VERSE 1:
      G/F# G                     G/F# G
Well, if   you've been a married wo - man
G/F# G                          G/F#  G
And  things didn't seem to work o  -  ut
G/F# G                     G/F# G
Di - vorce is the key to being  loose and free
           D                     G/F# G
But you're gonna be talked about
                G/F# G
Everybody knows that you loved once
G/F# G                  C
They think you'll love again

You can't have a male friend
     G
When you're a has-been
     D                   G  G/F#
Or a woman, you're rated X

CHORUS:
G

Yeah,
              D
And if you're rated X

You're some kind of gold
     C                         G
Even men turnin' silver try to make
      D
But I think it's wrong

To judge every picture
     C                       D
If a cheap camera makes a mistake
      G/F# G                     G/F# G
So if your best friend's husband      says to you
G/F# G                   C
That you started lookin' good

You should've known he would
       G
And he would if he could
       D                    G
And he will if you're rated X

VERSE 2:
Well, nobody knows where you're going
But they sure know where you been
All they're thinking of is your experience in love
Well, their minds fill up with sin
The women all look at you like you're bad
The men all hope you are
But if you go too far
You're gonna wear the scar
Of a women rated X

CHORUS

G/F# G 


G/F#  G                            G/F# G
Yeah, us women don't have a chance
                              G/F# G
'Cause if you've been married

You can't have any fun at all
               G/F# G
You're rated X
          G/F# G
No matter what   they do they're gonna talk about you
                G/F# G              G/F# G
Don't know what to   think about it
                  G/F# G
Just let 'em talk

Just let 'em talk, Meg

G
