D G

Haven't you heard what they say about you

When you walk out the room, she's so rough

Don't disgrace yourself

You don't feel your worth

D Em

You're pure gorgeous girl

Chorus:

D G

How'd you get off when your heart's not in it

Bm Em

How'd you get love when you're miles away

D G

Why'd ye reveal him all of your secrets

Don't give it up, don't give it up, don't give it up

Don't give it up, don't give it up girl

Don't give it up girl

Catch yourself on, you're so wrong

G Bm Em

You belong with someone who will say 'let's wait a while'

Catch your breath, you just met

He won't think nothing less¨

He'll sleep then sprint away

D G Em

And he won't see your worth

You're pure gorgeous girl

Chorus

D G Bm Em

You're a good girl and I know you like a laugh

D G Bm Em

You're a good girl let them see you've got some class

'Cos you're pure gorgeous girl, you're pure gorgeous girl
