Em D?.

     I just want some affection

     I just want some affection

     I don't want no hoochie-coochie mama

     No back door woman

     No queen street sex thing

     I want a tiger on bended knees

     With all the kindness of the japanese

     I just want some affection

     Wish I heard voices

                                         G A

     Wish I was a telephone

Em D

     Karen yeah yeah

     Karen yeah yeah

     Karen yeah yeah

     Karen yeah yeah yeah

       G A                        Em D + Arpeggio

     I said yeah, oh Karen

Em D

     I know this girl,

     This very special girl

     And she works in a library yeah

     Standing there, behind the counter

     Willing to help

     With all the problems

     That I encounter

     Helps me find Hemingway

     Helps me find Genet

     Helps me find Brecht

     Helps me find Chandler

     Helps me find James Joyce

     She always makes the right choice

     She's no queen

     She's no angel

     Just a peasant from the village

     She's my god, she's my god

     She's my G.O.D., she's my god, yeah, yeah,

     She's my G.O.O.D, yeah

     She's my god now

     Oh she's my god now, yeah

     Karen yeah yeah

     Karen yeah yeah

     Karen yeah yeah

     Karen yeah yeah yeah

     Oh yeah, oh Karen

For this part still Em D but in arpeggio

     And she stands there, in the library

     Like a nun in a church does...

     Like a nun in a church does...

     She stands there all alone...

Em D

     'cos she gives me something that

     I just can't get now anywhere else

     'cos the girls that I see walking around

     Yeah the ones I see walking on the street

     Are so damn damn damn damn damn damn cold

     'cos they must have Eskimo blood in their veins

     And the one that I want

     I just can't see

     I can't see her there

     I can't see anywhere

     All right...

     Karen yeah yeah

     Karen yeah yeah

     Karen yeah yeah

     Karen

     Karen Karen Karen

     Karen Karen Karen
