This is my acoustic version of Teenage Dirtbag By Wheatus.
 
Capo 4
 
I think this song is better played in power chords.
 
 
[Verse]
 
C             G     C       F
Her name is Noelle, I had a dream about her
C             G
She rings my bell
C                 F
Got gym class in half an hour
C           G          C        F
Oh, how she rocks, in Keds and tube socks
Am               F         G
But she doesn't know who I am
Am              F       G
And she doesn't give a damn about me
 
 
[Chorus]
 
C            F        G
I'm just a teenage dirtbag baby
C                  F        G
Yeah, I'm just a teenage dirtbag baby
C         F     G                C   F   G
Listen to Iron Maiden baby, with me, ooh ooh 
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
C                  G     C                    F
Her boyfriend's a dick, he brings a gun into school
C                G    C            F
And he'd simply kick my ass if he knew the truth
C              G
He lives on my block
C              F
And drives an IROC
Am              F      G
But he doesn't know who I am
Am             F       G
And he doesn't give a damn about me
 
 
[Chorus]
 
C          F       G
I'm just a teenage dirtbag baby
C                F       G
Yeah, I'm just a teenage dirtbag baby
C         F      G
Listen to Iron Maiden baby, with me
C    F  G
Ooooh
C   F    G
Oh yeah, dirtbag
C               F               G
No, she doesn't know what she's missing
C   F    G
Oh yeah, dirtbag
C               F               G
No, she doesn't know what she's missing
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
C                G
Man, I feel like mould
C                   F
It's prom night and I am lonely
C      G
Lo and behold
C             F
She's walking over to me
C            G
This must be fake
C                F
My lip starts to shake
Am           F         G
How does she know who I am
Am               F      G
And why does she give a damn about me
 
 
[Chorus]
 
C              F        G                 C             F
I've got two tickets to Iron Maiden baby, come with me Friday
G
Don't say maybe
C          F       G            C    F   G

Sounds good, felt right for me to make the chorus C F G Am rather than just C F G though

I think it's "I've got two tickets to Iron Maiden baby. Come with me Friday don't say maybe". You need the baby to rhyme with the maybe. Can't wait to try these chords out!
