[Strophe]
A                           F#m F 
 There's always somebody taller with more of a wit 
A                       F#m       F                          A 
 And he's equipped to enthral her and her friends think he's fit 
                              F#m F                   A 
And you just can't measure up no, you don't have a prayer 
                                 F#m   F 
Wishing that you'd made the most of her when she was there
[Pre-Refrain]
E                            F# 
They've got engaged, there's no intention of a wedding 
D                          F 
He's pinched your bird and he'd probably kick your head in
[Refrain]
A                D 
Bigger boys and stolen sweethearts 
A                         D 
Oh, you're better off without her anyway 
A                   D 
You said you wasn't sad to see her go 
A         D 
Yeah, but I know you were, though
[Strophe]
A                                  F#m F 
  Now you don't know what she's up to  you can only assume 
A                                      F#m  F 
If she's not in the front of the shops then they've gone to his room 
A                                F#m        F 
 Bet she's gone 'round in her school stuff, bet that's what he likes 
A                               F#m       F 
 I know you thought she were different and you thought she were nice
[Pre-Refrain]
E                         F# 
But she's not nice, she's pretty fucking far from nice 
      D                            F 
She's looking at you funny, rarely looking at you twice
[Refrain]
A                D 
Bigger boys and stolen sweethearts 
A                         D 
Oh, you're better off without her anyway 
A                   D 
You said you wasn't sad to see her go 
A               D 
 Yeah, but it's so clear you were, though

 Have you heard what she's been doing?   Never did it for me 
                           F#m     F 
He picks her up at the school gate at twenty past three 
A                               F#m  F               A 
She's been with all of the boys but never went very far 
                              F#m   F 
And she wagged English and Science just to go in his car
[Pre-Refrain]
E                            F# 
They've got engaged, there's no intention of a wedding 
D                        F 
He's pinched me bird and he'd probably kick my head in, oh 
   E                   F# 
Oh, now the girls have grown 
              D                          Dm/F 
Yeah, but I'm sure that they still carry on in similar ways
[Refrain]
A                D 
Bigger boys and stolen sweethearts 
A                      D 
Oh, I'm better off without her anyway

I said I wasn't sad to see her go 
A              D                   A 
Yeah, but I'm only pretending, you know 
          D                    A 
Yeah, I'm only pretending, you know 
      D                    A 
I was only pretending, you know 
      D                    A    D  A 
I was only pretending, you know
