Stop that girl    (intro)

 

     - - - - - - - - - - -   G    - A                                             D

1. Every now and then         you find someone who’s wrong for you,

                             G    - A                                      D

    and I know so well,        I’ve got someone just like that, too.

 

        D                                                 E

So stop that girl, don’t let her get too near to me,

                               Gm                                         D

don’t let her get too near to me, she’ll break my heart.

        D                                                E

So stop that girl, isn’t there anyone hearing me,

                               Gm                                      F#m    - Em - A

isn’t there anyone hearing me, she’ll break my heart.

 

     D  - - - - - - - - - -  G    - A                                    D

2.     I must stop myself,         she’s the bad one, that’s for sure,

                               G        - A                                         D

    she’ll just play around,        you see, I’ve known her times before.

 

+ CHORUS

 

       G                                      F#m

    I do wish she wouldn’t love every man free,

               G          A          D      - D7

    she’s sorry to turn me on.

      G                                           F#m

    Help me, somebody, keep her out of my way

            Em                              A

    I’ve started to fall, and I’ve fallen before.

 

     - - - - - - -  G      - A                                          D

3. Will I ever learn,      if I’d known I’d walk right out of here,

                                    G       - A                                       

    it’s still not too late now,

                                                       D

   some tthings don’t seem to be quite that clear.

 

+ CHORUS    …
