[Verse 1] (Key change)
F         A                           G
There are some things you can't cover up...
        D            A       A/C A   A/C   A
...with lipstick and powder,
          A                    G
Thought I heard you mention my name,
          D        E
Can't you talk any louder?
               F#m                    E/G#
Don't come any closer, don't come any nearer,
             A   A7/G           D/F#
My vision of you can't come any clearer,
    A   D      G          A              D    E
Oh, I  ...just wanna hear girls talk  | /  /  /  /  |
 
[Verse 2]
        A             G           D
I got a loaded imagi- nation been fired by girls talk
       A                     G
It's a more, or less, situ - ation,
     D         E
In - spired by girls talk,
            F#m                     E/G#
But I can't say the words you wanna hear,
          A            A7/G    D/F#
I suppose you're gonna have to play it by ear,
G     D        A    A7
Right here and now------!
 
[Chorus]
D    G     D
     Girls talk,
         A               D    G     D
And they wanna know how-----  girls talk,
         A                    D    G     D
And they say it's not allowed----  girls talk,
        D
If they say that it's so,
                                E     E7
Don't they think that I know by now------...
 
[Verse 3]
            A                    G
...That the word upon everyone's lipstick...
        D             A       A/C A   A/C   A
...That you're dedi - cated,
        A                       G
You may not be an old fashioned girl,
           D         E
But you're gonna get dated,
              F#m                          E/G#
Was it really murder?  Were you just pre - tending?
              A         A7/G           D/F#  G   D
Lately I have heard you are the living...    end---!
 
[Chorus]
G     D              A              D     G     D
Girls talk, and they wanna know how----   girls talk,
         A                   D     G     D
And they say it's not aloud-----   girls talk,
         A                   D     G     D
And they think they know how-----  girls talk,
         D
If they say that it's so,
                                E     E7
Don't they think that I know by now------?
