I'm Looking For A Girl - Teddy Thompson

Tabbed by Roj Vincent

C
I'm looking for a girl who drinks and smokes
C
Who takes a lot of work but can take a joke
C
Where does this girl of mine hide herself away
C
Whoever she is I hope she's on her way
            F
I've been looking for a girl
            C
I've been looking for a girl
            F                                  G   C
I've been looking for a girl who knows how to love me

I'm looking for a girl who's good in bed
Who knows when it's time to knock it on the head
I guess it's good lovin' that I want the most
Someone who turns my bread into buttered toast
I've been looking for a girl
I've been looking for a girl
I've been looking for a girl who knows how to love me

I'm looking for a girl who won't scream and shout
When I disappear for weeks like a roust-about
This kind of good lovin' is hard to find
The perfect combination of the cruel and kind
I've been looking for a girl
I've been looking for a girl
I've been looking for a girl who knows how to love me

             Am           F        Am
I see those couples go a-streamin' by
G                           F         G
Lookin' so easy like they don't even try
             Am                 F          G
It's like a magic trick like sleight of hand
F                   C     G
Sawn in half by a golden band

Instrumental Break  (C F C G C)

I'm looking for a girl easy on the eye
But not so freakin' stupid that I want to cry
A bloke out doesn't give her both his hands
So I guess I just need someone I can stand
I've been looking for a girl
I've been looking for a girl
I've been looking for a girl who knows how to love me
Yeah yeah?
I've been looking for a girl who knows how to love me
I've been looking for a girl who knows how to love me
