Lyrics
Intro d bm g (three times) then g a
B e Sit by my window and look outside A g#m e Wonder why a sun don't shine on me B e What's wrong with you, you stupid child A g#m c# Don't you think that I'm the one you're waiting to see F# b Don't talk too much cause she falls for the soft touch D e Makes her feel everything is secure G a d Don't ever leave a footprint on the floor
Chorus D bm g Don't bother with the local girls D bm g Don't bother with the local girls D bm g g a Don't bother with the local girls
B e She's probably halfwit she must be straight A g#m e Bound to have a mother who knows nothing but hate B e Don't want to laugh I'd rather knock her down A g#m c# Standing at the bus stop where she waits each morning F# b So isolated that she thinks that the army D e Is the place where a man oughta be G a d Don't bother with them they don't bother me
Repeat chorus (plus) D g Don't bother with the.... local girls
Bridge A g a g They got the walk they got the talk right down without a flaw A g g a d At six oclock I got to stop my dreaming at the counter of the store D bm g d bm g Don't bother with them D bm g g a
B e Without a doubt I gotta intercept A g#m e Must be time someone went shouted in their ear B e You look all right in that cheap green dress A g#m c# But every time you swish it round you make me disappear F# b Yes I'm aware of exactly what I'm doing D e Making everything a mystery G a d Don't bother with it, it don't bother me
Chorus
(3 times) and fade
