One of the Boys Katy Perry
I tabbed this from her live KISS FM performance which helps with the strumming.
Some chords are variations but since I'm not that fluent with all my chords and
notes and what not I'm not sure what to name them.
But I think this is pretty close to the song so if you have any comments or
advice feel free to share. Thanks ;P
Capo on first fret

E2 B? Emaj7
I saw a spider I didn't scream
E2 B? Emaj7
Cause I can belch The alphabet just double dog dare me
E2 B? Emaj7
And I chose guitar over ballet
E2 B? Emaj7
And I take these suckers down because they just get in my way
[(C#/Dbm)C#/Dbm]The way you look a[(G#/Ab)G#/Ab]t me
[(A)A]Is kinda [(F#/Gb)F#/Gb]like a little sister
[(C#/Dbm)C#/Dbm]Rubbed by your goo[(G#/Ab)G#/Ab]dbyes
[(A)A]And it le[(F#/Gb)F#/Gb]aves me nothing but blisters
[E]So I don't want to be
[G#/Ab7]One of the boys
[A7]One of the guys
[C7]Just give me a chance
[A7]To prove to you tonight
[E]I just wanna be
[G#/Ab7]One of the girls
[A7]Pretty in pearls
[C7]Not one [E]of the boys
E2 B? Emaj7
So over the summer something changed
E2 B? Emaj7
I started reading 17 and shaving my legs
E2 B? Emaj7
And I studied Lolita religiously
E2 B? Emaj7
And I walked right into school and caught you drooling over me
[(C#/Dbm)C#/Dbm]Cause I know what [(G#/Ab)G#/Ab]you know
[(A)A]But now yo[(F#/Gb)F#/Gb]ur gonna have to take a number
[C#/Dbm)C#/Dbm]It's ok maybe one d[(G#/Ab)G#/Ab]ay
[(A)A]But not u[(F#/Gb)F#/Gb]ntil I get my diamond ring
[E]Cause I don't want to be
[G#/Ab7]One of the boys
[A7]One of the guys
[C7]Just give me a chance
[A7]To prove to you tonight
[E]I just wanna be
[G#/Ab7]your homecoming queen
[A7]pin-up poster dream
[C7]Not one of the[E] boys
[A7]I wanna [G#/Ab7]be a flower
[C#/Dbm]Not a dirty weed[F#/Gb]
[A7]And I wa[G#/Ab7]nna smell
[C#/Dbm]Like roses not a[F#/Gb] baseball team
[A7]And I swear m[G#/Ab7]aybe one day
[C#/Dbm]You're gonna wan[F#/Gb]na make out
[F#/Gb]Make out, make out
[E]with me
[G#/Ab7](Don't [A7]wan[C7]na [A7]be)[E]
[E]So I don't want to be
[G#/Ab7]One of the boys
[A7]One of the guys
[C7]Just give me a chance
[A7]To prove to you tonight
[E]I just wanna be
[G#/Ab7]One of the girls
[A7]Pretty in pearls
[C7]Not one [E]of the boys
