Girl from a Pawnshop
Three Snakes and One Charm
The Black Crowes
For the record, I only figured out the main chords. You can play this along with
the song and have it sound fine, and it's great for playing the song solo.
Verse 1:
C
With pawnshop eyes and a second hand frown
F C
she sat silent at the table
Her boots were brown, should she leave town
F C
To play the role of lover ex-patriot
A nod to the waiter,always her flirty behavior,
F C
You know she always gets one on the house
She pulls out a letter from a bag under her sweater
F C
And before she reads she straightens her blouse
Pre-Chorus:
G C G C
There's a passion in being alone A grace in a loveless time
G C
There's no new cross, there's no new sign
D G
only the sun and the changing tide
Chorus:
Em D
And out of respect, well I really must confess
C
I never lost your number I never
G
lost your address
Em
And if we remain friends at best
D
Sometime later no, no not yet
C G
we'll smile and remember it like this
Verse 2:
C
She put back the letter, one tear
falls like a feather
F
And disappears
C
on this bar room floor
The gratuity included, you know
the letter concluded
F C
P.S. All my love
Pre-Chorus
Chorus
Solo chords same as chorus, then
G G Cadd9 D
Ending:
G G Cadd9 D
P.S. All my love
Play the ending as many times as feels right. It has a super nice sound and I like
to play it quite a few times getting quieter and quieter on the last 3 or 4.
Enjoy!
