I’ve been trying to learn the song «Some Girls Do» by Sawyer Brown
and I’m having a little trouble picking up the main riff by ear.
Maybe I’m having a bad week.
Anyway, heres what I’ve figured out so far. If anyone has some
input, please post or send me email.
Thanks in advance,

NOTE: This is from one-days memory, so I may have made mistakes
[A] [G] [D]
She turned up her nose as she walked by my Cadillac
[A] [G] [D]
From the corner of my eye I saw you and you laughed
[A]
You were sittin on the swing on your front porch
[G]
Paintin your nails like you were bored
[A] [G] [D]
And you yelled «She was sure impressed with you»
CHORUS:
[G]
Well I ain’t first class
[A]
But I ain’t white trash
[G] [A]
I’m wild and a little crazy too
[G] [A]
Some girls don’t like boys like me
[G] [A] [D]
Awe, some girls do
[A] [G] [D]
I yelled and asked if you would like a ride
[A] [G] [D]
When we pulled out of your yard, I bald a tire
[A]
You was laughing at me, I was doing James Dean
[G]
You was the prettiest girl I’d seen
[A] [G] [D]
When you rolled your eyes and twirled my pink fur dice
[A]
Well good ole boys don’t get no breaks
[G]
And rich boys think they got what it takes
[A] [G] [D]
But there’s some one for each of us they say
