Skinny Legs Lyle Lovett
Here's a Lyle Lovett song. I think I actually understand this one.
>From the album "I Love Everybody"
SKINNY LEGS
Written and performed by Lyle Lovett
The tab section of this arrangement sounds like what he plays
throughout the entire song and IMHO it works quite well

Skinny Legs
[G]See that boy with that [Csus2]guitar
[G]He's got s[C]kinny legs [G]like I[A7sus4/F#] always wa[G]nted
A [G]girlfriend in his car[Csus2] 'cause
He's [G]got s[C]kinny legs l[G]ik[A7sus4/F#]e I always[G] wanted
Now [Csus2]sister look at me again
[G]Well you'd love [C]me if [G]I were as [A7sus4/F#]skinny as [G]him
And see that boy with that guitar
He's got a shirt and tie like I always wanted
A girlfriend in his car 'cause
He's got a shirt and tie like I always wanted
Now sister look at me again
Well you'd love me if I were a dresser like him
See that boy with that guitar
He's got a blue Toyota like I always wanted
A Japanese girl in his car
It's a blue Toyota like I always wanted
Now sister look at me again
Well you'd love me if I were a driver like him
See that boy with that guitar
He's got a baby face like I always wanted
A girlfriend in his car 'cause
He's got a baby face like I always wanted
Now sister look at me again
Well you'd love me if I were a looker like him
And see that boy with that guitar
He's got a little round . . . like I always wanted
A girlfriend in his car 'cause
He's got a little round . . . like I always wanted
Now sister look at me again
Well you'd love me if I had an . . . like him
You'd [G]love [C]me if [G]that were [A7sus4/F#]my rear en[G]d
But [G]legs they come and [C]faces [G]go
Just[C] like [A7sus4/F#]old Toyota[G]s
The Jap girl [G]dumped my ass and stole my[Csus2] clothes
[G]She took[C] my car [G]and left[A7sus4/F#] me singin[G]g
[G]See that boy with that [Csus2]guitar
[G]He's got s[C]kinny legs [G]like I[A7sus4/F#] always wa[G]nted
A [G]girlfriend in his car[Csus2] 'cause
He's [G]got s[C]kinny legs l[G]ik[A7sus4/F#]e I always[G] wanted
