NOTES:
This is really a piano song, as were many on this album, but this is such a
catchy, upbeat, song that I just had to transcribe it for guitar. This is a
cool song from one of the great songwriters out there. Enjoy!

VERSE:
Gm C F Bb
In Sears and Roebuck, in Nineteen Fifty-Seven,
Gm C F Bb
In my last life, all good girls would go to Heaven
Gm C F Bb
But I've a strangeness, a queer propensity
Gm C F
For twisting the knife too easily
PRE-CHORUS:
Dm Bb C F
When I think I'm getting better, I'm just getting worse
Dm Bb F C C7
When I think I've got it made, I get impossibly cursed
CHORUS:
G F C C7
When did I become such a bitch?
G F C C7
And how did I let this happen? I don't know
G F
When did I become such a bitch?
Bb F
I used to be so nice
[play: Guitar Figure 1]
VERSE:
It's like a sickness, I'm powerless to stop it
My boring life, my little heart made misanthropic
Don't give me reasons, just give me therapy
But, really, just give me what I want
PRE-CHORUS:
When I think I'm getting better, I'm evil again
When I think I've got it fixed, I have familiar refrains
CHORUS:
When did I become such a bitch?
And how did I let this happen? I don't know
When did I become such a bitch?
I used to be so nice
Bb C
Well, I used to be alright
BRIDGE:
Dm C F Dm
But I-I-I-I-I hate everyone and everything all the time
C E N.C.
And being so cruel - 'cause all the pleasure that I get
E N.C.
My wicked tongue helps me forget myself and all my foolish ways
Dm C F Dm
'Cause being good is just so fucking boring
[play: Guitar Figure 1]
PRE-CHORUS:
When I think I'm getting better, I'm just getting worse
When I think I've got it made, I get impossibly cursed
When I think that I'm better, I'm worse, yes, I am
When I think that I'm better, I find that I'm cursed
CHORUS:
When did I become such a bitch?
And how did I let this happen? I don't know
When did I become such a bitch?
I used to be so nice, once upon a time
Oh, when did I become such a bitch?
And how did I let this happen? I don't know
When did I become such a bitch?
I used to be so nice
Well, I used to be alright
