THE GIRL (CHAPTER 2)
As recorded by Jamie Webster
(From the 2024 Album 10 FOR THE PEOPLE)
[Intro]
Am G Am G
[Verse 1]
Am G
She runs around in the dirty streets
Am G
To find the latest to fix
Am
Confusing, oh, with the way she speaks
G Am
She's on the edge, she's close to turning her tricks
[Pre-Chorus]
G Dm Am
Slow down, little lady, you're moving too fast
Em Am
There's another way to go
Dm Am
Slow down and, darling, maybe you can break through the glass
C G
And give yourself a dice to throw
[Chorus]
F
Maybe someday she'll smile, take a trip down the Nile
C Em
Reach the top of the pile
Am
Live her own life of wealth with her family
F C G
But right now she needs the brave to fight to get herself
F C
She needs to get herself talking right, walking right
Em Am
Kicking leaves on a Northern night
F C G
And I guess God only knows just how her life fulfills
Am G Am G
If we could only help the girl
[Verse 2]
Am G
She feels the call of a strong morning wind as
Am G
She readies up for the day
Am
Nobody's giving her anything, no time alone
Am
That's why she ran down the way
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm Am
Slow down, little lady, you're moving too fast
Em Am
There's another way to go
Dm Am
Slow down and, darling, maybe you can break through the glass
C G
And give yourself a dice to throw
[Chorus]
F C
There could be times when she'll smile, take a trip down the Nile
C Em
Reach the top of the pile
Am
Live her own life of wealth with her family
F C G
But right now she needs the brave to fight to get herself
F C
She needs to get herself talking right, walking right
Em Am
Kicking leaves on a Northern night
F C G
And I guess God only knows just how her life fulfills
Am
If we could only help the girl
[Bridge]
Am
Won't somebody help the girl?
F
Why won't somebody help the girl?
[Guitar Solo]
C Em Am F C G
[Out-Chorus]
F C
Smile, take a trip down the Nile
C Em
Reach the top of the pile
Am
Live her own life of wealth with her family
F C G
But right now she needs the brave to fight to get herself
F C
She needs to get herself talking right, walking right
Em Am
Kicking leaves on a Northern night
F C G
And I guess God only knows just how her life fulfills
Am
Surely we could help the girl
