Am                             C                     Am
Well I met her in a bar, the men with big guitars were playin

Am C

                  Am
And I listened with my ears but I couldn’t hear what she was sayin

         F                        C
And I guess she talked with her mind

        C                       E
But didn’t want to seem to unkind so I just laughed

F                    C
And kept my eyes peeled to the door

C
Wondering what I was there for

  C5                       A5
But it’s alright, it’s alright

   C5                      E5
It’s alright, it’s alright

        A5           C5          G5            E5*         A5*
I got my nuts from a hippy in a camper van on Saturday night

Same chords as previous verse- here are the lyrics Well I asked if she believed in Adam and Eve the fable And I guess she would’ve given me an answer if only she was able And she danced like a medicine man Drew a crazy picture on my hand and told me She wanted to change my point of view Asked me where I was going to Am

  C5                       A5
But it’s alright, it’s alright

   C5                      E5
It’s alright, it’s alright

             A5              C5            G5                 E5*         A5*
