Album: The normal years 1996

Standard Tuning. This is one hell of a fun song to play.
You'll find a few pointers on strumming and intonating the
different parts on the bottom of the tab. But just listen
to the song and you'll get it.
Enjoy !
sitting at the railway station
reading books bout intimidation
waiting for my girl to come
and if she does will she be dumb or
really smart
will she break my heart and
wad it up and throw it in my face
I knew I'd find a nice girl someday
find a nice girl settle down
someone I can talk to
someone I don't have to talk to
someone who'll gimme time and gimme space
and take it all away
sitting at the bus station
reading books bout legislation
suddenly my girl comes and
she's not even dumb in fact she's
kinda smart
will she break my heart
wad it up and throw it in my face
I knew I'd find a nice girl someday
find a nice girl settle down
someone I can talk to
someone I don't have to talk to
someone who'll gimme time and gimme space
and take it all away
actually I've never even been to a railroad station
even though I used to live near one and
still I'm waiting for my girl to come and
if she does will she be dumb or
really smart
will she break my heart and
wad it up and throw it in my face
wad it up and throw it in my face
I knew I'd find a nice girl someday
find a nice girl settle down
someone I can talk to
someone I don't have to talk to
someone I can talk to
someone I don't have to talk to
someone I can talk to
someone I don't have to talk to
someone I can talk to
someone I don't have to talk to
someone I can talk to
someone I don't have to talk to
