Intro:

Am  F  Dm  Em  G (x2)

Verse 1:

Am*/Ab/Am*               F   /E/F
        My girl's mad at me.
Am*/Ab/Am*      Dm
 I didn't wanna see the film tonight.

Am*/Ab/Am*                 F   /E/F
        I found it hard to say.
Am*/Ab/Am*             Dm
 She thought I'd had e-nough of her.

Chorus 1:

C    C/B       Am   Dm    Em7       G
 Why can't she see; she's lovely to me?
C      C/B          Am
 But I like to stay in,
    Am/G    F  Am    Dm
And watch T.V. on my own, every now and then.

Verse 2:

Am*/Ab/Am*               F   /E/F
        My girl's mad at me.
Am*/Ab/Am*        Dm
 Been on the tele-phone for an hour.

Am*/Ab/Am*               F     /E/F
        We hardly said a word.
Am*/Ab/Am*              Dm
 I tried and tried, but I could not be heard.

Chorus 2: 

C    C/B        Am     Dm       Em7       G
 Why can't I ex-plain? Why do I feel this pain?
C           C/B     Am       Am/G    F     Am
 'Cos every-thing I say, she doesn't under-stand,
            Dm                    Dm7           G
She doesn't realise; she takes it all the wrong way.

(Piano Solo)

Am*/Ab/Am*, F/E/F, Am*/Ab/Am*, Dm (x2)

Verse 4:

Am*/Ab/Am*               F   /E/F
        My girl's mad at me.
Am*/Ab/Am*          Dm
 We argued just the other night.
Am*/Ab/Am*                 F       /E/F
     I thought we'd got it straight,
Am*/Ab/Am*                Dm
 We talked and talked, un-til it was light.

Chorus 3:

C  C/B            Am     Dm Em7          G
 I thought we'd a-greed, I  thought we'd talked it out.
C           C/B    Am         Am/G      F       Am
 Now when I try to speak, she says that I don't care,
             Dm       Dm7                  G
She says I'm unaware, and now she says I'm weak.

Outro:

Am  F  Dm  Em  G, Am
