Tough girl in the fast lane. No (Fsus)time for love, no (Gm)time for hate. No dra ma, no time for games. Tough girl, whose (Gm)soul I come home on my own, check my phone; noth ing, though. Act bus y, or der in, pay T. V., it’s ag o ny. Oh, I may (C)cry, ru in (Am)ing my make up; wash a (C)way all the (Am)things you’ve tak en.
