          A
A pretty face like yours
       C#m               B
Should really learn to smile more
       A                    C#m
And no one night stands for you
                       B
Or they’ll think that you’re a whore
             A
You better cross your legs
      C#m              B
Cause that’s not very lady like
             A
Don’t wanna hear your thoughts
      C#m             B
Don’t even start to speak your mind

Chorus:
          E
You don’t own me
You don’t own me
You don’t own me
                       C#m
And I’ll do whatever I want to
Cause I’m a psycho
But that’s fine though
                         F#m
So you better get out of my way
I’ll be your biggest mistake
A
If you keep acting that way
E
I don’t need you
I don’t need you
                        C#m
Cause I’ll be whoever I want to
And what makes you think
You get your say?
                         F#m
So you better get out of my way
I’ll be your biggest mistake
A
If you keep acting that way

Don't cut your hair too short,
'cause it looks better long and straight
Don't make the first move, no,
'cause dignity will always wait
Just learn to bite your tongue,
were you not taught when you were young?
Don't show too much skin,
don't even start to speak your mind

Chorus

F#m                     A
I’d rather pull out my teeth
      E           B          A
Than be what you want me to be
F#m                    A
I know it’s hard to believe
E         B    A
You don’t own me

Chorus:
You don't own me, you don't own me,
you don't own me
And I'll do whatever I want to
'Cause I'm a psycho, but that's fine though
So you better get out of my way
I'll be your biggest mistake,
if you keep acting that way

I'd rather pull out my teeth
(I don't need you, I don't need you,
'cause I'll be whoever I want to)
Than be what you want me to be
(And what makes you think, you get your say?
So you better get out of my way)
I know it's hard to believe
(I'll be your biggest mistake,
if you keep acting that way)
You don't own me
