Sunny Girlfriend |
Intro: G-F-C-D-repeat (on the G and C chords, you'll need to move some fingers around to get those little subtleties...I'm afraid I can't explain it any better than that over a computer) Verses: G-F-C-G-D-G-D-repeat Chorus: (I've heard this played a couple of different ways... I think the HQ version is C-D7-G; but on the UK tour of March '97, it was played F-D7-G...so whichever one you like better I guess). Break: Fmaj7-C-G-Fmaj7-C-G- Em-Am-Em-Am-C-D7-to last verse She owns and operates Her own sunshine factory Of painting smiles on dolls And then on me She's my sunny girlfriend And personality. Well, she's got a book That tells about ev'rybody's past And she can make you slow While making your mind move fast She's my sunny girlfriend And she is never less. Oh, while I am sleeping Then she comes creeping Into my thoughts at night Gazing down through eyes As bright as wonder. She can send you on your way To ev'rywhere She's only started After you think that she is there. Well, she's my sunny girlfriend, And she just doesn't care. Yes, she's my sunny girlfriend, She doesn't really care. Words and Music (C) Michael Nesmith |
