Pageant Material

        G
There's certain things you're 
s'posed to know
When you're a girl who grows up in 
    Am

  G
I try to use my common sense,
But my foot always ends up in my 
Am
mouth
       C
And if I had to walk a runway in 
high heels in front of the whole 
town
          Bm
I'd fall down
            C              D
And my mama cried when she realized

        G
I ain't pageant material
           Em
I'm always higher than my hair
And it ain't that I don't care about
      C
 world peace
But I don't see how I can fix it in 
                D
a swimsuit on a stage
         G
I ain't exactly Ms. Congenial
            Em

I'd rather lose for what I am than 
D              G
win for what I ain't

               (A)
God bless the girls who smile and 
hug
When they're called out as a runner 
      Am
up on TV
  G
I wish I could, but I just can't
Wear a smile when a smile ain't what
     Am
 I'm feelin'
    C
And who's to say I'm a 9.5, or a 4.0
                  Bm
If you don't even know me
            C              
Life ain't always roses and 
   D
pantyhose and

        G
I ain't pageant material

I'm always higher than my hair
And it ain't that I don't care about

        G
I ain't pageant material
         Em
The only crown is in my glass
They won't be handin' me a sash, and
        C
 that's okay, cause there's no way
You'll ever see me in a swimsuit on 
  D
a stage
         G
I ain't exactly Ms. Congenial

win for what I ain't
                Am             C  
Yeah I'd rather lose for what I am
