Me And The Mad Girl
[Verse 1]
Bm F#I learned in school
F#mThat I was mad if they were sane, you see
G DThey had to beat me black and blue
Am F#They said it hurt them more than me
BmBut I learned who were my
F#enemies
F#mAnd I learned who were my
Gfriends
DI learned to read between the lines
GmWhen I was 10
[Instrumental]
G D A
G DI'd Do anything to get out of
Gschool
D GAway from the teacher's stick
DTo shoot streetlamps with my slingshot
Em GSmoke cigarettes and get sick
D GSteal apples in September
D GFight shadows in green June
DOr just sit and smell the burning leaves
Em GOf an autumn's afternoon
DAn autumn's afternoon
[Verse 2]
Bm F#Once I met a mad girl
F#mAs she came hopping through the
Am furze
GHer clothes all stuck with
Dfluff and stuff
Am F#Bearded barley and bristly burrs
BmAnd I was high among the
F#branches green
F#m GAnd she hadn't seen me there
DAs she went shuffling with her shadow
GmAnd snatching at the air
[Instrumental]
G D A
G D GWild weeds, wilting
D GWere twined all in her curls
D AAnd I could tell by her mad blue eyes
Em GShe was a mad girl
D GShe was thin as any sparrow
D GHer song it had no tune
DJust scuffling through the
Gpiney glades
Em GOf a summer's afternoon
DOf a summer's afternoon
[Verse 3]
Bm F#I came dropping through the branches down
F#mShe started round in surprise
Amand fear
GI don't know what I had to say
Dto her
Am F#But something I knew she had to
hear
Bm F#She picked up a piece of flint
F#m AmDrew back her arm and she flung it high
G DNot a bad throw that cut my cheek
GmJust below the eye
[Instrumental]
G D A
[Outro]
D GMad girl, mad girl
D GBefore you ran away
DI knew you were as mad as me
Em GAnd as sane as a summer's day
D GMad girl
D GWe both were wrong again
D GYou took me for an enemy
Em GAnd I took you for a friend
DI took you for a friend
D
