| pre>intro d bm g (three times) then g a | |
| B e | |
| Sit by my window and look outside | |
| A g#m e | |
| Wonder why a sun don't shine on me | |
| B e | |
| What's wrong with you, you stupid child | |
| A g#m c# | |
| Don't you think that i'm the one you're waiting to see | |
| F# b | |
| Don't talk too much cause she falls for the soft touch | |
| D e | |
| Makes her feel everything is secure | |
| G a d | |
| Don't ever leave a footprint on the floor | |
| Chorus | |
| D bm g | |
| Don't bother with the local girls | |
| D bm g | |
| Don't bother with the local girls | |
| D bm g g a | |
| Don't bother with the local girls | |
| B e | |
| She's probably halfwit she must be straight | |
| A g#m e | |
| Bound to have a mother who knows nothing but hate | |
| B e | |
| Don't want to laugh i'd rather knock her down | |
| A g#m c# | |
| Standing at the bus stop where she waits each morning | |
| F# b | |
| So isolated that she thinks that the army | |
| D e | |
| Is the place where a man oughta be | |
| G a d | |
| Don't bother with them they don't bother me | |
| Repeat chorus (plus) | |
| D g | |
| Don't bother with the.... local girls | |
| Bridge | |
| A g a g | |
| They got the walk they got the talk right down without a flaw | |
| A g g a d | |
| At six oclock i got to stop my dreaming at the counter of the store | |
| D bm g d bm g | |
| Don't bother with them | |
| D bm g g a | |
| B e | |
| Without a doubt i gotta intercept | |
| A g#m e | |
| Must be time someone went shouted in their ear | |
| B e | |
| You look all right in that cheap green dress | |
| A g#m c# | |
| But every time you swish it round you make me disappear | |
| F# b | |
| Yes i'm aware of exactly what i'm doing | |
| D e | |
| Making everything a mystery, | |
| G a d | |
| Don't bother with it, it don't bother me | |
| Chorus | |
| (3 times) and fade | |
| Here's the story of this transcription: | |
| Someone (off list) emailed me for the lyrics so i wrote them out and | |
| At the same time i wrote down a couple of the chords. then john | |
| (jhayman@k12s.phast.umass.edu) saw it and made the necessary | |
| Additions and corrections. | |
| For a while we were playing emaj7 instead of e in the first line, | |
| (b) sit by my window and (emaj7) look outside, but the current | |
| Thought is that the e is correct. | |
| John wrote: "in hind sight and sound, emaj7 is wrong and e is right. | |
| Although he's singing a db, the rhythm guitar is clearly playing a | |
| Dave edmund's "monkey beat" e." (i play that e at fret 4 (476454)) | |
