The Beatles - Norwegian Wood

[intro] x2
E  Bm  E

[verse 1]
E
I once had a girl
                     Bm           E
Or should I say, she once had me?
E
She showed me her room
                    Bm           E
"Isn't it good, Norwegian wood?"

[chorus 1]
    Em
She asked me to stay
                            A
and she told me to sit anywhere
   Em
So I looked around and I noticed
               F#5    B5  B
there wasn't a chair

[verse 2]
E
I sat on the rug
                     Bm       E
Biding my time, drinking her wine
E
We talked until two
                         Bm       E
And then she said, "It's time for bed"

E  Bm  E

[chorus 2]
    Em
She told me she worked
                              A
in the morning and started to laugh
   Em
I told her I didn't and
                             F#   B5  B
crawled off to sleep in the bath

[verse 3]
E
And when I awoke
                   Bm        E   Bm
I was alone, this bird had flown
E
So I lit a fire
                   Bm    E
Isn't it good, Norwegian wood?

E  Bm  E  B5
