Girls Talk - Elvis Costello

A G D

A G D

A G D A G D

There are some things you can't cover up with lipstick and powder

A G

I thought I heard you mention my name

D E

Can't you talk any louder?

F#m

Don't come any closer

E/G#

Don't come any nearer

A D

My vision of you can't get any clearer

A G D A G D

Oh I just want to hear girls talk

A G D E

I got a loaded imagination being fired by girls' talk

F#m E/G#

But I can't say the words you want to hear

A D

I suppose you're going to have to play it by ear

A G

Right here and now

D

Girls talk

A G

And they want to know how

D

Girls talk

A G

And they say it's not allowed

D

Girls talk

If they say that it's so

E

Don't you think that I know by now?

That the word upon everyone's lips

Stick that you're dedicated

Though you may not be an old-fashioned girl

You're still going to get dated

Was it really murder?

Were you just pretending?

Lately I have heard you are the living end

Girls talk and they wanna know about her

Girls talk they wanna know if I care

Girls talk and they wanna know where yeah

Girls talk

Girls talk
