The Ugly Couple Song

• C

Verse 1
C
I was never pretty 
Not even as a child
These gaps between my teeth
They showed up when I smiled

F
My hair always stood straight up
                          C
Like it was terrified to fall
G
In school it wasn't friends
F
Or charisma that I lacked
G
But in elementary pictures
            F
They always put me in the back
C
And I wasn't tall

Verse 2
C
Oh these guns of mine never did arrive
Didn't matter what I'd lift
My acne was invincible
My dandruff was no gift

F
My voice was high as a lady's
                       C
And it's still that way today

G
But you know I'm glad I waited
F
That is, I was made to wait
G
'Cause if I'd been taken
     F                                          C
I would have missed the best date in the world

Chorus 
            F           G                C
She's got a heart that's bigger than her hair
           F        G                 C
She might never be a model but who cares
          F          G                        Am
She's one cloud and some wings from bein' an angel
Dm            F        G
And who knows we might make
              C
Something beautiful

Verse 3
C
Well I have reached maturity
Finally grew into my fro
I guess my ears they missed the news
'Cause they just keep a growin'
     F
I have some great, great dance moves
                             C
They never seem to move the girls

    G
But I always hope I'd find the one
    F
Who'd really digged my look
  G
And one night at the comic store
 F
We both grabbed the same book
C
One about dragons

Verse 4
C
Well I met her down at Charley's
She spilled her drink on me
She laughed and said that wasn't usually
How she liked her tea
 F
And somehow we got caught up in an evenin'
                        C
Full of kisses and romancin'
G
It wasn't really her perfume
F
That made me think her sweet
G
But more how she didn't mind
F
Me stepping on her feet
         C
When we were dancin'

Chorus
            F            G              C
She's got a laugh that's louder than her pants
           F             G               C
She might never walk a runway or do a pole dance
          F             G                  Am
She's one cloud and some wings from bein' an angel
  Dm         F          G
And who knows we might make
          C
Something beautiful
Verse 5
C
My friends have all been telling me
I ain't looked this good in years
Nothing like a woman
Make you wash behind your ears

F 
She calls me stinky
                        C
I call her ferret face or MO
G
But it ain't all fun and pet names
F
No, we've been known to fight
G
About whose better lookin'
F
But it never lasts all night
C
On we go

Chorus
          F               G                C
She's got a smile that's brighter than her nails
         F              G             C
She might never win a pageant as a female
      F                     G          
She's mine and we might some day
Am
Have a little one of our own
Dm            F             G
And who knows we might make
C
Something beautiful
