Randy Newman - Only a Girl

      
 
 Probably the easiest song to play off the Harps and Angels album, but no less great.
 
 A                
 She's only a girl
 
 And her voice is peculiar
          E              E7 
 And her eyes are strange
        E                 
 She's prone to be willful
      E7                     
 You try to cheer her up some
             A                 
 But she's impervious to change
 
 A                                   
 She dresses in black all of the time
          E              E7 
 Wears an orthopedic shoe
       E                  E7               A         
 It's some sort of uglification thing that she's into
         A              
 She's a hundred and ten
       A7            
 Maybe five foot five
     D             
 She don't eat meat
            Dm           
 But she'll eat you alive
        A         
 She's only a girl
            E      
 But she's big time

 A                
 She's only a girl
 
 And I'll tell you about her
           E             E7 
 At least all that I know
             E            
 She's from South Carolina
         E7           
 And she came out here
    A           
 A few years ago
 
 She waits on tables
 
 Works in a bank
        E             E7 
 Volunteers at the zoo
      E             
 She sure ain't lazy
            E7       
 But she's very young
            A           
 That's why I called you
 
 She's only a girl

 Well man, now you seen her, what do you think?
 E    E7   
  Uh-huh...
 E        E7 
  Yeah....
 A                       
 Thought you'd say that..
 
 No? Alright, go ahead.
 E             E7          E           
 'Course I know. No you're wrong there.
         E7 
 Now listen:
 
 A            
 Love is blind
      A7         
 And deaf as well
        D            
 But I love this girl
 Dm             
 Can't you tell?
         A        
 She's only a girl
          E      
 And she loves me
