A smile on your face, but not in your eyes.

         B                        C#
I could pick your face out in an FBI file,
     B                     C#
You may look pretty but I can't say the same
          F#  C#         F#  C#
for your mind... Ah, ah, ah.

You walk up to me and try to look shy.
The red round your eyes says that you ain't a child.

Chorus

Well, I've seen your face, in a trashy magazine.
You know where you're going, but I don't like the places
you've been......Ah, ah, ah..

F# C# D#m F# B F# B C#

I can pick your face out from the front or behind.
You may look pretty, but I can't say the same

Ah, ah, ah.

If I'm not impressed, you can still cry.

Chorus

        B                                    C#
By the time you're thirty, gonna look sixty-five.
     B                            C#
You won't look pretty, and your friends will have
                F#  C#
kissed you goodbye.

Chorus

 F#             D#m
ride on, baby, ride on, baby. -  3 times
