INTRO:
D . . . .Em . . . .D . . . .Em

VERSE 1
D
She’s as high as a kite
. . . . . . . . . . .Em
And then she’s down
. . . D
She floats in on the wind
. . . . . . . . . . Em
And then back out
Am
She sings like a songbird
. . . . Em
Then screams like a crow
Am
Just what she’ll do next
. . . . . Em
No one ever knows

CHORUS:
. . . Em . . . . . . . . . . . . .C
But when she’s mad, she’s angry,
Em . . . . . . . . . . . . .C
And she’ll wreck your world.
Em . . . . . . . C
She’s a manic tornado,
Em . . . . . . . C
She’s a manic girl

BRIDGE:
Am
Flying through the air,
. . . . G
She’s beautiful
Am
Dancing through the clouds,
. . . . G
It’s magical,
. . . B . . . . . . . . . . .Em
But when she hits the ground,
. . . . . . . D . . . . . . . Em
She throws everything around
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .B
And she’ll knock you down
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Em
... down...down...down...

INSTRUMENTAL BREAK
verse & chorus
End on a B chord

VERSE 2
She’s a sweet pussy cat,
But watch your back.
She hides in the grass
And then attacks.

She’s got everything she needs,
But nothing that she wants.
And when you think she’s done,
She hasn’t had enough.

CHORUS AND BRIDGE

CODA:
Am
Is she right in the head?
Em
Is she taking her meds?
Am
Is she seeing things straight?
Em
Did she crash through the gate?
Am
Is she in her little world?
Em
She’s just in her little world.
Am
In her own little world.
Em
In her own little world.

CHORUS
End on an Em chord

OUTRO:
Coda (x2)
Vamp on Am
End on an Em chord
