Mannish Girl Lloyd Cole
Here's Lloyd Cole's "Mannish Girl" - a non-album track on the
"Morning is Broken" CD5. Great song - should have been on
the album.
Intro D A Em7 G
I [D]used to be con[A]tent to frown
But [Em7]anything for [G]money now
I'd [D]rather be a [A]mannish kind of [Em7]girl[G]
I [D]used to get drunk on [A]Spanish wine
Well, [Em7]now I'm drunk most [G]all the time
I [D]guess I've been to [A]grateful for too [Em7]long[G]
*chorus*
So I sit around and [F#m]wait
And watch the grass grow [G]green
And count the cars
A G G/f# Em7
Feeling lost alone and misunderstood
So I [D]wai[A]t, h[Em7]ey he[G]y
Yes I [D]wai[A]t, h[Em7]ey he[G]y
*verse 2 - same*
Well I had a girl in London town
She picked me up and spun me round
I guess she was a mannish kind of girl
I went away and I still don't know why
Six feet under is where my bloody heart lies
I'm just afraid I can't forget her now
*chorus -same*
So I sit around and wait
And watch the grass grow green
And count the cars
Feeling lost alone and misunderstood
So I wait, hey hey
So I wait, hey hey, hey hey
*verse 3 - same*
I used to be too big too crawl
Now I don't give a damn at all
I'd rather be a mannish kind of girl
Yeah I used to get drunk on that Spanish wine
But now I'm drunk most all the time
I guess I'm just afraid I can't forget her now
*chorus - same - keep repeating D A Em7 G over extra lines*
And so I sit around and wait
And watch the grass grow green
And count the cars
Feeling lost alone and misunderstood
So I wait, hey hey
Yeah I wait, hey hey
Yes I wait, hey hey
Yeah I wait, hey hey, hey hey
