Song: You Need A New Lover Now
Artist: Murray McLauchlan
Transcribed by Alan Kinkle (alkinkle@erols,com)
I first heard this song in the mid '70's and have been playing it ever
since. I believe it's from the album "Day to Day Dust". I learned it by
ear and haven't actually heard a recording for 20 odd years so some of the
words might be wrong, but this is how I remember and play it. Any
corrections are welcomed.

Singing little girl's blues While it's starting to rain

'Cause you'll go out and do exactly what it is you want
