[Verse]
               D 
Hey homecoming queen 
           A 
Why do you lie 
               F#m 
When somebody's mean? 
             E 
Where do you hide? 
          D 
Do people assume 
              A 
You're always alright? 
                F#m 
Been'so good at smiling 
              E 
Most of your life
[Pre-Chorus]
     D                A 
Look damn good in the dress 
                    F#m 
Zipping up the mess 
                  E 
Dancing with your best foot forward 
D 
Does it get hard 
A 
To have to play the part? 
F#m              E 
Nobody's feeling sorry for ya
[Chorus]
D              A                          F#m 
But what if I told you the world wouldn't end 
               E                         D 
If you started showing what's under your skin 
            A                      F#m 
What if you let 'em all in on the lie? 
             E                   D  A  F#m  E 
Even the homecoming queen cries
[Verse]
                D 
Hey homecoming queen 
                A 
How's things at home? 
                 F#m 
Still walking on eggshells 
                   E 
When that curtains closed 
               D 
Did your daddy teach you 
           A 
How to act tough? 
                  F#m 
Or more like your momma? 
                   E 
Sweep it under the rug
[Pre-Chorus]
     D                A 
Look damn good in the dress 
                    F#m 
Zipping up the mess 
                  E 
Dancing with your best foot forward 
D 
Did you want the crown 
A 
Or does it weigh you down 
F#m              E 
Nobody's feeling sorry for ya
[Chorus]
D              A                          F#m 
What if I told you the world wouldn't end 
               E                         D 
If you started showing what's under your skin? 
            A                      F#m 
What if you let 'em all in on the lie? 
             E                   D 
Even the homecoming queen cries 
                A                         F#m 
Yeah, what if I told you the sky wouldn't fall? 
                 E                                  D 
If you lost your composure, said to hell with it all 
               A                     F#m 
Not everything pretty sparkles and shines 
                E                   D 
And even the homecoming queen cries 
   A     F#m 
Oh yeah 
          E                       D  A  F#m  E 
Even the homecoming queen cries
[Outro]
               D 
Hey homecoming queen 
           A 
Why do you lie 
               F#m 
When somebody's mean? 
             E 
Where do you hide?
