Jessie is a friend,
D A Bm G A D
Yeah I know, he's been a good friend of mine
D A Bm G A D
But lately something's changed, it ain't hard to define
D A Bm G A D
Jessie's got himself a girl, and I wanna make her mine
Pre-Chorus
D A Bm G A D
And she's watching him with those eyes,
D A Bm G A D
And she's loving him with that body, I just know it,
D A Bm G A D
And he's holding her in his arms, late late at night
Chorus
A A D A Bm Asus4
You know, I wish that I had Jessie's girl,
Bm Asus4 A D A Bm Asus4 Bm Asus4
I wish that I had Jessie's girl,
G A D Bm A
Where can I find her, a woman like that?
I play along with the charade,
There doesn't seem to be a reason to change,
You know I feel so dirty when they start talking cute,
I want to tell her that I love her but the point is probably moot.
Pre-chorus Chorus Chorus
A D A Bm Asus4

Where can I find her, a woman,
G A D Bm A
Where can I find her, a woman like that?

G D A
And I'm looking in the mirror all the time,
G D A
Wondering what she don't see in me
G D A
Yeah I've been funny I've been cool with the lines
G D A
Ain't that the way love's supposed to be?
