oh, I wanna be your girlfriend, nobody else's but yours
Am      Em     F   G   C      C  G    F
I wanna be the one who you'll do anything for

F (2 measures)         E7(b9)/G# (2 measures)
  I just keep on hoping that you're gonna see
C/G  (2 measures)           D7/F# (2 measures)
  If I could notice you then you could notice me
F      F/E    F/D     F/C    G/B   G/A    G     G
  Then I'd be more to you, ohhhhh, I just wanna be....
