Jessies Girl

Jessie's Girl
transcribed by Richard Helms

Intro:
D    A     Bm     G     A    D

Play twice  (this progression is 
also
repeated throughout most of the 
song)



D      A    Bm     G     A    D
Jessie is a friend
Yeah I know, he's been a good friend
 of mine
But lately somethin's changed, it 
ain't hard to define
Jessie's got himself a girl, and I 
wanna make her mine

Chorus:
          D            Bm         
And she's watchin' him with those 
  G    A    D
eyes
And she's lovin' him with that body,
 I just know it
And he's holdin' her in his arms, 
late late at night

A                         D
Y'know, I wish that I had Jessie's 
girl
A5  B5  A5  B5          A5    
            I wish that I had 
D
Jessie's girl

A   B   A   Bm  G           D 
                Where can I 
     G          A
find a woman like that?



I'll play along with the charade
There doesn't seem to be a reason to
 change
Y'know I feel so dirty when they 
start talkin' cute
I wanna tell her that I love her but
 the point is prob'ly moot

[Chorus twice]

Bridge:
G   D   A
G   D   A   G

        D              A          
And I'm lookin' in the mirror all 
          G
the time
Wond'rin' what she don't see in me
Yeah I've been funny I've been cool 
with the lines
Ain't that the way love's supposed 
to be?

F#  B  F#  G#m F# G#m F#     (repeat

        D            Bm     G    
Tell me, where can I find a woman

 like that?
