TAB : Wild Child (Lou Reed)



D G D
I was talking to Chuck in his Ghengis Khan suit and his wizard's hat

D G D
He spoke of his movie and how he was making a new soundtrack

C G
And then we spoke of kids on the coast

C G
and different types of organic soa p

C G
And the way suicides don't leave notes


Am D
Then we spoke of Lorraine, always back to Lorraine


D G D
I was speaking to Phil who was given to pills and small racing cars

D G D
He had given 'em up since his last crack-up had carried him too far




C G
Then we spoke of movies and verse

C G
and the way an actress held her purse

C G
And the way life at times could get wors e

A D
Then we spoke of Lorraine, always back to Lorraine




D G D G
Ah, she's a wild child a nd nobody can get at her

She's a wild child oh, and nobody can get to her




Bm G
Sleeping out on the street

D G
Oh, living all alon e

D G
without a house or a home

F#m
and then she asked you, please

A
hey baby, can I have some spare change

D
Oh, can I break your heart

D G
She's a wild chi ld

D G
She's a wild chi ld




I was talking to Betty about her auditions

how they made her ill

The life of the theater is certainly fraught

with many spills and chills


But she calmed down after some wine

which is what happens most of the time

Then we sat and both spoke in rhyme

Till we spoke of Lorraine

ah, it's always back to Lorraine


I was talking to Ed who'd been reported dead

by mutual friends

He thought it was funny that I had no money

to spend on him


So we both shared a piece of sweet cheese

and sang of our lives and our dreams

And how things can come apart at the seams

And we talked of Lorraine

always back to Lorraine


She's a wild child

and nobody can get at her

She's a wild child

oh, and nobody can get to her




Sleeping out on the street

Oh, living all alone

without a house or a home

and then she asked you, please

oh baby, can I have some spare change

Now can I break your heart




She's a wild child

she's a wild child
