A#m
Some girls play the game
F#                               A#m
They all walk and talk and they dress the same
         F#
Nothing new to say (Nothing new to say)

Don't they realize
It's so easy to see right through their disguise?
Makes me wonder why

D#m
When the whole world's turning left
     F
Is when I'm going right
   D#m
I need someone to let me be
      F/A
Just who I am inside

Chorus:
          A#m
'Cause a girl like me is just
                        F#
a little different from all the rest
And a girl like me
Never gonna settle for second best
Could it be a boy like you?
Can give me anything if I asked him to?
                                D#m
Would take all my dreams and to make them true
                             F/A
Show me all the reasons you oughta be,
                A#m
with a girl like me (Girl like me)
F#                 A#m
Oh-woah-oh, oh-oh (Woah-oh, oh-oh)
           F#
Just like me (Just like me)

The possibility
Got me trippin', thinkin' of what could be
Between you and me (You and me)
Still, I need to know
Should I keep this feeling or let it go?
I can't wait no more
So now's the time to speak your mind
And show me what you feel
So tell me if you wanna take
a chance on something real

Chorus:
'Cause a girl like me (Girl like me),
just a little different from all the rest
And a girl like me
Never gonna settle for second best
(Never gonna settle)
Could it be a boy like you?
Can give me anything if I asked him to?
(If I asked him to?)
To take all my dreams and then make them true
Show me all the reasons you oughta be,
with a girl like me
Like me
Oh-woah-oh, oh-oh (Oh-woah-oh, oh-oh)
Just like me (Just like me)

A#m
Mirror, mirror, on the wall
 F#
Catch me now before I fall
A#m
Wish I may or wish I might
F#
Find the answer here tonight

Mirror, mirror, on the wall (Yeah, yeah)
Catch me now before I fall (Before I fall)
Wish I may or wish I might
Find the answer here tonight

'Cause when the whole world's turning left
Is when I'm going right
I need someone who'll let me
be just who I am inside

Chorus:
'Cause a girl like me is just
a little different from all the rest
And a girl like me
Never gonna settle for second best
Could it be a boy like you?
(Could it be a boy like you?)
Can give me anything if I asked him to?
(If I asked him to?)
Would take all my dreams and then make them true
Show me all the reasons you oughta be,
with a girl like me
Oh-woah-oh, oh-oh (Woah-oh, oh-oh)
Just like me (Just like me)

Mirror, mirror, on the wall (On the wall)
Catch me now before I fall (Oh-woah-oh, oh-oh)
Wish I may or wish I might
Find the answer here tonight
'Cause a girl like me, just
a little different from all the rest
And a girl like me (Girl like me),
never gonna settle for second best
