Teddy Thompson - Looking For A Girl

      [Intro]
C

[Verse]
C
I've been looking for a girl who won't scream and shout
C
When I disappear for weeks like a roustabout
C
This kind of good loving is hard to find
C
The perfect combination of the cruel and kind

[Chorus]
          F
I've been looking for a girl
          C
I've been looking for a girl
          G                      F                  C
I've been looking for a girl who knows how to love me

[Verse]
C
I've been looking for a girl who is good in bed
C
Who knows when it's time to knock it on the head
C
I guess it's good loving that I want the most
C
Someone who turns my bread into buttered toast

[Chorus]
          F
I've been looking for a girl
          C
I've been looking for a girl
          G                      F                  C
I've been looking for a girl who knows how to love me

[Verse 3]
C
I've been looking for a girl who drinks and smokes
C
Who takes a lot of drugs and can take a joke
C
Where does this girl of mine hide herself away?
C
Whoever she is I hope she's on her way

[Chorus]
          F
I've been looking for a girl
          C
I've been looking for a girl
          G                      F                  C    Am
I've been looking for a girl who knows how to love me

[Bridge]
            G             F         C
I see those couples going streaming by
G                          C               Am
Looking so easy, like they don't even try
            G              F          C
It's like a magic trick or sleight of hand
G                 Dm7      C
Sawn in half by a golden band

[Verse]
C
I've been looking for a girl easy on the eyes
C
But not so stupid that I want to cry
C
I know god doesn't give with both his hands
C
So I guess I just need someone I can stand

[Chorus]
          F
I've been looking for a girl
          C
I've been looking for a girl
          G                      F                  C
I've been looking for a girl who knows how to love me
                      G                      F                  C
Yeah, yeah, I've been looking for a girl who knows how to love me
                 G                      F                  C
Woahh, I've been looking for a girl who knows how to love me
