C       Dm           F         
We were three little girls from school 
C               F       C    
One was pretty, one was smart 
                          G 
and one was a borderline fool 
C          Dm                  
Well she's still good lookin', 
     F  
that woman hasn't slipped a bit 
    C                           
The smart one used her head, 
  F        C           G  
she made her fortune and me, 

I cross the border every chance I get 

                   C                            F  
We were the girls of the 50's, 
                 F  
la-la, la-la 
F 
Stoned rock and rollers in the 60's 
   C                                
And more than our names got changed 
       Am              F   
as the 70's slipped on by 
          G                      
Now we're 80's ladies, 
                               C 
There ain't been much these ladies ain't tried      
 
           C         
We've been educated, 
       Dm                F 
We got liberated and had complicating 

matters with men 
          C                     F         C                C                        G  
Oh, we've said "I do" and 

we've signed "I don't" and we've sworn 

we'd never do that again 
       C                 
Oh, we burned our bras, 
       Dm                      
and we burned our dinners and 
   F
we burned our candles at both ends 
          C                 
And we've had some children 
    F         C        G 
who look just like the way we did back then 
 
 
Bridge: 
              Am-G         F    Am-G           
Oh, but we're all grown up now, All grown up, 
F                               GT 
None of us could tell you quite how 
 
 
Chorus
