I haven't figured out the bridge yet but the rest should be right...I think it's pretty easy!
no capo needed, standard tuning
[Verse 1]
She’s Emgot that kind of look that defies Cgravity
She’s the Amgreatest cook and she’s fatC-free
She’s Embeen to private school and she speaks Cperfect French
She’s got the Amperfect friends
Oh isn’t Cshe cool?
She Empractises Tai-Chi, she’d never Close her nerve
She’s more than Amyou deserve
She’s just Cfar better than me, hey hey
[Chorus]
 GSo don’t Dbother I won’t Amdie of decCeption
 GPromise you will Dnever see me Amcry, don’t feel Csorry
 GAnd don’t Dbother, I’ll be Amfine but she’s Cwaiting
 GThe ring you gave to Dher will lose its Amshine
So don’t Cmbother, be unkAmind.
G D Am C
[Verse 2]
I’m Emsure she doesn’t know who to touch you Clike I would
I beat her at Amthat one good, don’t you Cthink so?
She’s Emalmost six feet tall, she must think CI’m a flea
I’m really a Amcat, you see and it’s not Cmy last life at all
[Chorus]
 GSo don’t Dbother I won’t Amdie of decCeption
 GPromise you will Dnever see me Amcry, don’t feel Csorry

 GThe ring you gave to Dher will lose its Amshine
So don’t Cmbother, be unkind.
