Wild Child Lou Reed
I was talking t[D]o Chuck in his Genghis Khan su[G]it
and his [D]wizard's hat
He spoke of his movie and [G]how he was making
a [D]new soundtrack
And [C]then we spoke of [G]kids on the [D]coast
and [C]different types of [G]organic [D]soap
And [C]the way sui[G]cides don't leave [D]notes
Then we spoke of [A]Lorraine
always back to Lorraine
[D]I was speaking to Phil who was [G]given to pills
and small [D]racing cars
He had given 'em up since his [G]last crack-up
had carried [D]him too far
[C]Then we spoke of [G]movies and v[D]erse
and [C]the way an [G]actress held her [D]purse
And [C]the way life at [G]times could get [D]worse
Then we spoke of [A]Lorraine
always back to Lorraine
Ah, [D]she's a wild [G]child
and [D]nobody can get [G]at her
[D]She's a wild [G]child
oh, and [D]nobody can get [G]to her
[Bm]Sleeping out on the [G]street
[D]Oh, living all [G]alone
[D]without a house or a [G]home
and then she asked you, [Fm#]please
hey baby, [A]can I have some spare change
Oh, can I break y[D]our heart
She's a wild [G]child[D]
she's a wild [G]child[D]
[D]I was talking to Betty [G]about her auditions
how they [D]made her ill
The life of the theater is [G]certainly fraught
with many [D]spills and chills
[C]But she calmed down [G]after some [D]wine
[C]which is what happens [G]most of the [D]time
[C]Then we sat and [G]both spoke in [D]rhyme
Till we spoke of [A]Lorraine
ah, it's always back to Lorraine
[D]I was talking to Ed who'd been [G]reported dead
by [D]mutual friends
He thought it was funny [G]that I had no money
[D]to spend on him
[C]So we both shared a [G]piece of sweet [D]cheese
[C]and sang of our [G]lives and our [D]dreams
[C]And how things can come [G]apart at the [D]seams
And we talked of [A]Lorraine
always back to Lorraine
[D]She's a wild [G]child
oh, and [D]nobody can get [G]at her
[D]She's a wild [G]child
oh, and [D]nobody can get [G]to her
[Bm]Sleeping out on the [G]street
[D]Oh, living all [G]alone
[D]without a house or a [G]home
and then she asked you, [F#m]please
oh baby, [A]can I have some spare change
Now can I break y[D]our heart
She's a wild [G]child[D]
she's a wild [G]child[D]
