This is my 1st Tab. But I cant take the credit as this is edited from

My sister loves this song, so when she asked me for the chords, I sent her
to this site, and though she was more than happy, I felt some of it needed
a tweak - so here you go;

 
Artist: Harper Simon
Song: Berkeley Girl         Edited by Mockers

Tuning: Capo on third fret

Intro:    C  Dm  G  G7   C

C                   Dm          G
She is juniper and roses

         G7          C
She is amethyst and pearl

                                  Dm              G
And though she makes her home in Hollywood

                G7          C
Shes really just a Berkeley girl

                          Dm            G
Shes the breeze on Sunday morning

               G7       C
Blowin down the country lane

                          Dm               G
Shes got the style of Paulette Goddard

                          C
And the smile of Joan Fonteyne


         F      C       Dm
And she drives a Carmen Ghia

            F          C      Dm
Through the streets of Silver Lake

       F Em F   C    G
And the hills of Echo Park



C                    Dm          G
She is crinoline and satin

               G7       C
She is leopard skin and lace

                          Dm               G
Hard to believe that she believed in me

                 G7        C
When I was such a hopeless case

                            Dm            G
And she knows from love and service

               G7           C
Yes she knows from peace of mind

                      Dm             G
To be not sinister in purpose

             G7    C
And to never be unkind



        F      C      Dm
And she loves a Tulsi garden

        F        C        Dm
And she loves her rock and roll

         F Em F    C     G
And shes never far from my mind



C                  Dm           G
She is juniper and roses

                G7    C
Guess Ill say it once again

                             Dm           G
And though we are no longer lovers

                   G7     C
I know shell always be my friend

                       Dm            G
So if you ever ride beside her

                               C
Travellin down the one oh one

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

                          C
Whos beautiful beneath the moon and the sun

C                      Dm                 G            G7       C
Ahaaaa...............Ahaaaa.............Ahaaa......ah.....ah

C                      Dm                 G        
Ahaaaa...............Ahaaaa.............Ahaaa......ah.....ah
G7
Mmmmmmmmm..........
F         G       C
Ahaaaaa............Berkeley girl
