[G] Here's another little tune that was hidden away in a corner on Black Sea.
So all you smiley Germans, [C]
we've got Booker T.
Gregory over here, okay?
Never seen a woman, got that freshest soul, like some Aurora, from her hair to [A#] her slowing
reaching [Gm] through the canal all around like an Avahol.
[C] Never [A] heard her singing, now she's gently ringing, [C] like a couple of winters, while I'm here.
Never heard her singing, got the [Gm] screaming, never heard of the creamers, looking at her
smiling like a Georgia brown.
[A#] She, [F] she's got a way to make [A#] her own life, all you do [F] is smile, if you [G] banish the
[C] She [G] said she's fine, [F] well, give her the

[B] [E] [C] [F#]
[B] [E] [C]
Now you see I'm smiling, like you do my lining, I learn the lesson, like in the [Gm] styling, all
the woman's eating, throw the rhyme, I didn't listen to her.
I [G] can't stop the spitting, [F] so I put to my witting, with my symbolism in the air spinning,
I'm a-crashing [Gm] through the walls, never falling, no me way, with the surviving, she's got the [A#] wrong life.
She, [F] she's got a way to make her own life, [C] all you do [F] is smile, if you [G] banish the
[Bm] [C] She said she's [G] fine, well, [F] give her the
[C] She said [Em] she's fine, [F] I'll probably give her some shoes.
[C] She said [Em] she's fine, [F] well, give her the
[D] [C] She said she's
[F#m] [B] [E]
[C] [F#m] [B] [E]
[C] Now everybody need to swivel the place for [F] me.
Wo, wo, wo, wo, wo, wo, oh, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
[C] Now everybody just seriously to please at [F] work.
Wo, wo, wo, wo, woioioioioioioioioioi.
[G] [C]
[A#] She, [F] she's got a way to make her own life, all you do [F] is smile, [G] ooh
[C] She said [G] she's fine, [F] well I'm telling the truth
Well, [C] she [G] said she's [F] fine
Oh, I don't forgive [C] sexual
She [Em] said she's [F] fine
I'm too busy, I'm too busy, busy, busy, busy, busy
[C] She said she

[E] [C] [Dm]
[F] [C] I said I'm taking all of that, I'm turning down, it's a death, death, death, [F] death, death, death, death, death, death, [C] death
Oh, this is gonna be night of love and day [Cm] of war, and I'm gonna spend the night
