Chords and lyrics for Girl by Beck (key of A#m).
Verse 1
This is an amazing song off of Beck's new album, "Guero" - one of his
finest works.
Timing is tricky in the beginning, I suggest you listen to the song to get
the rhythm
down.
Verse 1
[Bb]I saw her, [Ab]yeah I saw her
With a [Db]black tongue tied [Bb]round the roses
[Bb]A fist pounding on a [Ab]vending machine
[Db]Toy diamond ring [Bb]stuck on her finger
[Bb]With a noose she could hang from the sun
And [Ab]put it out with the [Db]dark sunglasses
[Bb]Walking crooked down the beach
She [Ab]spits in the sand where their [Db]bones are bleaching
Pre-Chorus
[F]And I [Ab]know I'm gonna steal her eye
[Eb]She doesn't even know what's [F]wrong
And you [Ab]know I'm gonna make it die
[Eb]Take her where her soul [F]belongs
[Ab]Know I'm gonna steal her [Gm]eye
[Gb]Nothing that I wouldn't try
Chorus
[F]Hey[Eb] My sun-eyed [Bb]girl
[F]Hey[Eb] my sun-eyed [Bb]girl

Verse 2
[Bb]I saw her, [Ab]yeah I saw her
With her [Db]hands tied back, her [Bb]rags are burnin'
[Bb]Calling out from a [Ab]landfilled life
[Db]Scrawling her name up [Bb]on the ceiling
[Bb]Throw a coin in the fountain of dust
[Ab]White noise, her [Db]ears are ringing
[Bb]Got a ticket for my midnight hanging
[Ab]Throw a bullet from a [Db]freight train leaving
Pre-Chorus
[F]And I [Ab]know I'm gonna steal her eye
[Eb]She doesn't even know what's [F]wrong
And you [Ab]know I'm gonna make it die
[Eb]Take her where her soul [F]belongs
[Ab]Know I'm gonna steal her [Gm]eye
[Gb]Nothing that I wouldn't try
