Verse 1:
Em C G B
Julie was a girl like no other
Em C G B
She used to have a style that would make them boys stutter
Em C G B
And every time she rocked that stage with a mic in her hand
Em C G B
She made me a bit more desperate to be in a band
Em C G B
Now she was in love with the world and in love in the game
Em C G B
No need for desert but a hunger for fame
Em C G B
Yeah, spitting flows like a waterfall, banging on that wall
Em C G B
A bad bitch gonna break it all, 20 year old wrecking ball
Pre-Chorus:
C D
But then that ball crashed into this guy
C D
And then she kissed all the dreams goodbye
Chorus:
Em C G
Julie, Julie, Julie
B Em C G B
I've been thinking about all the things you could've been
Em C G
Julie, Julie, Julie
B Em C G B
So what happens to my favorite high school queen?

Verse 2:
Em C G B
Yeah, Julie, she turned into a mama
Em C G B
Leaving all them boys behind, man, they never caught her
Em C G B
'Cause Julie, she was hot no matter whether summer or fall
Em C G B
She was praised on the block, she was all rock and roll
Em C G B
And she became that lady with a belly and a baby
Em C G B
And the man in the Mercedes and she never rocked the stage again
Em C G B
I have to say I wasn't ready for the sudden changes
Em C G B
Love the way she played her cards like all of them were fucking Haitians
Pre-Chorus:
C D
But then she looked, looked into his eyes
C D
And then she kissed all his dreams goodbye
Chorus:
Em C G
Julie, Julie, Julie
B Em C G B
I've been thinking about all the things you could've been
Em C G
Julie, Julie, Julie
B Em C G B
So what happens to my favorite high school queen?
Bridge:
Em G
Turned out to be, turned out to be
Oh, man, I never could've known
Em G
Turned out to be, turned out to be
B C
She was as happy as never before
G C
But Julie, tryna let you go
G
You're like no other
B
Took me so long just to see it
Em C G B Em C G
Now I don't see you no more, no, I don't see you no more
B
When I keep thinking about
Chorus:
Em C G
Julie, Julie, Julie
B Em C G B
I've been thinking about all the things you could've been
Em C G
Julie, Julie, Julie
B Em C G B
So what happens to my favorite high school queen?

Julie, Julie, Julie
B Em C G B
So what happens to my favorite high school queen?
Oh, Julie
