(ver. 1)
Gordon Lightfoot
CAPO: 2nd Fret




[INTRO:] G  G6  G  G6

[VERSE 1:]
 Am            D               Am
Alone upon the sidewalks of despair 
      D         G          G6   Am
'Twas there she wandered
         D               Am
With her suitcase in her hand
    D        G          G6
Her fate she pondered


[CHORUS:]
G      C             G             C              D
Only a go-go girl in love with someone who didn't care
    Am           D                       Am
She met him on a night so rare, when her friends were there
        D        G          G6  G  G6
And the band was grooving


[VERSE 2:]
Am             D                    Am
When he gave a glance that said how much 
         D       G         G6
He would like to meet her 
Am             D           Am
How was she to know at the time
   D        G          G6
He would mistreat her


[BRIDGE:]
G               C              
In her cage she danced for him
  G                C                    D
Although a hundred eyes were turned her way
Am             D                  Am
And before the set was through he knew
          D      G          G6
She would be his loved one


[CHORUS:]
G      C             G             C              D
Only a go-go girl in love with someone who didn't care
Am          D              Am
Only twenty-one she was, a young girl
     D       G          G6  G  G6
Just in from somewhere


[INSTRUMENTAL:] Am  D  Am  D  G  G6  Am  D  Am  D  G  G6  G  G6


[VERSE 3:]
     Am            D             Am
He's playing up in Michigan in a group 
     D          G       G6
They call the Intended 
       Am         D              Am
With a kiss and a promise he was gone
    D        G       G6
The song was ended


[BRIDGE:]
    G                C              
But as she walks she waits for him
    G             C                D
The pavement is a shoulder for her tears 
    Am               D                 Am
But in her heart she knows there is no way
        D       G           G6
She can hope to change him


[CHORUS:]
G      C             G             C              D
Only a go-go girl in love with someone who didn't care
Am          D              Am
Only twenty-one she was, a young girl
     D       G           G6 
Just in from somewhere


[CHORUS:]
G      C             G             C              G
Only a go-go girl in love with someone who didn't care
  C             G     G6
A go-go girl in love
