Subject: Tom Petty: Girl On LSD

Tom Petty

Girl on L.S.D.

B-side to the single "You Don't Know How it Feels"

chords figured out by Mark Matthews (rmmatt01@homer.louisvill.edu)

(I think they're right, anyway)

On the album it's played on a clean electric, but this is a great song to

play with an acoustic and a six-pack (or whatever drug you and your girl's

on) with a bunch of friends on the back porch. But what Petty song isn't,

right?

Note: When you're strumming the D chord do the following slide every now

and then before each verse: xxx23x ----- xxx77X ----- xxx23x (it's hard to

explain in writing, but if you hear the song you'll know what bit I'm

talking about)

D G A D

I's in love with a girl on marijuana

D G D A

(she) said if I'm not stoned I don't wanna

G D

but she got so paranoid

A G

her place I would avoid

G A D

I's in love with a girl on marijuana

[same for all verses]

I's in love with a girl on cocaine

she had everything going but her brain

we'd talk endlessly for hours

but by morning it'd go sour

I's in love with a girl on cocaine

(chorus:)

G D

Through extacy, crystal meth. and glue

A D

I found no drug compares to you

G

all these pills

D

and all this weed

A

I don't know just what I need

I's in love with a girl on l.s.d.

she'd see things I'd never see

she broadened her perspective

then I got more selective

I's in love with a girl on l.s.d.

(repeat chorus)

I's in love with a girl who drank beer

till bad breath and all she disappeared

she was blowing up real bad

but when she left I was still sad

I's in love with a girl who drank beer

I's in love with a girl on china white

we were married for a year one night

her memory still lingers

cause I burned all my fingers

I's in love with a girl on china white

I's in love with a girl who drank coffee

there was times when I couldn't keep her off me

that caffine got her going

but her ugly side was showing

I's in love with a girl who drank coffee

I's in love with a girl who was a dealer

I's afraid somebody'd come and steal her

we never used to fight

but the phone rang day and night

I's in love with a girl who was a dealer

sure as hell

she got popped by the big guys
