These are the chords from the excellent song "If She Knew What She
Wants," written and performed by Jules Shear on his 1985 EMI
release "The Eternal Return."  The Bangles did a pretty good version of
it at some point.

This just shows the chord structure, i.e. it probably won't match up
with anyone's recording as it's written. Jules plays it in I think D,
and the Bangles play it in B.  You'll have to transpose/affix capo
based on how you want to play it.

And, of course, you'll need to check a recording for the exact lyrics
and song structure.  I didn't include any sections that have a chord
structure that appears previously in the song.

Section 1

A                       D          E
If she knew . . . . giving it to her

A                       D                E
If she knew . . . . give her that too

A                       D            E
If she knew . . . . can't see through her

         F#m        E             D             Bm                   E
If she knew . . . wants . . . giving . . . giving it to to her


Section 2

D              F#m
I'd say . . . values are corrupted

            E          A
But . . . open to change

              D
Then one day . . . .

            F#m
And the next . . .

            E                      Bm  E
And it's nothing . . . . explain


Section 3

E             A
Some . . . style

             D            A
That . . . work . . . refine

          F#m        E
So . . . walk . . . line

(second half of section 3 has the same chord structure)
