Raitt Bonnie - Nobodys Girl 2 guitar tab

[Note to Cowpie: I'm not sure if I entered the right address, but the CC

is

for the newsletter. Katie wrote in with a request, so I'm copying you

what I

sent her in case it's useful for the general publication. Sorry if

the tab's

are off & it's hard to read - hey everybody, listen to how Bonnie

does it and

you'll figure it out!]

Katie:

Good luck with this. If you're interested, Bonnie Raitt recorded it on

her

"Nick of Time" album, which also has lots of other excellent stuff

(of

course). She plays this with just a steel-guitar and very minimal

backup

rhythm - no percussion, no nothing else, and the effect is

jaw-dropping

beautiful.

NOBODYâS GIRL

C G

She donât need anybody to tell her sheâs pretty

Am F

sheâs heard it every single day of her life,

G C F

heâs got to wonder what she sees in him when theyâre so many

G

others standing in line

Am Bb F

she gives herself to him, but heâs still on the outside

C G C G C

sheâs alone in this world, sheâs nobodyâs girl, sheâs nobodyâs girl

She shows up at his doorstep in the middle of night

then she disappears for weeks at a time

just enough to keep him wanting more, but never is he satisfied

and heâs left to pick up the pieces wondering what does he do this for

sheâs off in her own little world, sheâs nobodyâs girl, sheâs nobodyâs girl

Bb F/G

(bridge) He says before I met her i didnât love nothing

G F C

i could take it that was ok

Bb G C

she brings out a want in me, for

Dm F G

things I didnât even know that I need

She does anything she wants, anytime she wants to

with anyone, oh she wants it all

still she gets all upset over the least thing

man you hurt, it makes you feel so small

and sheâs a walking contradiction but i ache for her inside

sheâs fragile like a string of pearls, sheâs nobodyâs girl

sheâs fragile like a string of pearls, sheâs nobodyâs girl, ...
