D G F (w/riff 3) If I were a barker in a girly show,

D        G           F    D              G                 A7
 Tell ya what I'd do, I'd lock the door, tear my shirt and let my river flow. 

    G                         Em
Oh, oh, Sweet Jemima wont'cha come out tonight?

The ground is so warm and the moon is so bright!

[rpt intro] Jemima Surrender, that's all you had to do, I'll bring over my Fender And I'll play all night for you. There's a bird on my head And his mouth won't talk, You know he laughs just like a goose, But looks like a hawk Jemima, you know what I'm try'n to say, Meet me in the front and we'll fly away. Solo D Csus2 G/B A7 D Csus2 G/B A7

F                   G
You can change your  name

                  C
You can find a new walk

                E
You can change a lock, its all the same

F                     G
You don't have to give out

                   C
If you'll only give in

                                    A
You can jump and shout but can't you see girl, that I'm bound to win

[riff 2 into verse] [rpt verse] Jemima Surrender, I'm gonna give it to you, Ain't no pretender, gonna see my tattoo; I hand you my rod and you hand me that line, That's what you do, now, we ain't doing much fishin' Or drinkin' any wine. Sweet Jemima, if I were a king I'd fix you up with a diamond ring. [riff 1] [riff 2] --> D ------------------- [riffs transcribed for bass in standard tuning] riff 1:
