(note: I prefer to play this song in a half step down tuned guitar. I think the songs sounds closer to the 
original that way; Kimberly Perry plays it live like this; You can play Em instead of E5 and A instead of A7
but I think it sounds better with E5 and A7)
He was E5sweet as cotton candy at a county fair
Well he's a A7cold drink of water B7with butterscotch E5hair
He swore that he loved me well I E5guess he probably did
'Cause when he A7rolled up his sleeve one dayB7,   I saw my name next to hisE5  
A Cnew tattoo stinging like a hornet, Gtwo little hearts like a big red warning
CI wasn't looking for a permanent thing, first B7comes the ink, then comes the ring
