 How it's played:

 [riff 1]

 1-2-3-4

 [riff 1] [riff 2]

 A
 Walking like a man, hitting like a hammer,
 she's a juvenile scam. Never was a quitter,
 tasty like a raindrop, she's got the look.
 Heavenly bound cause heaven's got a number
 when she's spinning me around, kissing is a colour,
 her loving is a wild dog, she's got the look.

 [riff 2]
               A                   A
 She's got the look. She's got the look.
                                                   A
 What in the world can make a brown-eyed girl turn blue.
                                          A
 When everything I'll ever do I'll do for you
           G           D
 and I go: la la la la la she's got the look.

 A
 Fire in the ice,
 naked to the T-bone is a lover's disguise.
 Banging on the head drum,
 shaking like a mad bull, she's got the look.

 [riff 2]

 A
 Swaying to the band,
 moving like a hammer, she's a miracle man.
 Loving is the ocean,
 kissing is the wet sand, she's got the look.

 [riff 2]

 [Chorus]

 Walking like a man, hitting like a hammer,
 she's a juvenile scam. Never was a quitter,
 tasty like a raindrop, she's got the look.

 And she goes: na na na na na na na na.


 The rest of the song is just choruses and riff 2's as required.

 The verses are mainly played on the bass, but a guitar can
 play: A C G if you like.
