[A] But Dina, [E] I [D] had [A] no idea how much I'd need [E] her.
[D] In peaceful [A] times I'd hold her close and I'd feed [E] her.
[A] My heart starts palpitating when I think my guess was [E] wrong.
But I [D] think I'll get [E] along.
[G] She's a girl, she's a ball.
[A] But Dina, [D] [A] all I wanna do is please [E] her.
[D] My life has [E] been so settled and [A] she's the reason.
[E] [D] Just [E] one word from her and my [A] troubles are long gone.
[E] But [D] I think I'll get [A] along.
[G] She's just a girl, she's a ball .
.
[E] One [A] [D] .
[E] girl, [A] .
[D] [E] [A] she's a [D] [E] girl.
She's [A] just a [D] girl, [A] a Dina.
[E] My [D] heart [E] felt like a shattered [A] glass in an acid [E] bath.
[D] Felt like one of those [E] blatant acts [A] you'd find on a crazy [E] path.
[D] I'd have taught [A] myself to give her time she didn't need to ask.
Was [D] I a [E] suicidal psychopath?.
[G] She's just a girl, she's a ball.
She's just a girl, she's a ball.
[A] Come soon, [D] there was a beautiful [E] white horse [A] I saw on a dream [E] stage.
[A] It had a snake [E] the size of a sewer [A] pipe living in a drip cage.
[E] [D] I felt like [E] a fickle priest who [A] was being flumbed.
You [D] got me [A] requisitioned, blondie.
[G] She's just a girl, she's a ball.
I'm happy, I'm ecstatic.
[E] Just [A] [D] .
[E] [A] .
[D] [E] [A] [D] .
[E] [D] [A] a girl.
[G] .
[D] [A] .
[D] .
[E] [D] [E] .
[D] Looking through the face of a child.
I'll make her howl on you, [E] smile [D] before the memory [E] claims.
[D] How old would children remain?.
How long could children remain?.
[A] But Dina, [E] she [Dm] picked me up by my [A] lapel.
[E] I felt [D] like [A] waking up in heaven on an empty meter.
[E] And [D] now you're stuck [E] with a [A] castrated leader.
[E] I [D] didn't [E] [G] mean that.
She's a ball.
I just said it.
She's a ball.
Please.
She's a ball.
[A] I had no idea how much I'd need [E] her.
[D] My life would [E] be so settled if [A] she's the reason.
[E] Ooh, [D] .
[E] [A] [E] [D] what a get [E] along.
She's [G] just a girl.
She's a ball.
She's just a girl.
She's a ball .
