B There's certain things you're s'posed to know C#m When you're a girl who grows up in the south B I try to use my common sense, C#m But my foot always ends up in my mouth E And if I had to walk a runway in high heels in front of the whole town D#m I'd fall down E F# And my mama cried when she realized Chorus: B I ain't pageant material G#m I'm always higher than my hair E And it ain't that I don't care about world peace But I don't see how I can fix it in a swimsuit F# on a stage B I ain't exactly Ms. Congenial G#m Sometimes I talk before I think, I try to fake it but I can't C#m I'd rather lose for what E F# B I am than win for what I ain't God bless the girls who smile and hug When they're called out as a runner up on TV I wish I could, but I just can't Wear a smile when a smile ain't what I'm feelin' And who's to say I'm a 9.5 Or a 4.0 if you don't even know me Life ain't always roses and pantyhose And... Chorus I ain't pageant material The only crown is in my glass They won't be handin' me a sash And that's okay, cause there's no way You'll ever see me in a swimsuit on a stage I ain't exactly Ms. Congenial Sometimes I talk before I think, I've tried to fake it but I can't I'd rather lose for what I am than win for what I ain't Yeah I'd rather lose for what I am than win for what I ain't You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsB  C#m  D#m  E  F#  G#m  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
