Little Girl Lost - Kris Kristofferson
This KK classic is the only song I know that changes key six times.
It starts in Am, and if you want to play along with the music, put
a Capo on the first fret. The pick and strum style is used through
out the song.
Intro: CAPO on fret #1

Am
See the little girl lost, walkin’ through this world alone.
E7 Am
She ain’t lookin’ for a lover, she’s just lookin’ for a home.
Verse 2
G F G
If you want more than sympathy then look for something else,
F G
‘Cause she’s not true to anyone not even to herself.
C
She’ll have sixteen smilin’ strangers who are handin’ her a line,
G
While she’s drawin’ dirty pictures on the black side of your mind.
D C G
With a body she’ll let anybody hold, but the devil’s got her soul.
Chorus

But if you take her, take her easy,
G A D
Treat her gentle, she used to love me.
Verse 3
Bm
See the little girl lost, pleadin’ silently for help.
F#7 Bm
Knowin’ no one understands her, she don’t understand herself.
Verse 4
A G A
She’ll feed your hungry ego ‘til you think you’re quite a man,
G A
But you’d better count your fingers when she turns loose of your hand.
D
‘Cause you’re just a game she’s playin’ any way that she can win,
A
And you ain’t about to touch her any deeper than her skin,
E D A
In that body anybody can control, but the devil’s got her soul.
Chorus

But if you take her, take her easy,
A B7 E
Treat her gentle, she used to love me.
