Play the D note whichever way is the easiest.

(I use the first one.)

Each Note Is Played Several Times

(It's Best To Practice Along With The Album).

First Verse:

G E

One thing I know is true - I need a little girl like you

G

So I can stop hanging around

E C

So I can stop making that downtown trip, you know

C

It's starting to get old

D

If you know what I mean

G

You can scream and shout and it'll be fine

E

Keep me in bed all day and blow my mind

G

You can hold me tight and rattle my brain

E

You can kiss me and drive me insane

E C

Give me funny little shivers up and down my spine

D

When we kiss each and every time

C

What I'm thinking and doing never seem to work out

G

They're always two different things you know

C D

Open up your eyes and see that you're the only girl for me

Chorus: (2x)

G

(Oh) Debra Jean baby you're my queen

E

And queens don't seem to speak

C

To guys like me (Ooh me)

D

I was meant for meant for you and you were meant for me

Solo: (See the bottom of this tab sheet.)

Second Verse:

G E

One thing I know is true - I need a little girl like you

G

Someone to stay with me and stick by my side

E

And someone I can call my little butterfly

E C

Give me funny little shivers up and down my spine

D

When we kiss each and every time

C

What I'm thinking and doing never seem to work out

G

They're always to different things you know

C D

Open up your eyes and see that you're the only girl for me

Chorus: (Again) (ad nauseum)

(The chorus repeats as the song fades out.)

There. That was my second tab. If it doesn't sound right,

then your bass probably isn't tuned.

HAVE A NICE DAY!!!
