Em
Hanging out at work
C
I always heard you name
G
They said you were the girl 
D
from the hunger games
Em
I said I never read it 
C
They all said "shut up"
G
So I walked to Barnes and Noble
D
and I picked it right up

Em
Later that night
C
oh I cracked the spine 
G
of what would soon become
D
a deep love of mine 
Em
From hunting to the hob
C
and whats inside your head
G
Then the sappy love story 
D
of the boy with the bread

Em                        C
Takin care of her mom and baby sis
   G                        D
She goes by the name of Katniss
Em
Shes only sixteen 
C
but had to grow up fast
G
After she lost her dad 
D
in a mining blast
           
           G
That's katniss everdeen 
      D      Em      C
(oh ooh oh ooh wah uh oh)
          G

      D      Em      C
(oh ooh oh ooh wah uh oh)
            G
She's Katniss Everdeen
     D      Em      C 
(oh ooh oh ooh wah uh oh)
             G

      D       Em     C
(oh ooh oh ooh wah uh oh)
 
(Repeat the Em , C , G , D until chorus. Biss is G , D , Em , C ) 

Her sisters name got drawn
and she took her place
Making her a sign of hope
for the human race
Haymitch is a drunk
but he's kind of fun
A cynic from the hunger games that he won




Then a long came Cinna
Lighting you up in flames
at the opening ceremony 
for the games
Your skill with a bow 
really set you apart
The girl on fire
set a fire in my heart

Stayin alive for her baby sis
Her best friend calls her Catnip
Shes only sixteen
and shes so confused
After Peeta said he loved her
were Gale's feelings bruised?

Ha, that's Catnip Everdeen 
(oh ooh oh ooh wah uh oh)
She's katniss everdeen
(oh ooh oh ooh wah uh oh)


And I've been spending my nights
with Katniss Everdeen
A girl from the Seam
whos come to mean everything


I don't like Peeta
But maybe I'm jealous 
Will you pick him or Gale
why dont you just tell us
I cant stop reading 
I'll admit I cried
When you raised three fingers when Rue died

"Lay down your head, and close your sleepy eyes
And when again they open, the sun will rise." 

Miss Everdeen
(oh ooh oh ooh wah uh oh)
That's Katniss Everdeen
(oh ooh oh ooh wah uh oh)
I love Katniss Everdeen
(oh ooh oh ooh wah uh oh)
Katniss Everdeen 
(oh ooh oh ooh wah uh oh)

Katniss Everdeen

"may the odds be ever in your favor"
