Tuning: G C E A

Jill Sobule is a singer/songwriter with a flair for lyrics and arrangments. Her self-titled debut is out on Lava/Atlantic. I recommend it highly! Here's her first single off the album, also playing as a music video right now. -- Ali. -------------------------------------------- I KISSED A GIRL (Jill Sobule, Robin Eaton (c) 1994) reprinted without permission VERSE:

^GGenny came over and told me about Fred He's ^Csuch a hairy behemoth she said And ^Amdumb as a box of hammers But he's ^Gsuch a handsome guy And I ^Gopened up and told her about Larry And^C yesterday how he asked me to marry I'm^Am not giving him an answer yet I ^Gthink I can do better

CHORUS:

So we^Em laughed, com^Ampared notes We ^Emhad a drink, we had a smoke ^AmShe took off ^Cher overcoat I kissed ^Ga gi^Crl ^Em ^A I kissed ^Ga gi^Crl ^Em ^A

VERSE: So she called home to say she'd be late He said, he worried but now he'd feel safe I'm glad you're with your girlfriend, Tell her "Hi" for me So I looked at you, you had guilt in your eyes But it only lasted a little while And then I felt your hand upon my knee CHORUS:

And we ^Emlaughed at the ^Amworld ^EmThey can have their diamonds And ^Amwe'll have our ^Cpearls I kissed ^Ga gi^Crl ^Em ^A I kissed ^Ga gi^Crl ^Em ^A

BRIDGE:

I ^Fkissed a girl, her lips were sweet ^CShe was just like kissing me I ^Dkissed a girl, won't change the world

But I'm so glad

I kissed ^Ga girl

(GUITAR SOLO) And we laughed at the world They can have their diamonds And we'll have our pearls I kissed a girl (for the first time) I kissed a girl (and I may do it again) I kissed a girl I kissed a girl I kissed a girl, her lips were sweet She was just like kissing me (but better) I kissed a girl I kissed a girl, won't change the world But I'm so glad I kissed a girl (for the first time) I kissed a girl (won't be the last time) I kissed a girl I kissed a girl
