Jill Sobule is a singer/songwriter with a flair for lyrics and
arrangments. Her self-titled debut is out on Lava/Atlantic. I recommend it
highly! Here's her first single off the album, also playing as a music
video right now.

I KISSED A GIRL
(Jill Sobule, Robin Eaton (c) 1994)
reprinted without permission


VERSE:
G
Genny came over and told me about Fred
     C
He's such a hairy behemoth she said
    Am
And dumb as a box of hammers
         G
But he's such a handsome guy
      G
And I opened up and told her about Larry
   C
And yesterday how he asked me to marry
   Am
I'm not giving him an answer yet
  G
I think I can do better


CHORUS:
     Em           Am
So we laughed, compared notes
   Em
We had a drink, we had a smoke
Am           C
She took off her overcoat
         G   C  Em  A
I kissed a girl
         G   C  Em  A
I kissed a girl


VERSE:
So she called home to say she'd be late
He said, he worried but now he'd feel safe
I'm glad you're with your girlfriend,
Tell her "Hi" for me
So I looked at you, you had guilt in your eyes
But it only lasted a little while
And then I felt your hand upon my knee


CHORUS:
       Em             Am
And we laughed at the world
Em
They can have their diamonds
    Am             C
And we'll have our pearls
         G   C  Em  A
I kissed a girl
         G   C  Em  A
I kissed a girl


BRIDGE:
  F
I kissed a girl, her lips were sweet
C
She was just like kissing me
  D
I kissed a girl, won't change the world

But I'm so glad
         G
I kissed a girl


(GUITAR SOLO)


And we laughed at the world
They can have their diamonds
And we'll have our pearls
I kissed a girl (for the first time)
I kissed a girl (and I may do it again)
I kissed a girl
I kissed a girl

I kissed a girl, her lips were sweet
She was just like kissing me (but better)
I kissed a girl

I kissed a girl, won't change the world
But I'm so glad
I kissed a girl (for the first time)
I kissed a girl (won't be the last time)
I kissed a girl
I kissed a girl
