Here Comes My Girl

  A                   B/A            Amaj7               B/A 
 
VERSE 1: 
A 
  You know, sometimes, I don't know why 
  B/A                               Amaj7       B/A 
  But this whole town just seems so hopeless 
A                                             B/A 
  I ain't really sure but it seems I remember the good times 
                         Amaj7             B/A 
  Were just a little bit more in focus 
A                                   B/A 
  But when she puts her arms around me 
       Amaj7               B/A 
  I can somehow rise above it 
A                                      B/A 
  Yeah man when I got that little girl standing right by my side 
                 Amaj7                        B/A 
  You know I can tell the whole wide world to shove it 
 
CHORUS: 
                    E      A                  E      A 
  Hey here comes my girl        Here comes my girl 
F#m            B (normal B chord) 
  Yeah and she looks so right She is all I need tonight 
 
VERSE 2:Every now and then I get down to the end of a day 
    	I'll just have to stop, ask myself, "What've I done?" 
		It just seems so useless to have to work so hard 
		And nothin' ever really seem to come from it 
		And then she looks me in the eye, says, "We gonna last forever," 
		And man, you know I can't begin to doubt it 
		No, because this feels so good and so free and so right 
		I know we ain't never goin' change our minds about it 
 
CHORUS and then BREAK (see bottom) 
 
VERSE 3:Yeah every time it seems there ain't nothin' left no more 
		I find myself havin' to reach out and grab hold of somethin' 
		Yeah, I just catch myself wanderin', waitin', worryin' 
		About some silly little things that don't add up to nothin' 
		And then she looks me in the eye, says, "We gonna last forever," 
		And man, you know I can't begin to doubt it 
		No, because this feels so good and so free and so right 
		I know we ain't never goin' change our minds about it 
 
CHORUS then END  
(the ending is just the first and last measures of the VERSE: A to B/A) 
 
BREAK: This break repeats three times, and the fourth time just 
       continues the same vamp on the E and A strings, to VERSE 3. 
       
  F#5                                                        The numbers  
B------------------------0^2^0--------2-| F#5  | | | | | |   chord diagram 
G-------------------------------3-----3-|      T | | | 1 |  (and E9 below)  
								Thumb. 
 
The '^' means hammer on the first time, and pull off the second time. 
When pulling off, sort of flick the B string so it rings clearly. 
 
Also, the E in the CHORUS can be played with an E9 in the middle: 
 
  E     E9    E                                         o       o 
|                 |              Use the            E9  | | | 1 | |  
| /   / /   / / / |     "down/down/up/up/down/up"       | 2 3 | | 4  
|                 |               strum.                | | | | | |  
  1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 
                             
                                   ENJOY! 
                    "If I was sad, well, I'm happy now"
