This little gem is a bonus track on the re-release of the 'Discovery' album. 
Previously unreleased by ELO it has some great production values. Originally by 
del Shannon this version is half a step down, which suits Jeff's voice perfect, and mine!

C                                Am
Here she comes, that little town flirt.
                   F                         G7
You're falling for her, and you're gonna get hurt.
        E                      E7
Yeah, I know it's so hard to resist,
        F
the temptation of her tender red lips.
                C             Am
But you can get hurt, hur-hur-hurt.
Am                C                   Am
Yeah, you can get hur, hur, hur, hur, hurt..
         F       G7                    C
Fooling around...with that little town flirt.

C                                     Am
Here she comes, with that look in her eye.
           F                               G7
She plays around, with every guy that goes by.
        E                          E7
Yeah, I know she's gonna treat you wrong,
        F
so your heart just had better be strong,
                  C               Am
cause you can get hurt, hur, hur, hurt..
Am                C                   Am
Yeah, you can get hur, hur, hur, hur, hurt..
         F       G7                    C      C7
Fooling around...with that little town flirt.

CHORUS:
F                    C
I know how you feel, you think her love is real.
F               G7                C
You think this time she'll be sincere.
           E
But you'll think you got a paper heart,
         F
when she starts to tear it apart.
D                          G7   G
That's when she'll let you go...whoa-whoa-whoa.

      E                          E7
But I know she's gonna treat you wrong,
