"I wish I was a girl" Counting Crows DarkKarma17@aol.com Along with "All of my friends" this is the coolest song on the album you need two guitars, or one acoustic and you can forget the riff at the bridge and play rhythm (I think it sounds best on acoustic) Follow up to "goodnight elizibeth" (Recovering the satellites) Esus4: 022200 Intro/verse (the E-riff) E Esus4 E Esus4 E this riff until... "You're surprised, and then you wake." Prechorus
G#m For all the thinAgs you're losing. You mighEt as well resigEsus4n yourselfE to try and make a change. G#m And I'mA going down to Hollywood. They're gBonna make a movie from the things
That they find crawling round my brain. Chorus
A I Bwish I waC#ms a girl So Bthat you Acould believe me And BI could shakC#me this stBatic every time I tAry to sleep I Bwish forC#m all the world That BI could say "HEey, Elizabeth, yoF#u know I'm doing all right These Adays."B;
Teh Bridge The E riff... and then...this with the E riff after another verse, or two and a chorus ---------------- --9--9--7--7---- ----9--9--9--9-- ---------------- ---------------- ----------------
And inA one of these dreams YoEu forgive me. It makesF#m me think of the bad decisions That Akeep you at home. How Ecould anAyone else have changed, F#m But these are wrong conclusions That Aleave you alone. How EcouldA everyone rearrange' How Ecould everAyone else have changed' What I F#msee I beAlieve.
EFor all the things I'm losing I might as well rEesign myself to Esus4try and make a Echange. G#m And I'mA going down to Hollywood. They're gBonna make a movie from the things That they find crawling round my brain.
