Southside Girl

| G | G | G | G |

[Verse 1]
D              G
She was fifteen, quiet and lean
D           G
Digging the music, making the scene
                          D
People would stare at her long golden hair
G             D
 My baby's in black was the colour she'd wear

[Chorus]
             Em          Am
When I first saw her, my heart did flips
Em               A
  Feel our first kiss still burning my lips
            G                D             G
Holding her near, year after year, my Southside girl

[Verse 2]
G
She was so fine that after a time
G
I found myself hoping she would be mine
G
She spotted my plan, did not understand
                  D
She thought I was crazy holding her hand

[Chorus]
Continues after the ad
             Em
When I first saw her, my heart did flips
                    A
Feel our first kiss still burning my lips
            G                D                  G
Holding her near, year after year, my Southside girl

[Verse 3]
  C               G           C
I called upon her mother, she told me "There's another"
                                D
"Why don't you just quit and go home?"
  C
I thought for just a minute, I knew that I was in it
                            D
I said "I'll never go home alone"

[Chorus]

Feel our first kiss still burning my lips
