I once had a girl, or should I say, she once had me

D

C

G

D

She showed me her room, isn't it good, Norwegian wood

Dm

G

She asked me to stay and she told me to sit anywhere

Dm

Em

A

So I looked around and I noticed there wasn't a chair

D

C

G

D

I sat on a rug, biding my time, drinking her wine

D

C

G

D

We talked until two, and then she said, it's time for bed

Intro riff x2

Dm

She told me she worked in the morning and started to laugh

I told her I didn't and crawled off to sleep in the bath

And when I awoke, I was alone, this bird had flown

So, I lit a fire, isn't it good, Norwegian wood

I have had enough, so act your age!

D

Dm

A

We have lost the time that was so hard to find

A

B7

D

A

And I will lose my mind if you won't see me (you won't see me)

D

A

You won't see me (you won't see me) I don't know why you should want to hide But I can't get through, my hands are tied I won't want to stay, I don't have much to say But I can turn away, and you won't see me (you won't see me) You won't see me (you won't see me)

D6

Dm6

A

Time after time you refuse to even listen

B7

E7

I wouldn't mind if I knew what I was missing Though the days are few they're filled with tears And since I lost you it feels like years Yes, it seems so long, girl since you've been gone And I just can't go on if you won't see me (you won't see me) You won't see me (you won't see me) Time after time you refuse to even listen I wouldn't mind if I knew what I was missing Though the days are few they're filled with tears And since I lost you it feels like years Yes, it seems so long, girl since you've been gone And I just can't go on if you won't see me (you won't see me) You won't see me (you won't see me)

What goes on in your heart?

It's so easy for a girl like you to lie; tell me why What goes on in your heart? What goes on in your mind? You are tearing me apart When you treat me so unkind What goes on in your mind?

I met you in the morning, waiting for the tides of time

E7

But now the tide is turning I can see that I was blind

It's so easy for a girl like you to lie; tell me why What goes on in your heart? What goes on in your mind? You are tearing me apart When you treat me so unkind What goes on in your mind?

E7

Am

I used to think of no one else, but you were just the same

E7

Am

You didn't even think of me, as someone with a name

Am

E

B7

Did you mean to break my heart and watch me die? Tell me why What goes on in your heart? What goes on in your mind? You are tearing me apart When you treat me so unkind What goes on in your mind?

Ah, girl Ah, girl When I think of all the times I've tried so hard to leave her She will come to me and start to cry And she promises the earth to me and I believe her After all this time I don't know why Ah, girl Ah, girl

Am

E

She's the kind of girl who puts you down when friends are there

Am

E

You feel a fool

Am

E

When you say she's looking good, she acts as if it's understood

Am

C

She's cool, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh Ah, girl Ah, girl Was she told when she was young that pain would lead to pleasure? Did she understand it when they said That a man must break his back to earn his day of leisure Will she still believe it when he's dead? Ah, girl Ah, girl
