Little Girl Lost chords by Kris Kristofferson

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

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