Velvet Underground

Velvet Underground - Lisa Says guitar tab

I've dragged so much stuff off Nevada, I figured it's time to post something.

This is the version from "VU Live 1969" and includes the "Why am I So Shy?"

interlude.

Lisa Says

By Lou Reed

F C Bb

Lisa says on a night like this,

C F

be so nice if you'd give me a kiss.

F C Bb

And Lisa says for just one little smile,

C F

I'll sit next to you for a little while.

CHORUS:

F C Bb F C Bb F

Lisa says, Lisa says, Lisa says, Lisa says

F C Bb

Lisa says you must be some kind of fool,

C F

The way you treat everybody so cruel.

C Bb

And Lisa says you must be a funny kind of guy,

C F

The way you're always staring at the sky.

CHORUS:

F C Bb F C Bb F

Lisa says, Lisa says, Lisa says, Lisa says

BRIDGE:

If you're lookin for a good-time Charlie,

C F

Well that's not really what I am.

Am Bb Gm C

You know a good-time Charlie's wastin time.

You know that good times just seem to pass me by.
