"Punk Rock Girl" by the Dead Milkmen
transcribed by Matt Ransford <chunk@monkey.org>

This is maybe one of the greatest songs ever written,
punk or otherwise. Enjoy. I wrote this up because the
other version in the database is totally wrong.

Intro:

F     F    F     Dm     
F     F    Dm    F      
A#    F    C     F      

F                     A#            F
One Saturday I took a walk to Zipperhead
F                          A#                C
I met a girl there and she almost knocked me dead
           Dm           A#       
(Punk rock girl) Please look at me
           Am         A#  
(Punk rock girl) What do you see?
      F      C         Dm          A#      C            F
Let's travel round the world, just you and me punk rock girl
 
I tapped her on the shoulder and said "Do you have a beau?"
She looked at me and smiled and said she did not know
(Punk rock girl) Give me a chance
(Punk rock girl) Let's go slam dance
We'll dress like Minnie Pearl just you and me punk rock girl

C              G            C           G                C
We went to the Philly Pizza company and ordered some hot tea
    G                  C      G            C
The waitress said well no, we only have it iced
      G                C         G           C 
So we jumped up on the table and shouted anarchy
    G                C               G          C 
And someone played a Beach Boys song on the jukebox
        G          C        G             C         
It was "California Dreamin" so we started screamin
   G               C     C/E  C/G  A#  A#/A  A#/G
On such a winter's day

F                          A#           F
She took me to her parents for a Sunday meal
F                                  A#          C  
Her father took one look at me and he began to squeal
           Dm       A#
(Punk rock girl) It makes no sense
                      Am             A#
(Punk rock girl) Your daddy's a vice president
     F      C       Dm         A#         C            F
Rich as the Duke of Earl yeah, you're for me punk rock girl
 

We went to a shopping mall and laughed at all the shoppers
The security guards trailed us to a record shop
We asked for Mojo Nixon, they said "He don't work here"
We said if you don't got Mojo Nixon then your store could use some fixin
 
F                    A#             F
We got into her car away we started rollin
F                                             A#               C
I said "how much you pay for this?" she said "Nothin man, it's stolen"
           Dm        A#
(Punk rock girl) You look so wild
           Am          A#
(Punk rock girl) Let's have a child
      F        C      Dm
We'll name her Minnie Pearl 
     A#      C      F       C    Dm
Just you and me Eat fudge banana swirl
     A#      C        F      C         Dm
Just you and me We'll travel round the world 
     A#      C            F
Just you and me punk rock girl
