Text File

This is an amazing song off of Beck's new album, "Guero" - one of his finest works.
Timing is tricky in the beginning, I suggest you listen to the song to get the rhythm
down. To help you out, I put the chord on top of the word.

Bb           G#
I saw her, yea I saw her
           C#
 With a black tongue tied 
 Bb                                                 G#
Round the roses a fist pounding on a vending machine
 C#                     Bb
Toy diamond ring stuck on her finger
            (bass enters) 
 With a noose she could hang from the sun
       G#                       C#
 And put it out with the dark sunglasses
 Bb
Walking crooked down the beach
       G#
She spits in the sand
                 C#
Where their bones are bleaching

 CH:
F        G#                                D# ->
And I know I'm gonna steal her eye
 She doesn't even know it's wrong
F            G#                             D#->
 And you know I'm gonna make it die
 Take her where her soul belongs
F  G#                               G
 Know I'm gonna steal her eye
 F#
 Nothing that I wouldn't try
 F    D#                 Bb
           My summer girl
F      D#             Bb
 Hey my summer girl
 My summer girl
 Hey my summer girl

 I saw her, yea I saw her
 With her hands tied back
 Her rags are burnin'
 Calling out from a landfilled life
 Scrawling her name up on the ceiling
 Throw a coin in the fountain of dust
 White noise, her ears are ringing
 Got a ticket for my midnight hanging
 Throw a bullet from a freight train leaving

CHORUS
