Berkeley Girl 
Harper Simon

Tuning: Capo on third fret

Intro:    C  Dm  G  C

C                   Dm          
She is juniper and roses

G                     C
She is amethyst and pearl

                                                C                                   
And though she makes her home 
    Dm
in Hollywood

G                                   C
She's really just a Berkeley girl

                                       C                                Dm
She's the breeze on Sunday morning

G                                C
Blowin' down the country lane

                                         C                                  Dm
She's got the style of Paulette Goddard
G                          C
And the smile of Joan Fonteyne


           Dm       C         G
And she drives a Carmen Ghia

                Dm          C     G
Through the streets of Silver Lake

           Am  G  F  C G
And the hills of Echo Park



C                     Dm          
She is crinoline and satin

G                         C
She is leopard skin and lace

                                           C                             Dm
Hard to believe that she believed in me

G                            C
When I was such a hopeless case

                                         C                                 Dm
And she knows from love and service

G                             C
Yes she knows from peace of mind

                                       C                        Dm
To be not sinister in purpose

 G                       C
And to never be unkind



           Dm     C     G
And she loves a Tulsi garden

           Dm        C         G
And she loves her rock and roll

             Am G F   C        G
And she's never far from my mind

G7
No...........


C                    Dm             
She is juniper and roses

G                       C
Guess I'll say it once again

                                        C                                Dm
And though we are no longer lovers

G                           C
I know she'll always be my friend

C                             Dm
So if you ever ride beside her

G                               C
Travellin' down the one – oh – one

                                              C                                  Dm
Be thankful that you're with a Berkeley girl

                                         G                                C
Who's beautiful beneath the moon and the sun

C                      Dm                                   G
Ahaaaa...............Ahaaaa.............Ahaaa......ah.....ah

C                      Dm                                   G
Ahaaaa...............Ahaaaa.............Ahaaa......ah.....ah

Mmmmmmmmm..........
                     C Dm G C
Ahaaaaa............Berkeley girl
