Start Jamming...
I'm [G]
going to [E] sing a song.
[A] This is a true story
[G#m] about a guy I knew that, uh,
he used to sit right over there
and, uh, he mixed the monitors
on stage, you know.
[E]
He met a [A] really beautiful girl
and that's [F#m] where the sad part [B] comes in.
[A]
[E]
[B]
She [E] was
standing at the loading
[A] [B] when the
trucks [E] rolled up
[A] [E]
She [A] was swimming all
around like a half-grown female [E] pup
[A] She [E]
[A]
wasn't hard
to talk to
Looked like [E] she had nowhere [C#m] to go
So [E] I gave her
a pass so she [A] could get in
[B] and see the [E] show
[A] [E]
[B] [E] Then I sat her
down right next to [A]
me
[B] and I got her [E] a beer
[A] Well, [E] [F#m] [E] [A] I
mixed that sound on the stage
so the band could [E]
hear
[A] [E] Oh, [F#m] [E] [A]
I watched her
watch him play
[E] the less I thought of [C#m] to say
When [E] they walked off stage
the [A] drummers swept that [B] girl away
[E]
[A] [E]
[F#m] [E] [A]
Rosie, you're [E] all right
You wear my
[A] ring When you
hold [E] me tight, Rosie
that's my [A] thing
When you turn out [E] the light
I got to hand [C#m] it to me
[E]
[A] Looks like it's me
and you [B] again tonight [E] Rosie
Well, [A] [E]
[B]
[A]
[E] I guess I
might have known from [A] the start
[B] she'd come for a [E] star
[A]
[E] [F#m]
[E] [A] Could have
told my imagination
not to run [E] too far
[A] [E]
Of [F#m] [E]
[A] all the times
that I've been burned
[E]
by now you think
[C#m] I'd have learned
[D#] [E] that it's who you look like
[A] not [B] who you [E] are
You ought to keep that in mind
[F#m] [G#m] [A]
Rosie, you're [E] all right
You [F#m] wear [A] my
ring When you hold
[E] me tight, Rosie
that's my [A] thing When you
turn out the [E] light I got
to hand [C#m] it to me
[E]
[A] Looks like it's me and you again [B] tonight
[E]
[A] Looks like it's me and
you again [B] tonight
[A] Looks like it's me and
you again [B] tonight [E] Rosie
