Am       E7        E7b9
I have a very good friend
                              Am
The kind of girl who likes to follow a trend
          E7       E7b9
She has a personal style
                            Am
Some people like it, others tend to go wild
             G
You hear her voice everywhere
E7
Taking the chair
Am      C/G     F  E
She's a leading lady
    Am                   A7     Dm
And with no trace of hesitation she keeps going
 
Dm7       G7
Head over heels
             G6
Breaking her way
G                               E     Am
Pushing through unknown jungles every day
        G    F      Esus          Am
She's a girl with a taste for the world
     Am                      A7           Dm
(The world is like a playing-ground where she goes rushing)
Dm7       G7
Head over heels
            G6
Setting the pace
G                         E        Am
Running the gauntlet in a whirl of lace
         G    F       E           Am
She's extreme, if you know what I mean
 
 
Am       E7        E7b9
Her man is one I admire
                              Am
He's so courageous but he's constantly tired
          E7       E7b9
Each time when he speaks his mind
                            Am
She pats his head and says, "That's all very fine
             G
Exert that will of your own
E7
When you're alone
Am      C/G     F  E
Now we'd better hurry"
    Am                   A7     Dm
And with no trace of hesitation she keeps going

She's a girl with a taste for the world
  (The world is like a playing-ground where she goes rushing)

She's extreme, if you know what I mean

She's a girl with a taste for the world
  (She's just one of those who always has to do whatever she please)
E7
And she goes
          Am
Head over heels
