A tune from "The Little Darlin'" years.
Key of F#
The opening riff is played:
F# C# D# C#
Capo 4th fret
The A7 is played with an added G on the high e string
E A D G B e
x 0 2 0 2 3
D
Now she's gone so carry on
A7
Tell me the latest evil about her
D
'cause like the old saying goes that just makes the tongue go louder
G
And in the presence of her absense the worst in her comes out
D G
It always seems the girl in my dreams
A7 D
is the girl they talk about
D
Well I guess it's fate
A7
Everyday there's some bad girl around town
It seems to be my luck every girl I pick up
D
Is the one everybody puts down
But until they proved I made a foolish move
G
Beyond the shadow of a doubt
D G
I can be found hanging around
A7 D
The girl they talk about
G
I don't listen to the things they say
D
and let them make a fool out of me
G
They're spreading rumors and little
D A7
white lies 'cause they're jealous of me
D
I've heard them say they'll come a day
A7
When she's going to paint me blue
She'll brush her past all over my future
D
with evil deeds she'll do
but whatever she's done she's not alone
G
there's not a halo on those who shout
D G
and in the best crowd I walk proud
A7 D
Beside the girl they talk about
