E5    E                          A
Sometimes is never quite enough
           E                          A
If you're flawless, then you'll win my love
E                           F#m
Don't forget to win first place
E                        A
Don't forget to keep that smile on your face


[Chorus]
      E    A   E
Be a good boy
                A     E
Try a little harder
                    A      E
You've got to measure up
                  A
And make me prouder

E

[Verse 2]
                              F#m7
How long before you screw it up?
    E
And how many times do I have to tell you
          F#m7
To hurry up?
      E               G#m   F#m7
With everything I do for you
    G#m                       A
The least you can do is keep quiet


[Chorus]
     E
Be a good girl
                          A    E
You've gotta try a little harder
                   A
That simply wasn't good enough
                A   E
To make us proud


[Bridge]
G
I'll live through you
                     G
I'll make you what I never was
                  A
If you're the best, then maybe so am I
                A
Compared to him, compared to her
                         G
I'm doing this for your own damn good
       G
You'll make up for what I blew
           B                      N.C.
What's the problem? Why are you crying?


[Chorus]
       B   A
Be a good boy
               B        A
Push a little farther now
              E       A
That wasn't fast enough
       E     A
To make us happy
        B   A             E      A
We'll love you just the way you are
           B   A
If you're perfect
