Is she goin' out tonight, is she wearin' your shirt,

is she driving your car.

She always wanted to be accepted.

She was only rejected anyhow.  And...

[chorus:]

     G/DG/D Piano Chord 
       CC Piano Chord 
       AA Piano Chord 

Renee remains the same.

     CC Piano Chord 
      AA Piano Chord 

Renee she'll never change.
CC Piano Chord 
       AA Piano Chord 

She's the same.

Is she leavin' the house tonight, is she carrying your keys
as she waves goodbye?
He was the one who was most likely to, but he never got her through
and they barely made it by.
But if we look at her family picture, I'm sure we'll see a face
that looks a lot like now.
I always wanted to get her attention,
I only got rejection anyhow.

[chorus]

Is she takin' your house tonight, is she lookin' through your eyes
as she says goodbye.
You were the one that was gonna make her happy,
you only made her cry.
But if you look at her yearbook picture, I'm sure we'll see a face
that looks a lot like now.
I only wanted to get her affection,
I only get rejection anyhow.
