[Lyrics], my version of them, probably not perfect.
(Verse):
Rude Girl don't make me cry. Why do you do the things you do when you
pass me by? Is there a reason why you find it funny to bring tears to my
eyes. I meet you at the club. I try to tell you that I think I'm in love.
You walked away from me. The rest of the night well I do not see you at all.
(Break)
(Verse):
While the Exceptions played, I stayed and you wondered why I was afraid.
Because I'm next to you, I'll tell you the truth, and nothing but. I
fucked it up once again. You walked away with another man. What's a Rude
Boy to do when hecan't get, when he can't get, when he can't get next to you?
(Break):
I can't get next to you, whoa no.
(Verse):
Rude Girl don't make me sad. I think you do the things you do just to
make me mad. I think that I have been had. At least I know now that love
is bad. Say you're the queen of ska. I don't think you really know who
you are. You are the one that I want. When push comes to shove, that's
what I say.
(End):
That's what I say. . . .
RUDE - GIRL!
That's it! I hope the chords sound right to you, and that you will buy
the CD if you don't already have it. E-mail me with any questions,
comments, etc.

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official TELEGRAPH tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
